| Gravity | the force of attraction between 2 objects |
| Inertia | the tendency of an object to continue moving or staying at rest |
| Friction | the force of 2 surfaces rubbing together |
| Force | a push or pull exerted on an object |
| Newton's Law 1 | An object in motion stays in motion unless a force acts on it. An object at rest stays at rest unless a force acts on it. |
| Newton's Law 2 | An object's acceleration depends on it's mass and the force applied to it (F=ma). |
| Newton's Law 3 | For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. |
| Example of Law 1 | A sled continues to move downhill when a child stops to tie her shoe. |
| Example of Law 2 | A pitched baseball has more force than a baseball that is tossed. |
| Example of Law 3 | A swimmer pushes water back with her arms and her body moves forward. |
| F=ma | Equation for Newton's 2nd Law |
| Action/Reaction | Newton's 3rd Law |
