Newton's Laws of Motion
What is Newton's First law?
Inertia
Newton's first law says: An object in motion stays in motion unless...?
Something stops it.
The type of force than keeps you pulled down on earth surface is called:
Gravity
Smooth surfaces have less of this, which allows objects like cars to move faster across them.
Friction
What is Newton's first name?
Isaac
What is Newton's Second Law?
Acceleration
Newton's first law says: Objects at rest remain at rest unless.....?
Something moves it.
A force is a push or a ______.
Pull
TRUE OR FALSE
If a car crashes and a person isn't wearing their seatbelt, they would fly out of the car.
Bonus points if you know which law of motion that is.
TRUE
Newton's first law
What object hit Newton on head the day he discovered gravity?
An apple
What is Newton's Third Law?
Force OR action and reaction
TRUE OR FALSE
Newton's second law says: An object will go faster downhill if it is heavier.
TRUE
Name 2 forces that cause an object to stop moving.
Gravity and Friction
A ball rolling down a hill is being affected by what force?
Gravity
Which has more mass, a golf ball or a ping pong ball?
Golf ball
What is Newton's Fourth law?
Doesn't exist, APRIL FOOLS
Newton's third law says: For every action, there is an equal and opposite__________.
Reaction
What is the unit of measurement for force? Hint: It's someone's name
Newton
If I dropped a bowling ball and a basketball at the same time from the same height, which one would hit the ground first?
Bowling Ball
What would happen to us if there was no friction beneath our feet?
We would skate around all over the place unable to stop.
Newton's second law says an object's acceleration is affected by it's mass and the _______ acting against it.
Force
What does each letter in the formula to find force stand for? The formula is f=ma.
Force, Mass, Acceleration
TRUE OR FALSE
Rough surfaces have more friction than smooth surfaces, so things will move faster on them.
FALSE
