100
A rocket takes off up into the air during a launch.
What is action reaction, third law of motion.
100
What is Newton's first name?
What is Issac
100
Why do we wear seatbelts?
What is inertia. An object in motion will stay in motion, so the seatbelt keeps us from continuing to move forward.
100
What do these laws explain?
How all objects move or have motion.
100
Newton's First Law
What is Inertia
200
A student standing on a bus, falls forward when a bus comes to a stop.
What is inertia, the first law of motion.
200
Newton developed this device to show that momentum is conserved in a collision
What is Newton's Cradle
200
Explain why rowing backwards moves a boat forward.
What is action reaction forces. By rowing backwards you apply a force to the water, the water pushes back equally in the opposite direction.
200
What does Newton's 1st law of motion mean when it says ..."unless an external force acts upon it."
Motion will only change or occur if a force (push or pull) is applied or done to the object.
200
A resistance to changes in motion
What is inertia
300
A baseball player hits a 90 mph fastball with a quick easy swing, over the fence for a homeroom.
What is F=ma, second law of motion.
300
When did Newton do his best scientific work?
When he was on his own, working by himself as a young scientist
300
Explain how a basketball bounces.
What is Newton's 3rd law. The ball hitting the ground is the action force and the ground pushing back equally up is the reaction force.
300
What does F = ma tell us about how an object accelerates? Rearranged the equation is a = F/m
That objects accelerate based on their mass and how much force is applied.
300
Several of Newton's ideas and experiments led to the idea that these three science vocabulary terms are all related to each other.
What is F= ma, Force, mass and acceleration
400
A dolphin flips its tail violently up and down to speed away from an orca.
What is action reaction, 3rd law of motion.
400
What was the ultimate honor that Newton received once his genius was realized?
What is Knighting. He was knighted by the king and queen of England. This gave him the title of SIR
400
A hockey player strikes a 20g hockey puck at 5 m/s/s. What force would the goalie need to stop the puck?
What is 100 Newtons. 20g x 5 m/s/s
400
What does Newton mean in his third law when he says "equal and opposite reaction"?
That when a force is applied to something, it will respond with a force that is the same and in the opposite direction to the applied force.
400
These two terms of force help us explain how we walk or how a skateboarder rolls on his board. They are also the name of one of his laws.
What is action and reaction
500
Two male rams of different masses, fighting for a female mate, run toward each other and smash their heads together. This forceful act is to establish dominance as the alpha male.
What is F= ma, the force of impact will be based on the acceleration and mass of each male ram.
500
Where is Sir Issac Newton from?
What is the country of England.
500
How is it possible that two objects that have different masses can hit a wall with the same force?
What is Newton's 2nd Law of Motion F = ma. They have different accelerations. The lighter object has more acceleration to make up for its lower mass.
500
What does Newton mean in the first law when he says that an object has inertia?
That an object will keep doing whatever it was doing if no forces are applied to it., this is based on the objects mass.
500
Newton came up with the three laws of motion, but in doing so he was able to quantify motion with a word and a math equation. The equation is p = mv. What is the word?
What is momentum
