Newtons Laws of Motion Review Game

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 with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by a net external force.

Front

What is Newton's second law of motion?

Back

The acceleration of an object is directly proportional to the net force acting on it and inversely proportional to its mass (F = ma).

Front

What is Newton's third law of motion?

Back

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

Front

Define net force.

Back

The overall force acting on an object when all the individual forces are combined.

Front

What does it mean for an object to have a net force of 0 N?

Back

It means that the object is in equilibrium, and there is no change in its motion.

Front

What is inertia?

Back

The tendency of an object to resist changes in its state of motion.

Front

What is the formula for calculating force?

Back

Force (F) = mass (m) × acceleration (a).

Front

What is gravitational force?

Back

The force of attraction between two masses, such as the Earth and an object.

Front

What is the normal force?

Back

The support force exerted upon an object that is in contact with a stable surface.

Front

What is friction?

Back

The force that opposes the motion of an object in contact with a surface.
