• On the Revolutions of the Heavenly Spheres

• Mathematical Principles of Natural Philosophy

• The Structure of Scientific Revolutions

• The Principia

What does Newton's first law of motion state?

• An object in motion stays in motion

• E=mc^2

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

• F=ma

What is inertia?

• The force of gravity acting on an object

• The speed at which an object falls to the ground

• The tendency of an object to resist changes in its state of motion

• A force that keeps objects in motion

What does the equation F=ma represent?

• The theory of relativity

• Newton's third law

• Newton's second law

• Newton's first law

What is mass?

• The force applied to an object

• The speed of an object

• The amount of stuff that makes up something

• The resistance an object has to moving

What is acceleration?

• The force applied to stop an object

• A change in speed or direction of something

• A change in the direction of something

• A constant speed

What does Newton's third law state?

• An object at rest stays at rest

• Force equals mass times acceleration

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

• Gravity is the force that attracts two bodies toward each other
