100

An object at _____ stays at rest and an objection in motion stays in ______ .

Rest, Motion

100

This describes Newton's 1st Law of Motion

Inertia

100

Mass is how much an object weighs

False

100

Force = Mass x _______

Acceleration

100

For every ______, there is an equal and opposite _______.

Action, Reaction

200

Inertia is the resistance to ______ in the motion of the object

Change

200

Gravity depends on these two factors

Mass and Distance

200

There is no weight in gravity.

False

200

If force decreases, acceleration ______.

Decreases

200

This law states that the forces are equal and opposite. What type of force is this?

Balanced force

300

An object at rest measures a velocity of _____.

0

300

This term is the gravitational force exerted on an object

Weight

300

Force is required for an object to be in motion or at rest.

True

300

Newton's Second Law of Motion states that an object's _________ is in the same __________ as the net force on the object .

acceleration, direction

300

Why is jumping on a trampoline an example of Newton's 3rd Law of Motion?

You exert a force and the trampoline exerts an equal and opposite force on you.

400

A bowling ball has more mass than a golf ball, so the bowling ball will have more _____ according to Newton's First Law of Motion

Inertia

400

The maximum speed that a falling object reaches

Terminal Velocity

400

Force, Velocity, and Mass are related

True (Remember acceleration is the change in velocity!)

400

If you throw a softball and a baseball as hard as you can, they don't have the same speed due to _____.

Different masses

400

Why is gravity an example of Newton's 3rd Law of Motion?

Just as the Earth pulls down on an object with a force, objects also pull on the Earth.

500

In order to change an object's motion, what is required?

Force

500

Two surfaces that are not moving past each other have _____.

Friction or Static Friction

500
Projectile has two velocities -> horizontal and forward velocities

False (Horizontal and Vertical)

500

What is the net force on a sky diver falling with constant velocity of 10 m/s downward?

0 (if velocity is constant, acceleration is 0)

500

If the forces are equal and opposite according to Newton's 3rd Law of Motion, what causes motion for these objects?

The force pairs do not cancel, however, because they act on different systems.
