First Law
Can an object move independently?
Does Newton's Second Law apply to objects with or without acceleration?
What is regardless of acceleration.
Forces ALWAYS occur in pairs? True or False?
What is true.
Which law demonstrates a person's inertia by being pulled back when a train or car accelerates forward?
What is the First Law of Motion
Who wrote the book, Philosphiae Naturalis Principia Mathematica.
Who was Sir Isaac Newton
The pushing or pulling action of one object on another
What is force
The force required to accelerate an object at a certain rate equals the object's mass times the desired acceleration.
What is Newton's Second Law of Motion
What is Newton's Third Law
Calculate the force required to accelerate an 0.142 kg baseball at a rate of 17.99 m/s2 (90 mph).
F=ma
Newton build his work upon this scientist's ideas of motion
Who was Galileo Galilei
The velocity of an object does not change unless the object is acted upon by an external force
Newton's First Law of Motion
What does the equation F=ma stand for?
Force equals mass time acceleration
Does an unbalanced force cause motion?
Rocket engines use what law to explain why exhaust gases which expand and meet with the equal opposing force of thrust shoot the rocket into the sky
What is Newton's Third Law
Mistakenly thought that objects moved because they "wanted" to or because it was in their nature.
Who was Aristotle
The tendency of matter to resist changes in motion
What is inertia
What is the SI unit for force?
What is the NEWTON
Do BALANCED opposing forces cause motion?
What is NO.
Calculate the force required to accelerate a toy jet with a mass 2kg at a rate of 10 m/s2?
F=ma
Who did Sir Isaac Newton believe to be the Master Designer?
Who is God
Another name for Newton's First Law of Motion
What is the Law of Inertia
Is force directly or indirectly proportional to acceleration?
What is directly proportional
Why do Rockets go faster as they go higher? How does Newton's Laws Explain this?
The higher a rocket goes, the fuel in it burns. The more fuel it burns, the less it weighs/has less mass. Same amount of force pushing less mass gives you a greater acceleration. Newton's Second Law.
Also, the higher it goes, the less gravitational pull on it and less air resistance since air density is less the higher your go.
Who later showed that Sir Isaac Newtons' Law of Motion could be be modified under an extremely powerful gravitational field or at velocities approaching the speed of light.
Who is Albert Einstein
