Newton's Law
Term | Definition |
---|---|
Newton's Law #1 | An object at rest will remain at rest an object moving at a constant velocity will continue velocity unless it is acid upon by an unbalanced force |
Newton's Law #2 | Acceleration depends on an objects mass and on the net force acting on the object |
Newton's Law #3 | If one object exerts a force on another object then the second object exerts a force of equal strength in the opposite direction |
Acceleration= | Net force / mass |
Inertia | The tendency of an object at rest to resist a change in motion |
Paired Forces | For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction |
