VA PS 10 Newton's Laws

Newton's 1st Law of Motion

• Law of Inertia

• Law of Force Pairs

• Law of Acceleration

Newton's 2nd Law of Motion

• Law of Inertia

• Law of Force Pairs

• Law of Acceleration

Newton's 3rd Law of Motion

• Law of Inertia

• Law of Force Pairs

• Law of Acceleration

An object at rest stays at rest and an object in motion stays in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by an unbalanced force

• Law of Inertia

• Law of Force Pairs

• Law of Acceleration

Force is equal to mass times acceleration (F=ma)

• Law of Inertia

• Law of Force Pairs

• Law of Acceleration

The greater the mass of an object being moved, the greater amount of force needed to move (accelerate) the object.

• Law of Inertia

• Law of Force Pairs

• Law of Acceleration

For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction.

• Law of Inertia (I)

• Law of Force Pairs (III)

• Law of Acceleration (II)

The force that pulls objects inward. It is what keeps us on the Earth.

• Friction

• Gravity

• Wind Resistance

This force is caused by objects rubbing together.

• Friction

• Gravity

• Wind Resistance

This force is caused by air and slows things down. It is sometimes called air friction.

• Mass

• Gravity

• Wind Resistance
