Newton's Laws of Motion

Forces on an object that do not change the motion of the object

• Balanced Forces

• UnBalanced Forces

• Collide

• Motion

To strike or hit something with any amount of force

• Friction

• Kinetic Energy

• Collide

• Unbalanced force

NGSS.MS-PS2-2

A force that resists the motion of two surfaces sliding across one another

• inertia

• collide

• force

• friction

The tendency of a physical object to remain still or continue moving unless force is applied

• Push

• Pull

• inertia

• Balanced Force

The change in an object’s position with respect to time and in comparison with the position of other objects used as reference points

• Pull

• Motion

• Direct Contact

• Collide

NGSS.MS-PS2-2

Newton’s law stating that for every action force there is an equal and opposite reaction force; often referred to as Newton’s third law of motion

• Inertia

• Collide

• Action-Reaction

• Net force

NGSS.MS-PS2-1

Newton’s law stating that acceleration of an object depends on the object's mass and the magnitude of the force acting upon it (F = ma); often referred to as Newton's second law of motion

• Force and Acceleration

• Action-Reaction

• Inertia

• Forces

NGSS.MS-PS2-2

Newton’s law stating that an object at rest stays at rest or an object in motion stays in motion until unbalanced forces act upon it; often referred to as Newton's first law of motion

• Law of Inertia

• Action-Reaction

• Acceleration

• Potential Energy

Resistance or force of equal magnitude acting in the opposite direction to an action force

• Friction

• Cause

• Magnetism

• Reaction
