This law is also known as the Law of Inertia.
What is Newton’s First Law?
Newton’s Second Law says that Force equals mass times this.
What is acceleration?
This law says that for every action, there is this.
What is an equal and opposite reaction?
This is what a spring scale measures.
What is force?
This type of force is caused when two surfaces rub against each other
What is friction?
According to Newton’s First Law, an object in motion will stay in motion unless acted on by this.
What is an unbalanced or outside force?
If you apply the same force to a big object and a small object, this one will accelerate more.
What is the small object?
When you jump off a boat, the boat _________.
What is moves backward or away?
The unit most often used on a spring scale to measure force.
What is a newton?
A force that pulls all objects toward the center of the Earth.
What is gravity?
The tendency of an object to resist a change in motion.
What is inertia?
The unit for force is named after this famous scientist.
What is a newton?
A rocket launches because gases push down, and this pushes the rocket up.
What is an equal and opposite force?
This is the type of friction between the wheels and road when you ride a bike.
What is rolling friction?
The force you use when you open a door or pull a wagon.
What is a contact force?
If you slide a book across a table, it eventually stops because of this force.
What is friction?
A 2 kg object accelerates at 3 m/s². The force is this many newtons.
What is 6 newtons?
When a balloon is released and flies around, the air going out is the action. The balloon moving is this.
What is the reaction?
Explain why these people are not moving.
What is they are pulling with the same force in opposite directions?
This kind of force acts at a distance without touching the object, like magnetism or gravity.
What is a non-contact force?
"_____________ is a property of matter." - Bill Nye
What is inertia?
A force of 10 Newtons is applied to a cart with an acceleration of 5 m/s/s. This is the mass of the cart.
What is 2 kg?
When you hit a baseball with a bat, the bat pushes the ball forward. According to Newton’s Third Law, this is what the ball does to the bat.
What is it pushes back on the bat with equal force?
Balanced or unbalanced force? Double your points if you can calculate the force and the direction in this diagram.
What is unbalanced? (300 N to the right)
The 2 forces acting on an object falling through Earths atmosphere.
What is gravity and friction?
