Multiple Choice

What is Newton's First Law of Motion?

• Force = mass x acceleration

• Momentum depends on an object's mass and velocity

• An object at rest will stay at rest and an object in motion will stay in motion unless acted upon by an unbalanced/outside force

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

Multiple Choice

What is Newton's Second Law of Motion?

• Force = mass x acceleration

• Momentum depends on an object's mass and velocity

• An object at rest will stay at rest and an object in motion will stay in motion unless acted upon by an unbalanced/outside force

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

Multiple Choice

What is Newton's Third Law of Motion?
