What is Newton's First Law of motion?

An object at rest will stay at rest, and an object in motion will stay in motion with the same speed and in the same direction, unless acted upon by an external force.

An object at rest will start moving, and an object in motion will change its direction, unless acted upon by an external force.

An object at rest will stay at rest, and an object in motion will stop, unless acted upon by an external force.

An object at rest will stay at rest, and an object in motion will stay in motion with a different speed and in a different direction, unless acted upon by an external force.

Resistance of an object to changes in its motion.

The force that causes objects to move in a circular path.

The force that attracts objects towards each other.

The ability of an object to float in water.

What happens to acceleration if the mass decreases, but the force remains the same?

The acceleration will increase.

The acceleration will become zero.

The acceleration will remain the same.

The acceleration will decrease.

What is an object's net force?

The net force is the combination of all the forces acting on an object.

The net force is the force exerted by an object on its surroundings.

The net force is the force required to accelerate an object.

The net force is the force exerted by an object on other objects.

How does a rocket move through outer space without anything to push off of?

By expelling high-speed exhaust gases out of its engines

By using magnetic propulsion systems.

By generating a force field around the rocket to propel it forward.

By harnessing the gravitational pull of nearby celestial bodies.

What is an object's weight?

The force of gravity acting on an object

Why do astronauts seem weightless in orbit?

Astronauts are far away from the Earth's gravitational pull.

Astronauts are in a state of freefall around the Earth.

Astronauts are wearing special suits that make them feel weightless.

Astronauts are experiencing a decrease in their body mass while in orbit.

What would cause the gravitational force between object A and object B to increase?

Increasing the mass of object A.

Decreasing the mass of object A

Increasing the distance between them.

Decreasing the mass of both objects

What is Newton's Second Law of Motion?

The force acting on an object is equal to the mass of the object multiplied by its acceleration.

The force acting on an object is equal to the velocity of the object multiplied by its mass.

The force acting on an object is equal to the distance traveled by the object divided by the time taken.

The force acting on an object is equal to the product of its mass and gravitational acceleration.

What is Newton's third law of motion?

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

Newton's third law of motion states that objects at rest tend to stay at rest and objects in motion tend to stay in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by an unbalanced force.

For every action, there is a smaller and opposite reaction.

Every action has a greater reaction.

When does an object reach terminal velocity?

When the force of gravity equals the force of air resistance.

When the force of gravity is greater than the force of air resistance

When the object is in free fall

What is the law of conservation of momentum?

The law of conservation of momentum states that the total momentum of a closed system remains constant if no external forces act on it.

The law of conservation of momentum only applies to objects in motion.

The law of conservation of momentum only applies to objects at rest.

The law of conservation of momentum states that momentum can be created or destroyed.
