Unit 2 Test Review

Fill in the blank: According to Newton's First Law of Motion, an object at rest will stay at _____, and an object in motion will stay in _____ unless an unbalanced force acts on the object.

• rest; motion

• motion; rest

• rest; rest

• motion; motion

When forces on an object combine and form a net force that is equal to zero, what happens to the motion of the object?

• The object speeds up

• The object slows down

• There is no change in the motion of the object

• The object changes direction

In the example shown, the force of the ground pushing upward on the ball is F1 = 10 N, and the force of gravity pulling downward on the ball is F2 = 10 N. What is the net force acting on the ball?

• 0 N

• 5 N upward

• 20 N downward

• 10 N upward
