Newton's 3 Laws

TermDefinition
Newton's 1st Law An object in motion/ rest will stay in motion/ rest unless an outside force is acting on that object.
Newton's 2nd Law The force acting on an object is equal to the mass of that object times its acceleration. F = MA
Newton's 3rd Law For every action force, there is an equal and opposite reaction.
Speed The distance traveled by an object divided by the time taken to travel that distance.
Velocity- The speed of an object in a particular direction.
Acceleration The rate at which velocity changes.
Force A push or pull acting on an object.
Net Force The combination of all the forces acting on an object.
Balanced Net Force When the forces acting on an object produce a net force of 0 newtons.
Unbalanced Net Force- When the forces acting on an object produce a net force other than 0 newtons.
Friction The force that opposes motion between two surfaces that are in contact.
Gravity The force of attraction between two objects with mass.
Inertia The natural tendency of objects to resist changes in their state of motion.
Momentum The mass of an object times the velocity of an object; or “Mass in motion”.
Elastic Collision- A collision in which objects bounce off each other.
Inelastic Collision A type of collision in which objects stick together.
Conservation of Momentum The total momentum of all objects before a collision equals the total momentum of all objects after a collision.

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.

To see how well you know the information, try the Quiz or Test activity.
