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

Front

State Newton's 1st 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 2nd Law state?

Back

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

Front

What is the formula for Newton's 2nd Law?
