What is this law "hitting a hockey puck to make it accelerate"

2nd law

100

What is the constant force we always have on earth? (its putting force on you right now)

Gravity

100

Define Force

A push or pull of an object

100

Who founded the 3 laws of motion? 

Isaac Newton

100

What law is happening in this example? "when you jump off a diving board, the diving boards' surface pushes back on you"

Third Law

200

What is this law "A golf ball sitting on a tee"

1st law

200

What happens when an unbalanced force is applied to an object that is at rest?

It moves. Depending on the force it might fall (gravity), be pushed or pulled by you or by nature

200

Define Gravity

A force of attraction between objects

200

What does the First law state?

An object in motion or rest will stay in motion or rest

200

What law is this example? "leaves stay on a tree, until the tree is shook and they then fall to the ground"

First law

300

What is this law "pushing an empty shopping cart is easier than a full one"

2nd law

300

Is this an directly proportional relationship or an inversely related relationship? F=m x a

Directly

300

Define reaction

The force the object pushes back

300

What does the third law state?

For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction?

300

What law is this example "The harder we kick a soccer ball, the more force we apply so the further it will go"

Second law

400

What is this law "two people standing on skateboards push each other and they both move away from each other"

3rd law

400

Which of the following is a contact force? 1) gravity 2) friction 3) temperature or 4) speed

Friction

400

Define velocity

Speed in a given direction

400

What does the second law state?

An object's acceleration depends on its mass and force acting on it

400

What law is this example "When you turn off a fan, the fan blades continue to move for awhile, even without electricity"

First law

500

What is this law "Two people are playing tug o war and are pulling with equal forces"

3rd law

500

What force slows a skydiver down when he deploys his parachute?

Air resistance

500

Define Inertia

The tendency of an object to keep its motion

500

What are the other names of the 3 laws? The first law is also known as what? What about the second law? and finally the third law?

Law of inertia

Law of acceleration

law of action and reaction

500

What law is this example "a bicycle will accelerate more quickly than an automobile if you apply the same force to each one"

Second Law
