A | B |
Inertia | tendancy to resist a change in motion. |
What is Newton's first Law? | Law of Inertia |
Formula for Mass? | m = F/a |
What is the force of gravity on earth? | 9.8 N |
Newton's second law states that force equals: | mass X acceleration |
The acceleration of gravity on Earth is equal to: | 9.8 m/s/s |
How is speed calculated? | Distance/Time |
Force that always works against the motion that it produces? | Friction |
A measure of the pulling force of gravity? | Weight |
A force that pulls every mass toward every other mass? | Gravity |
The amount of matter in an object; it determines an objects inertia? | Mass |
Does the mass of an object ever change? | No, mass always stays the same. |
Does the weight of an object ever change? | Weight changes as gravity changes. |
Formula for Momentum | P=m*v |
Formula for Mass (using momentum triangle) | M=P/V |
Newtons First law. | Object will continue to move in a straight line unless acted upon by an outside force. |
Newton's Second Law | acceleration is in proportion to force and inversly proportional to mass. |
Newton's Third Law. | For every action their is an equal and opposite reaction. |
Example of Newton's First Law. | You are thrown forward when the driver slams on the brakes. |
Example of Newton's Second Law. | Two objects of different weight dropped at the same time land at the same time. |
Example of Newton's Third Law. | A rocket uses thrusters to take off from earth. |
