This is what Newton's first law in States?
Newton’s First Law of Motion, also known as the Law of Inertia, states:
An object will remain at rest or in uniform motion in a straight line unless acted upon by an external force.
100
This force opposes motion between two surfaces in contact.
What is friction?
100
This formula calculates force.
100
This is the measure of how much matter an object contains.
What is mass?
100
This is why six is afraid of seven.
- What is "because seven eight nine"
200
This is the tendency of an object to resist changes in its state of motion or rest.
In simple terms:
- If an object is at rest, it wants to stay at rest.
- If an object is moving, it wants to keep moving in the same direction and at the same speed.
What is Inertia?
200
This force pulls objects toward the center of the Earth
What is gravity?
200
The force applied to a car accelerating at 5 m/s² with a mass of 2,000 kg
What is 10,000 N?
200
The rate of change of velocity.
What is acceleration?
200
This is what a math book says when it’s feeling sad.
What is "I have too many problems"?
300
This law explains how rockets launch by applying force to expel gas.
What is Newton’s Second Law?
300
This effect of friction slows down a moving object on a rough surface.
What is a decrease in velocity?
300
"If an object travels 60 kilometers in 2 hours, this formula is used to calculate its average speed."
"What is distance divided by time?" (Or "What is the formula for speed?")
300
This type of force is applied when a spring is compressed or stretched.
What is elastic force?
300
This is why the student ate their homework
What is "because the teacher said it was a piece of cake"?
400
The acceleration of a 10 kg object with a force of 50 N applied.
What is 5 m/s²?
400
This term describes the maximum velocity reached by a falling object.
What is terminal velocity?
400
This is the net force acting on an object if two people push it with equal forces of 10 N in opposite directions.
What is 0 N
400
This term refers to the combination of all forces acting on an object.
What is net force?
400
This is why plants hate math.
What is "because it gives them square roots"?
500
This law explains why a book resting on a table stays at rest until a force is applied to move it?"
What is Newton's First Law (the Law of Inertia
500
"This is the force that opposes motion between two surfaces in contact and acts parallel to the surfaces, with its magnitude depending on the surfaces' nature and the normal force."
What is friction
500
A 5 kg object accelerates at 2 m/s². Identify the law that explains this motion.
What is Newton's second law
500
"This term describes the force per unit area exerted on a surface."
"What is pressure?"
500
This is what you call a number that can’t stay in one place.
What is "a roamin’ numeral"?
