The measure of how much an object keeps moving, combining its mass and speed.

• kinetic energy

• potential energy

• momentum

• newton's first law (interia)

NGSS.MS-PS3-1

The resistance of an object to changes in its state of motion, either at rest or in motion, due to its mass.  (An unbalanced force is something that causes a change in the motion of an object).

• kinetic energy

• potential energy

• momentum

• newton's first law (interia)

Force equals mass times acceleration (F=ma).

• newton's first law

• newton's second law

• newton's third law

• acceleration
