An object’s mass directly affects how much force is needed to accelerate the object.

Newton's Second Law

100

After being hit, a ball travels at a constant speed. What might cause its motion to change?

Answer relates to: something else coming in contact with it, friction, some force that causes a change in motion

100
Formula to calculate the net force needed to cause motion.

Net force (F)= Mass (m) x Acceleration (a)

100

A dog walks along the ground. If the dog applies an action force on the ground, what is the reaction force? 

an equal and opposite force

100

inertia

200
Why do you keep moving forward at the same speed and direction when a car decelerates?

Inertia

200

One way to decrease the acceleration of a horse-drawn carriage.

Add more people to the carriage or more mass

200

Action reaction forces (are/ are not) balanced because they usually act on a different objects

are not

200

I tried to fight Newton’s 3rd Law of Motion but...

Response can be some reference to 3rd law: everytime I made a move, it pushed back…

300

For every action, there is an equal but opposite reaction

Newton's Third Law 

300

What example of a force is used in a car to counteract the inertia that keeps you moving forward in a decelerating car?

a seat belt

300

Unit to describe a force

NewTan or Newton

300

When you drop a pen, ________ pulls the pen downward and Earth pulls it upward.

gravity

300

Definition of "taboo"

something socially unacceptable

400

If an object is not moving, it will NOT start moving until a force acts on it AND If an object is moving, it will continue at a constant velocity until a force is acts on it

Newton's First Law

400
Why would a car be harder to stop than a human?

it has more mass

400

If you know the net force and mass of an object you can find the acceleration with this formula.

Acceleration= Net force divided by Mass OR a= F/m

400

An action force is always paired with a _________force.

reaction

coming from, based on, or developed from something else instead of being original

derive or derived

500

The more _______ an object has, the more _________ it has

mass, inertia
