Newton's first law of motion states that __________.

an object will remain at rest or keep moving with a constant velocity unless a force acts on it

when a force is applied on an object, there is an equal force applied by the object in the opposite direction

when a force acts on an object, its acceleration is in the same direction as the force

acceleration is calculated by dividing the force exerted on an object by the mass of the object

When an unbalanced force acts on an object, the force ______________________.

changes the motion of the object

does not change the motion of an object

is equal to the weight of the object

A force is a push or a pull upon an object resulting from the object's interaction with another object.

It is the amount of space between two points.

According to Newton's second Law, which would take more force to slow down?

They would both take the same force

Which of these best states Newton's Second Law?

The greater the mass of an object the greater the force needed to change its motion.

The greater the mass of an object the less force needed to change its motion.

The mass of an object does not effect the force needed to change its motion

If you push a basketball and a bowling ball with the same amount of force, which one will accelerate more?

They will accelerate at the same rate

how much distance is covered over a period of time

the change in the location of a object

What is happening at D?

Fast steady speed; moving away from the starting position

Slower steady speed; moving away from the starting position

What is happening at E?

Steady speed; returning to start position

Fast steady speed; moving away from the starting position

What is happening at A?

Slower steady speed; moving away from the starting position

Steady speed; returning to start position
