What is Newton's First Law.
100
A car is going around a circle drive way. Why is the car accelerating?
What is its direction is constantly changing.
100
The distance an object travels in a certain time.
What is Speed
100
The tendency for an object to resist any change in motion.
What is inertia.
100
A boat in a marina is docked and is not moving. A force is keeping the boat from sinking. What force is keeping the boat from sinking and what law does this scenario refer to?
What is buoyant force and Newton's First Law.
200
An object will change speed. A net or overall force on an object will accelerate it.
What is Newton's Second Law
200
A car is stopped at a stop light. The driver looks both ways and begin to accelerate at 5 km/hr every second. What is the cars speed after 10 seconds?
What is 50 km/hr.
200
The distance an object travels in a certain direction and in a certain amount of time.
What is velocity.
200
A push or a pull is a type of...
What is force.
200
A Semi truck and a pick up truck are traveling down the road and break at the same time. Which truck will go farther and why?
What is the semi truck. The semi truck has more momentum.
300
The same force is acted on a golf ball and a kick ball. The golf ball goes farther. What law does this refer to?
What is Newton's Second Law.
300
What are four ways a person can change their velocity when walking to the park? Double Jeopardy
What is speed up, slow down, change direction, or stop.
300
The tendency of an object to resist a change.
What is inertia.
300
Why do astronauts "Float" while they are in orbit? Double Jeopardy
What is gravity and inertia are balanced in orbit.
300
A highlighter is resting on top of a hoop. The hoop is resting on top of a vase. If Mr. Riley pulls the hoop out in a fast swift motion what will happen to the highlighter and why?
What is the highlighter will fall into the vase because gravity is pushing against the highlighter. There is not enough friction against the highlighter and the hoop to make the highlighter move. Newton's First Law!
400
As you ride your bike your bikes tires push against the ground. At the same time, the ground pushes against the tires. What law does this refer to?
What is Newton's Third Law
400
A lady is traveling east at a steady rate. What is her velocity?
What is she does not have a velocity. A speed is not given.
400
The ability for an object to stop.
What is momentum.
400
Suppose you are sitting on the beach watching the waves crash down and a seagull flies by. What describes your position and all the things around you?
What is frame of reference.
400
A runner in a race continues to run past the finish line before the come to a complete stop. What is causing the runner not to be able to stop?
What is momentum.
500
For every action there must be an equal and opposite reaction.
What is Newton's Third Law
500
I am not looking for just speed. I want direction too.
What is Velocity.
500
The rate at which an object's velocity changes.
What is acceleration.
500
This term refers to the location of an object in space.
What is position.
500
A strand of beads falls out of a jar and Mr.Riley cannot stop it from falling. What laws of motion does this scenario apply to?
