3
Q
Explain velocity.
A
The quickness or speed of an object in a given time and direction.
4
Q
Explain Newton’s 1st Law.
A
Inertia - an object at rest will stay at rest, or an object in motion will continue in motion at the same speed and in the same direction, until acted upon by an outside source.
5
Q
Explain Newton’s 2nd Law.
A
Force - if an object with uniform speed is acted upon by an external force, the change of motion, or acceleration, will be directly proportional to the amount of force and inversely proportional to the mass of the object being moved.
