Recognizing Newton's 3 Laws
Let's see if you can identify Examples of Newton's 3 Laws
2
Multiple Choice
What is Newton's First Law?
For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction.
The acceleration of an object depends on the mass of the object and the amount of force applied. F= m x a
An object in motion stays in motion and an object at rest stays at rest, UNLESS it is acted upon by an outside force.
3
Multiple Choice
True or False: Newton’s first law of motion is also called the law of acceleration.
True
False
4
Multiple Choice
True or False: The motion of an object changes only when it is acted on by an unbalanced force.
True
False
5
Multiple Choice
True or False: If the net force acting on an object is zero, it does not move.
True
False
6
Multiple Choice
True or False: Newton’s first law of motion applies only to objects that are already moving.
True
False
7
Now Let's see if you can Identify Example of Newton's First Law

A book slides across the desk when you exert a force on it.
A zookeeper tries to push on and elephant it does not move.
A cannon shoots a cannon ball at a ship. As the cannon ball comes out the cannon is forced backwards.
A bowling ball keeps rolling to the end of the lane until its stopped by the bowling pins.

Multiple Choice
What is Newton's Second Law?
For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction.
An object in motion stays in motion and an object at rest stays at rest, UNLESS it is acted upon by an outside force.
The acceleration of an object depends on the mass of the object and the amount of force applied. F = m x a
10
Multiple Choice
True or False: A 10-kg object has greater acceleration due to gravity than a 5-kg object.
True
False
11
Multiple Choice
True or False: The acceleration of an object equals its mass times the net force applied to it. F= m x a
True
False
12
Multiple Choice
True or False: Newton determined that there is a direct relationship between force and mass.
True
False

A person the car flies forward when the car stops suddenly.
A hammer strikes a nail with a downward force and the nail exerts and equal upward force on the hammer.
14
Multiple Choice
What is Newton's 3rd Law?
For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction.
An object in motion stays in motion and an object at rest stays at rest, UNLESS it is acted upon by an outside force.
The acceleration of an object depends on the mass of the object and the amount of force applied. F = m x a
15
Multiple Choice
