NGSS 8th Grade

What is Newton's FIRST law?

• An object that is a rest will remain at rest, and an object in motion will stay in motion unless an outside force acts upon it

• If a force increases, so will mass and acceleration. If mass or acceleration decrease, so will force.

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

What is Newton's THIRD law?

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

• An object at rest will remain at rest, and an object in motion will stay in motion unless an outside force acts upon it.

• If force increases, so will mass and acceleration. If mass or acceleration decrease, so will force.
