What does the first law of motion, also known as the law of inertia, state about an object's motion?

• It remains in its current state unless acted upon by an external force

• It will accelerate over time

• It will change direction randomly

• It will slow down gradually

Why is it harder to move a large sofa compared to a small stone?

• Due to its larger mass and inertia

• Because of its material

• Due to its color

• Because it is anchored to the ground

According to Newton's second law, what determines how fast an object accelerates?

• The object's temperature

• Its color and shape

• The volume of the object

• The force applied and its mass

What does Newton's second law state about force?

• Force equals mass times acceleration

• Force equals acceleration divided by mass

• Force is unrelated to mass and acceleration

• Force equals mass divided by acceleration

How does the mass of an object affect the force needed to move it, according to Newton's second law?

• Mass has no effect on the force needed

• More mass requires more force

• More mass requires less force

• More mass requires the same force

What is demonstrated by the action-reaction pairs in Newton's third law?

• Only action matters in motion

• Reaction happens before action

• Reaction is stronger than action

• Action and reaction are equal and opposite

How does the ground contribute to the motion of a bicycle according to Newton's third law?

• It pulls the bicycle backwards

• It has no effect on the bicycle

• It pushes the bicycle forward with equal force

• It absorbs all the force from the tires

What happens to the Earth when a bicycle tire pushes it backwards?

• Nothing happens to the Earth

• The Earth spins faster

• The Earth moves forwards

• The Earth moves backwards
