Newton Laws of Motion Flashcards
Force
A push or a pull exerted on an object in order to change the motion of the object
Motion
A change of position over time
Net Force
The combination of all the forces acting on an object
Speed
Distance traveled per rate of time
Speed= Distance/time
Velocity
The speed and direction of an object
Accectrion
The rate at which velocity changes over time
Newton First Law
An object at rest will stay at rest unless an acted upon by an outside force
Newton Second Law
Force= Mass x acceleration
Newton Third Law
For every action there is an oppiste reaction
Inertia
The tendency of an object to resist being moved or if the object is moving to resist a change in speed or direction until an outside force acts on the object
Friction
A force that resists motion
Mass
The amonut of matter in an object
Gravity
An attractive force that exists between all object that have mass.
