Newton's Laws

Front

What is the net force when all forces acting on an object are balanced?

Back

0 N

Front

What is the term for the tendency of an object to resist a change in motion?

Back

Inertia

Front

What is the net force if an object is being pulled down with 400 N?

Back

400 N Down

Front

What does the equation F = M x A represent?

Back

Newton's Second Law of Motion

Front

What happens when two teams pull with the same amount of force?

Back

They will not move at all.

Front

What is the term for the force that pulls objects toward the Earth?

Back

Gravity

Front

What is the first law of motion?

Back

An object at rest stays at rest, and an object in motion stays in motion unless acted upon by a net external force.

Front

What is the unit of force in the metric system?

Back

Newton (N)

Front

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

Back

Acceleration is directly proportional to net force and inversely proportional to mass.

Front

What is inertia in terms of mass?

Back

Inertia is the property of an object that depends on its mass; more mass means more inertia.
