Galileo discovered the principle of __________.

• Resistance
• Force
• Inertia
• Acceleration

What is the principle of inertia?

• All matter, because of its mass, resists changes in motion.
• Some matter, because of its mass, resists changes in motion.
• All matter, because of its weight, resists changes in motion.
• Some matter, because of its mass, resists changes in motion.

The more mass, the more __________.

• Resistance
• Force
• Inertia
• Acceleration

What laws are the foundation of all rocket 

• Emotion
• Evolution
• Motion
• Acceleration

What is Newton’s First Law of Motion?

• Objects at rest remain at rest and objects in motion remain in motion in a straight line unless acted upon by an unbalanced force.
• Force equals mass times acceleration (or f = ma).
• For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction.

What is Newton’s Second Law of Motion?

• Objects at rest remain at rest and objects in motion remain in motion in a straight line unless acted upon by an unbalanced force.
• Force equals mass times acceleration (or f = ma).
• For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction.

What is Newton’s Third Law of Motion?

• Objects at rest remain at rest and objects in motion remain in motion in a straight line unless acted upon by an unbalanced force.
• Force equals mass times acceleration (or f = ma).
• For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction.
