Question | Answer |

Newton's First Law | An object at rest stays at rest; an object in motion stays in motion unless acted upon by an outside force. |
Newton's Second Law | Force equals mass times acceleration (F = ma) |
Newton's Third Law | For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction |
inertia | tendency of matter to remain at rest |
kinetic energy | Energy of motion |
Law of Conservatio | energy can neither be created or destroyed |
friction | a force that opposes motion |
acceleration | increase in the rate of speed |
variable | part of an experiment that changes or that you test |
speed | distance traveled over a period of time S = d/t |
gravity | the force of attraction between all objects in the universe |
motion | a change of position |
