• Newton's 1st Law

• Newton's 2nd Law

• Newton's 3rd Law

"Force = Mass x Acceleration"

• Newton's 1st Law

• Newton's 2nd Law

• Newton's 3rd Law

• Newton's 1st Law

• Newton's 2nd Law

• Newton's 3rd Law

What unit of measurement is used to measure force?

• Kilogram

• Metre

• Pascal

• Newton

What unit of measurement is used to measure mass?

• Grams

• Kilograms

• Tonnes

The tendency of a moving object to resist changes in its motion is known as:

• Inertia

• Force

• Acceleration

• Velocity

This force opposes motion between two surfaces that are in contact with each other.

• Inertia

• Momentum

• Friction

• Gravity

This force opposes motion between a surface in contact with the atmosphere.

• Air resistance

• Momentum

• Gravity

• Terminal velocity

Mass x Acceleration =

• Inertia

• Force

• Momentum

• Velocity

According to Newton's 2nd Law of Motion, force is equal to mass times:

• Inertia

• Weight

• Acceleration

• Direction
