Question
Answer
"An object at rest tends to stay at rest and an object in motion tends to stay in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by an unbalanced force."   Newton's First Law of Motion  
🗑
Who is the 17th century scientist who put forth a variety of laws which explain why objects move (or don't move" as they do?)   Sir Isaac Newton  
🗑
How many laws of motion did he create?   Three  
🗑
All objects ______ changes in their state of motion.   Resist  
🗑
Newton's first law of motion is also called the Law of ________.   Inertia  
🗑
It is the natural tendency of objects to _____ on doing what they're doing.   Keep  
🗑
Force = Mass x Acceleration this is ...   Newton's Second Law of Motion  
🗑
An object will _____ in the direction you push it.   Accelerate  
🗑
If you _____ it twice as hard, it accelerates twice as much.   Push  
🗑
If it has twice the _____, it accelerates half as much.   Mass  
🗑
"For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction", this is ...   Newton's Third Law of Motion  
🗑
This means that for every force there is a reaction force that is _____ in size, but opposite in direction.   Equal  
🗑
That is to say that whenever an object pushes another object it gets pushed back in the _____ direction equally hard.   Opposite  
🗑
"If you _____ on it, it pushes on you!"   Push  
🗑
Push or Pull   Force  
🗑
Pull   Gravity  
🗑
Resistance to change   Inertia  
🗑
A force of resistance between two objects   Friction  
🗑
Speed of an object, but in a specific direction   Velocity  
🗑
Amount of matter in an object   Mass  
🗑
Distance traveled per unit of time   Speed  
🗑
Measure of graviational attraction or force/amount of mass   Weight  
🗑
Which law of motion is this? A rocket is launched. Jet fuel and exhaust exit the tail end sending the rocket in the opposite direction into space.   Newton's Third Law of Motion  
🗑
Which law of motion is this? A soccer ball continues to roll until it hits something.   Newton's First Law of Motion  
🗑
Which law of motion is this? The sling shot was pulled back and the rock propelled forward in the opposite direction.   Newton's Third Law of Motion  
🗑
Which law of motion is this? A baseball hit with a wooden bat goes farther than a baseball hit with a plastic bat.   Newton's Second Law of Motion  
🗑
Which law of motion is this? A balloon is attached to a toy car. The air goes out one way sending the toy car in the opposite direction.   Newton's Third Law of Motion  
🗑
Which law of motion is this? The baseball went farther than the basketball when your classmate hit them with an aluminum bat.   Newton's Second Law of Motion  
🗑
Which law of motion is this? You are thrown off the front of a 4-wheeler when it runs into a fence.   Newton's First Law of Motion  
🗑
Which law of motion is this? The vase of flowers flew through the windshield when it crashed because it stayed in motion and was not restrained by a seatbelt.   Newton's First Law of Motion  
🗑
Which law of motion is this? An empty chair is easier to push (less mass) than a chair with a person in it (more mass).   Newton's Second Law of Motion  
🗑
Which law of motion is this? You run into your friend while skating and both of you fall in opposite directions.   Newton's Third Law of Motion  
🗑
Which law of motion is this? The clothes you left on the floor are still there when you come home from school.   Newton's First Law of Motion  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
