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

• Newton's 1st Law

• Newton's 2nd Law

• Newton's 3rd Law

• Law of gravity

The balloon car will stay at rest until acted upon by what law of motion?

• Newton's Law of inertia

• Force = mass X acceleration

• for every action there is and equal and opposite reaction

• the car did not move

Which engineering move does your group think would increase the distance the car traveled?

What two forces were acting on the balloon car that made it stop going forward

• law of gravity and air resistance

• friction force and air resistance

• gravity and friction forces

• none of these

A car lower and flatter would achieve more distance because of the

• reduction of air resistance

• decrease in friction

• decrease in gravitational forces

• none of these

Joe Schmoe's balloon car had a straw that was attached very loosely and as a result it went from side to side, explain why forward motion was decreased

• less air was released, decreasing reaction

• friction increased

• forward motion decreased as inertia changed directions

• air resistance increased

An increase in weight of the balloon car increased which force acting against the car's motion?

• friction

• air resistance

Sanding the wheels of the balloon car,increased the distance the car would travel because

• it reduced inertia

• it reduced friction

• it reduced air resistance

• none of these
