Which describes velocity?

the direction an object is moving

Which example shows NO acceleration?

going straight at a constant speed

going straight while slowing down

A picture is hanging on a wall and does not move. This is an example of -

Newton's Law of Force and Acceleration (2nd)

Newton's Law of Action and Reaction (3rd)

A person not wearing a seatbelt flies through a car window when someone slams on the breaks because the person’s body wants to remain in continuous motion even when the car stops. This is an example of -

Newton's Law of Force and Acceleration (2nd)

Newton's Law of Action and Reaction (3rd)

An object at rest will remain at rest unless acted on by an unbalanced force. An object in motion continues in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by an unbalanced force. This is -

Newton's Law of Force and Acceleration (2nd)

Newton's Law of Action and Reaction (3rd)

For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. This is -

Newton's Law of Action-Reaction (3rd)

Newton's Law of Force and Acceleration (2nd)

Acceleration is produced when a force acts on a mass. The greater the mass (of the object being accelerated) the greater the amount of force needed (to accelerate the object). This is -

Newton's Law of Force and Acceleration (2nd)

Newton's Law of Action-Reaction (3rd)

The swimmer moves her hand down and to the left and her body goes forward to the right. This is an example of -

Newton's Law of Action - Reaction (3rd)

Newton's Law of Force and Acceleration (2nd)

A rocket is sent into space. When the power dies out, the rocket will just keep floating and moving in space forever (unless an unbalanced force, such as a meteor, runs into it). This is an example of -

Newton's Law of Force and Acceleration (2nd)

Newton's Law of Action - Reaction (3rd)

A soccer ball accelerates more than a bowling ball when thrown with the same force. This is an example of -

Newton's Law of Force and Acceleration (2nd)

Newton's Law of Action - Reaction (3rd)

Pushing a child on a swing is easier than pushing an adult on the same swing, because the adult has more mass/inertia. This is an example of -

Newton's Law of Force and Acceleration (2nd)

Newton's Law of Action - Reaction (3rd)

Rockets are launched into space using jet propulsion where exhaust accelerates out from the rocket and the rocket accelerates in an opposite direction. This is an example of -

Newton's Law of Action - Reaction (3rd)

Newton's Law of Force and Acceleration (2nd)

A magician pulls a tablecloth out from under dishes and glasses on a table without disturbing them. This is an example of -

Newton's Law of Force and Acceleration (2nd)

Newton's Law of Action - Reaction (3rd)

If a force of 26 N is exerted on two balls, one with a mass of 5 kg and the other with a mass of 8 kg, which ball will have the greater acceleration? (F=ma)

The one with a mass of 5 kg will have the greatest acceleration.

The one with a mass of 8 kg will have the greatest acceleration.

They will both accelerate at the same rate.

In a football game, two players tackle each other so hard that they both fly in opposite directions after they hit each other. This is an example of -

Newton's Law of Force and Acceleration (2nd)

Newton's Law of Action-Reaction (3rd)

A student leaves a pencil on a desk and it stays there until I pick it up. This is an example of -

Newton's Law of Force and Acceleration (2nd)

Newton's Law of Action - Reaction (3rd)

A person in car slides to the right when going through a very sharp left turn on the highway. This is an example of -

Newton's Law of Force and Acceleration (2nd)

Newton's Law of Action-Reaction (3rd)

A soccer player kicks a ball with their foot and their toes are left stinging. This is an example of -

Newton's Law of Action - Reaction (3rd)

Newton's Law of Force and Acceleration (2nd)

Two students are in a baseball game. One student hits a ball hard and it has a greater acceleration than the 2nd student who bunts the ball lightly. This is an example of -
