Force, Mass, Acceleration (Flashcardizz)

Front

What is Newton's First Law of Motion?

Back

An object will remain at rest or in uniform motion unless acted upon by a net external force.

Front

What is the formula to calculate force?

Back

Force (F) = Mass (m) × Acceleration (a)

Front

What is the unit of force?

Back

The unit of force is Newton (N).

Front

What does mass measure?

Back

Mass measures the amount of matter in an object, typically in kilograms (kg).

Front

What does acceleration measure?

Back

Acceleration measures the rate of change of velocity of an object, typically in meters per second squared (m/s²).

Front

If an object has a mass of 10 kg and accelerates at 2 m/s², what is the force applied?

Back

20 N

Front

What is net force?

Back

Net force is the total force acting on an object after all the forces are combined.

Front

How do you calculate net force when multiple forces are acting in the same direction?

Back

Add the magnitudes of the forces together.

Front

How do you calculate net force when forces are acting in opposite directions?

Back

Subtract the smaller force from the larger force.

Front

What is the relationship between mass and acceleration in Newton's Second Law?

Back

For a constant force, an increase in mass results in a decrease in acceleration.
