Physics Chapter 5: Newton's Laws of Motion

Which statements best describe Newton's first law of motion?

• objects at rest stay at rest unless acted upon by an outside force

• all motion is random

• objects at motion stay in motion unless acted upon by an outside force

• the force of an object is equal the product of its mass and its acceleration

A 4.97kg ball with a net force of 10.95 N has what acceleration?

Which statement best describes Newton's second law of motion?

• the force an object is equal to the product of its mass and its acceleration

• objects at rest stay at rest unless acted upon by outside forces

• the force of an object is equal to its mass divided by its acceleration

• the force of an object is equal to its acceleration divided by its mass
