This is an example of which of Newton's laws?  If you kicked a ball in space, it would keep going forever, because there is no gravity, friction or air resistance going against it.

What is "Newton's 1st law or the law of inertia"

400

This is an example of which of Newton's Laws?  When you dive off a diving board, you push down on the springboard.  The board springs back and forces you into the air.

What is "Newton's third law or the law of action/reaction"

400
Distance

Scalar Quantity

400

Force is equal to 

mass x acceleration

Give an example of velocity.

Any answer with magnitude and direction. 


For example: 20m/s South

500

Acceleration is equal to 

change in velocity (V final - V initial) / time
