According to Newton's first law, an object in motion will stay in motion unless:

• An opposing force acts on it.

• It's in outer space.

• It stops.

• It remains at rest.

What might happen if you were in a braking car, and you weren't wearing your seat belt?

• You'd fly backward through the rear window.

• You'd be pressed backward into your seat

• You'd fly forward through the windshield.

• You'd move sideways through the passenger door

What causes a ball rolling across a rug to slow to a stop?

• The rug doesn't have enough force to hold the ball.

• Friction resists the ball's forward motion.

• The rug doesn't have enough momentum to keep the ball moving

• The ball isn't moving fast enough.

Which of the following is an opinion about friction?

According to Newton's third law, what happens when you push against a wall?

• The wall pushes back at you half as hard as you push against it.

• The wall doesn't resist at all.

• The wall pushes back at you with the same amount of force

• The wall pushes back at you twice as hard as you push against it.
