Kinematics
The SI unit of acceleration.
What is meters per second squared?
The SI unit of mass.
What is kilogram?
This law states that an object’s velocity will not change unless an unbalanced force acts on the object.
What is Newton's First Law?
Newton’s Second Law can be summarized using this equation.

What is University of Maryland, College Park?
The measure of the rate of change of velocity.
What is acceleration?
The magnitude of g (with appropriate units).
What is 9.8 meters per second squared?
Law that explains why less force means less acceleration.
What is Newton's 2nd Law?
This occurs whenever an object is acted upon by an unbalanced force.

The net displacement if a person walks 8 km east then 5 km west.
What is 3 km?
Weight has this SI unit.
What is Newton?
This law states that for every action force, there is an equal and opposite reaction force.
What is Newton’s Third Law?
An astronaut accelerating at 0.5 m/s/s under 40 N of force is this massive.
What is 80 kg?

What is -9.8 m/s/s?
The only force acting on an object in free-fall motion.
What is gravity?
This law explains why a rider gets 'launched' off her horse if the horse stops suddenly.
What is Newton's 1st Law?
According to Newton’s Second Law, increasing the net force applied to an object has this result.
What is increasing the object’s acceleration?
The book Newton published that contains his Laws of Motion.

The first instrument that Ms. Lawrence learned to play.
What is the trombone?
An object tossed in the air has this velocity at the peak of its flight.
What is zero?
The name for the force of gravity multiplied by the mass on an object.
What is weight?
Explains the recoil of a gun
What is Newton's 3rd Law?
A force provided by and perpendicular to a surface.
What is a normal force?
Newton's other (Not Newton's Laws of Motion) contributions to physics.
