100

This is the force that pulls objects towards one another 

Gravity 

100

This Law states: An object at rest will remain at rest, an object in motion will remain in motion, unless it is acted upon by an unbalanced force 

Newtons 1st Law 

100

What formula do you use to solve for speed? 

Speed = Distance / Time

100

What type of line represents an object at rest and an object at a constant speed? 

Object at Rest - Straight Horizontal Line

Object moving at a Constant Speed - Straight Diagonal Line 

100

An elephant has a mass of 8,000 pounds 

A bowling ball has a mass of 7 pounds

Which object has more gravity? Why?

Elephant - More Mass = More Gravity 

200

A property of matter which allows it to resist changes in motion.

Inertia

200

This Law states: For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction 

Newtons 3rd Law 

200

What formula do you use to solve for acceleration? 

Acceleration = Force / Mass 

200

What type of movement is occuring between F and G.

Object is at rest

200

Why does a feather fall more slowly than a bowling ball?

Air Resistance 

300

This is a push or pull on an object 

Force

300

This Law States: Force = Mass x Acceleration

400

Opposes motion between two touching surfaces

Friction 

400

Balanced - 0N

500

A place or object used to determine if something is moving.

Reference Point

500

This is an example of which Newtons Law?

A pencil on a table will stay there until someone picks it up.

Newtons 1st Law

50 seconds 

500

Between what time(s) was the object moving at a constant pace? 

Between 0-5 seconds 

Between 10-15 seconds
