Forces and Newton's Laws Quiz

What is the tendency of an object to resist a change in motion?

• Velocity

• Acceleration

• Force

• Inertia

• Motion

The force that opposes the motion of an object. It always acts in the opposite

direction from the object’s motion.

• gravity

• Acceleration

• Force

• Inertia

• friction

The attractive force between two object that depends on the masses of the

objects and the distance between them.

• gravity

• Acceleration

• Force

• Inertia

• friction

What two things affect gravity?

• mass

• motion

• speed

• distance

If the force on an object was increased, then the object’s acceleration would

• increase

• decrease

If the mass of an object was increased, then the object’s acceleration would

• increase

• decrease

What is the formula for force according to Newton's 2nd Law of Motion?

• F = m * a

• F = m - a

• F = m / a

• F = m + a

What is the formula for force according to Newton's 2nd Law of Motion?

• F = m * a

• F = m - a

• F = m / a

• F = m + a

What is the formula for force according to Newton's 2nd Law of Motion?

• Force = mass * acceleration

• F = m - a

• F = m / a

• F = m + a

Which Newton's Law of Motion is this?

When an unbalanced force acts on an object

it will accelerate in the direction of the

applied force.

• Newton's 1st
