Newton's Laws

Front

What are the SI units for force?

Back

Newtons

Front

What law states that acceleration is caused by a force acting on a mass?

Back

Newton’s second law of motion

Front

When the net force is zero, what can we say about the forces on an object?

Back

The forces are balanced.

Front

If you exert a net force of 8 N on a 2-kg object, what is its acceleration?

Back

4 m/s²

Front

What is an example of velocity?

Back

25 m/s East

Front

What is Newton's first law of motion?

Back

An object at rest stays at rest, and an object in motion stays in motion unless acted upon by a net external force.

Front

What does Newton's third law of motion state?

Back

For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.

Front

What is the formula for calculating force?

Back

Force = Mass × Acceleration (F = m × a)

Front

What is the relationship between mass and acceleration in Newton's second law?

Back

Acceleration is directly proportional to the net force and inversely proportional to the mass.

Front

What happens to an object if no net force acts on it?

Back

It will maintain its state of motion.
