What is Newton's 1st Law of Motion?

Back

An object in motion stays in motion, and an object at rest stays at rest unless acted upon by an external force.

Front

What is Newton's 2nd Law of Motion?

Back

The acceleration of an object is directly proportional to the net force acting on it and inversely proportional to its mass (F=ma).

Front

What is Newton's 3rd Law of Motion?

Back

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

Front

What is net force?

Back

The combination of all the forces acting on an object.

Front

What does inertia refer to?

Back

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

Front

What is the formula for calculating force?

Back

Force = mass x acceleration (F = ma).

Front

What is the relationship between mass and acceleration in Newton's 2nd Law?

Back

As mass increases, acceleration decreases if the net force remains constant.

Front

What is an example of Newton's 1st Law in everyday life?

Back

A passenger lurches forward in a car when it suddenly stops.

Front

What is an example of Newton's 3rd Law in action?

Back

When you jump off a small boat, you push the boat backward as you move forward.

Front

What does a flat line on a distance-time graph indicate?

Back

The object is not moving.
