ICP Unit 3 Review

Front

What is Newton's 3rd Law?

Back

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

Front

What happens to acceleration if force is kept constant and mass is doubled?

Back

Acceleration will be halved.

Front

How is weight calculated?

Back

Weight is calculated as mass x gravity.

Front

How are force and acceleration related?

Back

Force and acceleration are directly proportional.

Front

What is Newton's 1st Law?

Back

An object in motion tends to stay in motion and an object at rest tends to stay at rest unless acted on by an unbalanced force.

Front

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

Back

F = m * a (Force equals mass times acceleration).

Front

What does mass measure?

Back

Mass measures the amount of matter in an object.

Front

What is the difference between mass and weight?

Back

Mass is the amount of matter, while weight is the force of gravity acting on that mass.

Front

What is inertia?

Back

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

Front

What is the unit of force in the SI system?

Back

The unit of force is the Newton (N).
