| measure of how fast something is moving (speed) / rate of change of position with time | velocity |
| the rate of change of velocity with time | acceleration |
| A body at rest will stay at rest. A body in motion will stay in motion. | Newton's first law of motion: inertia |
| the property of matter that acts to resist a change in its state of motion | inertia |
| the force that acts on an object is equal to the mass of the object multiplied by the acceleration produced | Newton's second law of motion: force |
| unit of measurement for force | newton |
| the product of the mass of an object and its velocity | momentum |
