• biologists

• anthropoligists

• motionologists

• physicists

An objects tendency to stay in motion or at rest

• force

• gravity

• intertia

• magnetism

You are in a car and the driver slams on the breaks. Your body flies forward (your seatbelt keeps you from going too far). Why does this happen?

• Your body is still moving at the same speed of the car until it is stopped by the seatbelt. AKA Inertia

• Your body is still moving at the same speed of the car until it is stopped by the seatbelt. AKA Gravity

• Your body is still moving at the same speed of the car until it is stopped by the seatbelt. AKA Electricity

• Your body is still moving at the same speed of the car until it is stopped by the seatbelt. AKA acceleration

• speed

• acceleration

• motion

• velocity

Tags

NGSS.MS-PS3-1

An object's motion and speed in a particular direction

• velocity

• force

• acceleration

• mass

Known as the "law of inertia" Newton's _ Law states that objects tend to keep doing what they are already doing.

• Newton's First Law of Motion

• Newton's Second Law of Motion

• Newton's Third Law of Motion

This law states that an object will go in the direction of the force that was acted upon it and the more mass an object has the more force is required to use it.

• Newton's First Law of Motion

• Newton's Second Law of Motion

• Newton'sThird Law of Motion
