This is the scientific word for a push or a pull on an object.

Force

100

This is the measure of how fast an object is moving over a certain amount of distance.

Speed

100

f you are in a car that stops suddenly and your body jerks forward, you are experiencing this Law

What is the First Law (Inertia)?

200

This invisible force pulls all objects on Earth down toward the ground.

Gravity

If a car travels 100 miles in 2 hours, this is its average speed.

50 miles per hour

What is Newton's third law?

The Third Law says that for every action, there is one of these that is equal and opposite.

300

This force happens when two surfaces rub together, slowing down a moving object

Friction

How much force is needed to move a 5 kg bowling ball if it accelerates at 3 m/s²?

15 Newtons

What is Newton second law ?

F = ma

400

If two kids pull a rope with the exact same strength and no one moves, the forces are this.

Balanced force

400

If a toy car travels at a speed of 4 meters per second for 10 seconds, how far did it go?

What is 40 meters?

What are the 4 forces of a flight ?

Lift, Drag, Thrust and weight

500

This type of force is needed to make a soccer ball start moving from a standstill.

unbalanced

500

An object is pushed with 20 Newtons of force and accelerates at 4 m/s². What is its mass?

What is 5 kg?

What are three law of motions?

  • The Law of Inertia (1st Law): Objects are "lazy." If they are sitting still, they want to stay sitting still. If they are moving, they want to keep moving in a straight line forever.

  • The Law of Force and Acceleration (2nd Law): If you want to move something heavy (more mass), you have to push it much harder (more force).

The Law of Action and Reaction (3rd Law): Forces always come in pairs. If you push on a wall, the wall is actually pushing back on you with the exact same amount of force!
