| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Newton's 1st Law of Motion | An object tends to remain in uniform motion unless a force acts on it |
| Newton's 2nd Law of Motion | Acceleration of an object is proportional to the force applied to it |
| Newton's 3rd Law of Motion | For every force applied to an object, there is an equal but opposite reaction force |
| Inertia | The tendency of an object to resist a change in motion |
| Gravity | A force of attraction between all objects |
| Weight | The pull of gravity on the mass of an object |
| Centripetal acceleration | A "center-seeking" force |
| Centripetal force | The force that causes an object to accelerate towards the center of a curve or circle |
| Momentum | A product of an objects mass and velocity |
| The Law of Conservation of Momentum | Momentum won't change unless the velocity or velocity of an object changes |
