Name the first Newton's law of motion.
Newton's Law that says an object at rest will stay at rest unless a force acts on it AND an object will move in a straight line at a constant speed until a force acts on it
Name three objects that are magnetic.
Iron, nickel, aluminum, metals, gold, steel, cobalt
What law of motion is speed related to?
Newton's Second Law of motion
186,000 miles per second or 300,000 km per second
What is force measured in?
What is the difference between speed and velocity?
SPEED IS TIME AND DISTANCE. VELOCITY IS TIME AND DISTANCE WITH DIRECTIONS. VELOCITY EX: THE PERSON IS RUNNING AT 9 MILES PER HOUR NORTH.
How do you calculate speed?
SPEED = DISTANCE/TIME
