Newton's Laws

AB
Newton's 1st Lawan object at rest or moving at a constant speed in a straight path will continue to do so until a net force acts on it
Newton's 2nd Lawan object acted upon by a force will accelerate in the direction of the force
normal forceoutward force from a surface
forcepush or pull
unbalanced forcesnet forces on an object are not zero
balanced forcestwo or more forces whose effects cancel each other
net forcestotal force felt by an object
Newton's 3rd Lawforces always act in equal but opposite pairs
frictionrubbing force that acts against motion between two touching surfaces
sliding frictionfriction that slows down objects
wheelhelps reduce sliding friction
terminal velocitythe speed an object reaches when the force of gravity is balanced by the force of air resistance
rolling frictionenables you to ride a bike without skidding or falling
gravityexists between any two objects with mass
