newtons laws of motion

Question 1

newtons first law

Answer 1

the law of inertia

Question 2

the law of inertia

Answer 2

a body will remain at rest or in uniform motion in a straight line unless acted upon by an external force

Question 3

inertia

Answer 3

the resistance of a body to a change in its state of motion

Question 4

mass

Answer 4

the quantity of matter found within a particular body

Question 5

newtons second law

Answer 5

the law of acceleration

Question 6

law of acceleration

Answer 6

a force applied to an object will produce a change in motion (acceleration) in the direction of the applied force that is directly proportional to the size of the force

Question 7

law of acceleration formula

Answer 7

force = mass x acceleration

Question 8

acceleration

Answer 8

how quickly an objects velocity/speed changes
how fast you can speed up or slow down
can be positive (increased speed), negative (decreased speed) or zero (constant speed

Question 9

newtons third law

Answer 9

the law of action/reaction

Question 10

the law of action/reaction

Answer 10

for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. this law explains that when two objects collide they exert forces on each other that are equal in size but opposite in direction
