Questions
How is gravity affected by mass?
The larger the mass of the object, the greater the gravity
A change in motion caused by an unbalanced force acting on an object; includes increasing speed, decreasing speed, or a change in direction

Balanced Forces, Constant Speed
What's Newton’s 1st law?
Inertia
What is a force that opposes motion between two surfaces?
Friction
Forces on an object that do not change the motion of the object
Balanced Forces

What is the difference between mass and weight?
Mass is how much matter is in an object, and weight is the gravitational pull on that object

Action-Reaction
What slows down the motion of an object or keeps it from starting?
friction
The tendency of a physical object to remain still or continue moving unless force is applied
Inertia
