DOK Level 1: Recall

Which of the following best describes Newton's First Law of Motion?

• An object will remain at rest or in uniform motion unless acted upon by an external force.

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

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

• The force of gravity acts on all objects with mass.

What is inertia?

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

• The force that opposes motion between two surfaces.

• The rate of change of velocity.

• The energy stored in an object due to its position.
