Newtons Laws of Motion
Question | Answer |
---|---|
Newton's 1st Law of Motion is called _________________________ | The Law of Inertia |
Newton's 2nd Law of Motion is called _________________________ | The Law of Force and Acceleration |
Newton's 3rd Law of Motion is called _________________________ | The Law of Action Reaction |
What is inertia? | The tendency of an object to resist a change in motion. |
Force is ________________________________. | A push or pull. |
Acceleration is _______________________________________. | The change in the speed or velocity of an object. |
What are the 3 ways to accelerate? | Speed up, slow down, or turn. |
State the Law of Inertia: | Objects in motion stay in motion, and objects at rest stay at rest until acted upon by an unbalanced force. |
State the Law of Force and Acceleration: | Objects with more mass require more force to accelerate; objects with less mass require less force and will accelerate faster. F=ma |
State the Law of Action Reaction: | For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. |
Unbalanced forces are _________________________. | forces that cause a change in motion or cause an object to accelerate. |
Balanced forces are ______________________________. | forces that don't change the motion of an object: it stays at rest or stays in constant motion. |
