Front

The tendency of an object to stay in motion or at rest is called?

Back

Front

As the wheels of a train push down on the track, the track pushes back against the wheels. Which of Newton's laws is used to explain these forces?

Back

For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.

Front

What is Newton's First Law of Motion?

Back

An object at rest tends to stay at rest and an object in motion tends to stay in motion unless acted upon by an unbalanced force.

Front

What is Newton's Second Law of Motion?

Back

The net force of an object is equal to its mass times its acceleration (F=ma).

Front

What is Newton's Third Law of Motion?

Back

For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.

Front

What is inertia?

Back

The resistance of any physical object to any change in its velocity.

Front

What is the formula for calculating force?

Back

Force = Mass x Acceleration (F=ma).
