b)

The combination of all forces acting on an object.

c)

Point in an object that moves as if all the object's mass were concentrated in that point.

12.

Which of Newton's Laws of Motion does this picture show?

a)

Newton's First Law: an object at rest will stay at rest until an unbalanced force acts upon it An object in motion will remain in motion until an unbalanced force acts upon it.

b)

Newton's 2nd Law: Acceleration depends on force and mass.

c)

Newtons' 3rd Law: For ever action, there is an equal an opposite reaction.
