Final Exam Semester 1

What is Newton's First Law known as? The Law of

• Friction
• Mass
• Inertia
• Gravity

The tendency of an object to resist a change in its motion

• acceleration
• inertia
• mass
• frame of reference

What kind(s) of objects have inertia?

• all objects with mass
• only objects at rest
• only objects in motion
• only objects whose motion is being changed

Objects at rest remain at rest and objects traveling at a steady rate in a straight line continue that way until a _________acts on them.  

• force
• velocity
• inertia
• acceleration 

which box has more acceleration?

• top

• bottom

which box has more acceleration?

• top

• bottom

It takes more force to accelerate the iron man on the left than the iron man on the right because the iron man on the left has more mass. This best describes

• Newton's first law, the law of inertia

• Newton's second law, the law of acceleration

• Newton's third law, the law of action reaction

• The law of universal gravitation

Newtons 3rd Law of Motion states:

• An object at rest will remain at rest unless acted upon by an outside force.

• For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction

• The greater the mass of an object, the more force it will take to accelerate the object

When you push a boat off from the dock, you are demonstrating Newton's 3rd Law of Motion. It simply states that for every action there is an equal and opposite _______________?

• Motion

• Reaction

• Change

• Push

A push or pull on an object is called...

• Acceleration

• Mass

• Inertia

• Force
