The video tutorial introduces Newton's three laws of motion, focusing on the first law. It explains how an object remains at rest or in motion unless acted upon by an unbalanced force. Demonstrations on the International Space Station (ISS) illustrate the concept of inertia and the effects of gravity. Practical examples, such as a skateboard and seat belts, further clarify the law's application in everyday life. The tutorial concludes with a recap of the key points discussed.

Who is the scientist known for formulating the three laws of motion?

• Galileo Galilei

• Albert Einstein

• Nikola Tesla

• Isaac Newton

What happens to an object in motion according to Newton's First Law?

• It will change direction without any force.

• It will eventually stop on its own.

• It will accelerate indefinitely.

• It will stay in motion unless acted upon by a force.

In the astronaut demonstration, what caused the ball to move initially?

What is the term used to describe the rate of change of velocity?

• Acceleration

• Inertia

• Speed

• Momentum

Why does the apple keep moving when the skateboard hits the pillar?

• Because the apple is heavier than the skateboard.

• Because the force was only applied to the skateboard.

• Because the apple is glued to the skateboard.

• Because the apple is in a vacuum.

What is the term for an object's resistance to changes in its state of motion?

• Acceleration

• Velocity

• Inertia

• Momentum

Why do we use seat belts according to Newton's First Law?

• To reduce fuel consumption

• To prevent us from moving forward in a sudden stop

• To keep us warm

• To make the car go faster

What happens to objects at rest according to Newton's First Law?

• They will start moving on their own.

• They will stay at rest unless acted upon by a force.

• They will change direction.

• They will accelerate.
