Newtons Laws of Motion

Quiz

AB
Inertiatendancy 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 MomentumP=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 Lawacceleration 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.
