what is inertia
An object at rest will stay at rest, and an object in motion will continue moving
What is newtons first law of motion
Law of inertia
An object with a mass of 2.0 kg accelerates 2.0 m/s2 when an unknown force is applied to it. What is the amount of the force?
4N
What is mass
The quantity of matter in a body
What is newtons second law
F=ma
An object with a mass of 5.0 kg accelerates 8.0 m/s2 when an unknown force is applied to it. What is the amount of the force?
4N
What is gravity
The universal force of attraction between any two masses
Newtons third law of motion
for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.
An object with a mass of 2.0 kg has a force of 4.0 newtons applied to it. What is the resulting acceleration of the object?
2m/s2
