Force is measured in this unit of measurement

What are Newtons?

100

This person created the 3 Laws of Motion.

Who is Isaac Newton?

100

This is a contact force that works against the motion of objects trying to move past each other.

What is friction?

100

This is the change in velocity in a given amount of time. 

What is acceleration?

100

This is the Net Force of a cart being pushed with a force of 4N to the left and being pulled with a force of 8N to the left. 

What is 12N to the left?

200

Force equals what in Newton's Second Law? (hint - this is the equation)

What is mass x acceleration?

200

Isaac Newton found that an object has the tendency to resist change in its motion or lack of motion and this is also called what?

What is inertia?

200

This is the study of forces and how they can change an object's motion.

What is dynamics?

200

This is how we measure mass in the equation F = ma.

What is kilograms (kg)?

200

This is the acceleration of a 10kg mass being pushed by a force of 20N.

What is 2 m/s^2?

300

Any push or a pull on an object.

What is force?

300

Newton's First Law of Motion is also called what?

What is the Law of Inertia?

300

This is the study of how things move.

What is kinematics?

300

This occurs when an object's speed changes, when an object changes direction, or when both speed and direction changes. 

What is acceleration?

300

This is the amount of force that is required to accelerate a mass of 8kg at 4m/s^2?

What is 32N?

400

The sum of all forces acting on an object.

What is Net Force?

400

Newton's Second Law of Motion is also called what?

What is the Law of Acceleration?

400

This is the rate at which an object's position changes and it refers to both speed and direction. 

What is velocity?

400

This is a force between two objects when one is sliding past the other. 

What is sliding friction?
400

This is the mass of an object that requires 50N of force to accelerate it at 25m/s^2. 

What is 2kg?

500

The force that acts in the direction that is perpendicular to the surface where 2 objects make contact.

What is Normal Force?

500

Newton's Third Law of Motion is also called what?

What is the Law of Action-Reaction?

500

This is how acceleration is labeled when doing F = ma calculations. 

What is m/s^2?

500
