what is Newton's first law
Inertia
what is Newton's 2nd law
Newton's 2nd law acceleration is directly proportional to the net force acting on it and inversely proportional to its mass.
what is Newton's 3rd law
Newton's 3rd law is for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.
what is a unbalanced force
a non-zero net force acting on an object that causes it to accelerate
what is a balanced force
A balanced force occurs when multiple forces acting on an object are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction
what does inertia do
causes object to stay at rest
what is acceleration
acceleration is the rate at which an object's velocity changes over time.
what is force
a push or a pull on an object
what is net force
Net force is the total, combined effect of all the individual forces acting on an object
what is magnitude
Net force is the total, combined effect of all the individual forces acting on an object
what is inertia
inertia is the property of an object to resist changes in its state of motion.
what is F=ma
A mathematical formula representing Newton's Second Law of Motion.
what is a reaction
A reaction is a response, influence, or change that occurs as a direct result of a prior event
what is a effect
a change which is a result or consequence of an action or other cause.
what is Individual forces
gravitational force, applied force, normal force, tension, and friction
what is motion
Motion is the process of an object changing its position or location over time relative to a specific point or observer
what is velocity
Velocity is the rate at which an object's position changes over time
how does force help
It helps things move by setting them in motion from rest, changing their speed
how does a net force help
determining an object's acceleration
how does magnitude help
Magnitude provides a standardized, numerical way to measure and compare the size and strength
how does Newton's first law help
Newton's first law helps us understand and predict the motion of objects by explaining that they continue in their state of motion
how does Newton's 2nd law help
Newton's second law helps us predict how an object's motion will change when a force acts on it
how does Newton's 2nd law help
Newton's third law helps us understand and design countless technologies and natural phenomena
what does an unbalanced force do
it causes a change in an object's motion, which is known as acceleration.
what does a balanced force do
the object either remains at rest or continues to move at a constant velocity
