If object A exerts a force on object B, then object B ?
also exerts an equal force on object A
newtons first law states that ?
an object at rest will remain at rest, an object in motion will remain at motion.
1 newton is a unit used to measure ?
Force
what is inertia ?
An object at rest will stay at arrest and an object in motion will stay in motion and constant velocity unless acted upon by an unbalanced force.
Who was Isaac newton ?

a =2.5 m/s-2
newtons third law states that for every action in nature there is ?
an equal and opposite reaction.
f=ma what does m mean ?
mass
The more mass the object has the more net force has to be used to move it. This has to do with witch of newtons laws?

Friction always opposes?
Motion
In newtons second law, he defines a force to be ?
mass x acceleration
push or pull
what is the law of force and acceleration ?
force equals mass times acceleration (F=MA)
Newtons law can be illustrated by identifying the pairs of forces involved (ex: blocks being supported by a spring). Which law is this ?
newtons third law
When he was only 23 years old he developed the theories of gravitation in 1666, after about twenty years later in 1686 he presented his ?
three laws of motion in the "principia Mathematica philosophiae nuturalis"
How much force would a football player exert if they have a mass of 100kg and an acceleration of 5m/s?
F=m xa
5 x 100= 500N of force
newtons second law states that the acceleration of an object is ?
proportional to the force acting on it.
what is the equation for newtons second and third law ?
(second law) a=Fnet/m
(third law) F1=-F2
Newtons laws of motion deal with what major physics concepts ? list 3
everything to do with motion, forces, gravity, speed, or acceleration.
What was one of newtons most famous quotes ?
I have seen further than others, it is by standing upon the shoulders of giants.
I can calculate the motion of heavenly bodies, but not the madness of people.
To every action there is always opposed an equal reaction.
