A stationary ball that only moves after being kicked is an example of this law. (Hint: This law states that an object at rest will remain at rest unless acted upon by an unbalanced force)

What is Newton's first law?

200

This is determined by an object's initial velocity, final velocity, and time traveled.

What is an object's acceleration?

200

What is equal and opposite?

200

A band saw is used to make these types of cuts.

What are rough cuts?

300

Objects with more mass are harder or easier to set into motion.

What is harder?

This law explains why a CO₂ dragster remains at rest until the CO₂ cartridge is released, and why it keeps moving until air resistance and friction slow it down.

What is Newton's 1st law?

300

Straws were placed in the axle holes to reduce this.

What is friction?

300

Forces that cause a change in the motion of an object.

What are unbalanced forces?

Speed and direction of a CO2 dragster Car.

What is velocity?

400

When forces on an object are moving in opposite directions, you must ________ them to find the net force

What is subtract

When using a scroll saw or band saw, you should never put your hand here.

What is in front of the blade?

500

It is a pushing force that opposes drag provided by the puncturing of a CO2 cartridge.

What is thrust?

500

When the CO₂ cartridge is punctured, it pushes gas backward out of the car. According to this law, the car moves forward with an equal and opposite force.
