100

A characteristic of matter that allows it to remain in its current condition of rest or uniform motion in a straight line until it is disrupted by an external force.

What is Newton's First Law? (Inertia)

100

mass/acceleration

What is Force?

100

Newtons

Force


100

The push or pull on an object with mass causes it to change its velocity.

What is force?

100

the rate of change in velocity(the change in speed)

What is acceleration?

200

The mass of the ball is 25 kg. The force used to throw the ball is 4N. The acceleration for the ball thrown is unknown.

What is Newton's Second Law?  F=MA

200

distance/time

What is speed?

200

Meters Per Second Squared

Acceleration

200

The resistance an object has to a change in its state of motion.

What is inertia?
200

A measure of the amount of matter in an object.

What is mass?

300

A body at rest will remain at rest, and a body in motion will remain in motion unless it is acted upon by an external force.

What is Newton's First Law?

300

A car with a mass of 1250 Kg traveling by an acceleration of 10 m/s2 hits a bike. What force does the car experience?

What are 12500 N?

300

Meters or Kilometers

What is Distance?

300

Equal in size and opposite in direction. When forces are balanced, there is no change in motion.

What are balanced forces?

300

an act of changing physical location or position or of having this changed.

What is movement?

400

Double Jeopardy: When a rocket is fired, the force of the burning gases coming out exerts an equal and opposite force on the rocket and it moves upward.

What is Newton's Third Law?

400

A combination of numbers and symbols used to express a calculation.

What is a formula?

400

Kilogram or Gram 

What is Mass?

400

The change in position of a body/object with regard to time is known as motion. Distance, displacement, speed, velocity, and acceleration are the characteristics used to characterize motion.

What is motion?

400

forces acting on an object that combine and form a net force that is not zero

What are unbalanced forces?

500

This law states that the rate of change of momentum of a body is directly proportional to the force applied for any object of constant mass.

What is Newton's Second Law?

500

A penguin went 20 meters in 8 seconds underwater. The speed for the penguin is:

What is 2.5 m/s?

500

DOUBLE JEOPARDY: 

The units for force are named after this scientist. Provide full name.

Who is Sir Isaac Newton?

500

A location to which you compare other locations.

What is a reference point?

500

a course along which someone or something moves.

What is direction?
