Issac Newton
Who is Issac Newton?
The person who created the laws of motion
For every action, there is an equal but opposite reaction.
Newton's 3rd law
What is Newtons first law?
Any object in motion stays in motion unless an unbalanced force acts on it.
What is the definition of acceleration?
speed up, slow down, change direction
or the change in an object's velocity.
What is Newtons third law?
For every action there is an equal/opposite reaction.
Name two things Newton studied.
laws of motion, gravity
How many laws of motion are there?
There are three laws of motion
What is the Newtons first law usually called as?
Inertia
What is the formula for Newton's 2nd law?
F=ma
F=Net force, M=Mass, A=Acceleration
What is an example of Newtons third law?
Someone getting out of a boat moving forward and Moving the boat pushing backwards
What is the unit for force?
Newton
A larger force on an object will give the object a larger acceleration. Which law?
Newton's 2nd Law of Motion
What is inertia?
It is the natural tendency to resist change in motion?
How to solve for Mass?
M=F/a
If you push down on a box with a force of 5 Newtons, then......
the box pushes back on you with a force of 5 Newtons.
True or False? Weight is the measure of the force of gravity on your body.
True
If I push on the wall, the wall pushes back on me with an equal force.
Newton's 3rd law
Which object has more inertia? A cow or a small dog?
A cow because it has more mass.
How to solve for Acceleration?
A=F/m
What are the units for weight in science class?
Newtons
An object at rest wants to stay at rest.
Newton's 1st law
Which has less inertia? a bowling ball or a tennis ball?
a tennis ball because it has less mass
How to solve for Force?
Force = mass times acceleration
If Mrs. Butler pushes her car with 15 Newtons of force,
