What does Newton's first law state about an object's motion?

• An object's motion can change without any force acting on it.

• A force is needed to keep an object moving.

• An object's motion cannot change unless a force acts on it.

• Friction is the only force affecting an object's motion.

What force opposes the motion of an object in everyday situations?

• Gravity

• Friction

• Magnetism

• Electromagnetic Force

According to Newton's second law, what happens to the acceleration of an object if the force applied to it increases?

• The acceleration decreases

• The acceleration remains the same

• The acceleration increases

• The acceleration becomes negative
