newtons first and second law make-up

Front

What is the sum of all forces acting on an object?

Back

Net force

Front

What is the formula to calculate acceleration?

Back

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

Front

What is Newton's 2nd Law of Motion?

Back

Force is dependent on the mass and acceleration of an object.

Front

How do you calculate the weight of an object?

Back

Weight (W) = Mass (m) × Acceleration due to gravity (g)

Front

What is the acceleration due to gravity on Earth?

Back

Approximately 9.8 m/s²

Front

If a 60 kg person is on Earth, what is their weight?

Back

588 N (Weight = 60 kg × 9.8 m/s²)

Front

What happens to the acceleration of an object if the force applied increases?

Back

The acceleration also increases.

Front

What is inertia?

Back

Inertia is the tendency of an object to resist changes in its state of motion.

Front

What does Newton's 1st Law state?

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 is the relationship between mass and acceleration according to Newton's 2nd Law?

Back

Acceleration is inversely proportional to mass when force is constant.
