Newton's first and second laws

Front

What happens to the acceleration of an object if you increase its mass?

Back

The acceleration decreases.

Front

What is the formula that relates force, mass, and acceleration?

Back

F = Ma

Front

If you increase the force applied to an object, what happens to its acceleration?

Back

The acceleration also increases.

Front

What is the term for the resistance to a change in motion?

Back

Inertia

Front

What is Newton's First Law known as?

Back

The Law of Inertia.

Front

If an object has a mass of 300 kg and accelerates at 4 m/s², what is the force required?

Back

1200 N.

Front

What is the relationship between force and acceleration according to Newton's Second Law?

Back

Force is directly proportional to acceleration.

Front

What does inertia depend on?

Back

Inertia depends on the mass of an object.

Front

What is the effect of gravity on an object's motion?

Back

Gravity pulls objects towards the center of the Earth, affecting their motion.

Front

How does mass affect the acceleration of an object when a constant force is applied?

Back

Greater mass results in lower acceleration.
