Newton's Laws Worksheet

During a friendly baseball match, Nate swings his bat and applies a force of 20 N onto the ball. Can you guess the force that the ball applies back onto Nate's bat?

• 10 N

• 20 N

• 30 N

• 40 N

Imagine Elijah and Bella are playing a game of tug-of-war. The forces are always on two different objects because:

• they are part of a single interaction and act on different objects.

• they are part of different interactions and act on the same object.

• they are part of a single interaction and act on the same object.

• they are part of different interactions and act on different objects.

Imagine Evie is pushing down on a giant cowboy boot. What force pushes back up against her?

• Gravity

• Friction

• Normal force

• Tension

Imagine Dylan and Bella are having a friendly competition at the grocery store. Dylan pushes a grocery cart, and the cart pushes back on him. Why isn't this a balanced force?

• they are equal and opposite forces.

• they act on the same object.

• they are different types of forces.

• they act on different objects.

Match the following:

• The earth pulling on the book

• Air pushing up on the rotors

• the rotors pushing down on Air

• Nail onto the hammer

• the air pushing on Baseball

• Book pulling up on the earth

• hammer onto the Nail

• Baseball pushing on the air

Imagine you're on a space adventure with Sam, Dylan, and Megan. You're exploring a mysterious planet where you need to figure out what influences mass. Can you help them solve this cosmic puzzle?

• Gravity

• Temperature

• Color

• Shape

Bella and Jaydon are floating in deep space, having a fun chat about physics. Bella asks, "Hey Jaydon, do you think we can have weight out here in deep space or if we were in free fall?"

• Yes, you can have weight without mass in deep space or free fall.

• No, you cannot have weight without gravity in deep space or free fall.

• It depends on the gravitational field present.

• Only in deep space, not in free fall.

Imagine Nate and Johanna are in a magical land where objects can change their mass. If Nate's magical rock suddenly has twice the mass, what does it have?

• Twice the weight

• Half the weight

• Twice the volume

• Half the volume

Elijah and Morgan are having a friendly competition to see who can move a box faster. Elijah's box is filled with sand, while Morgan's is empty. Why does Elijah need to exert more force to move his box?

• sand adds mass to the box, increasing its inertia

• sand reduces the weight of the box, increasing its inertia

• sand makes the box slippery, reducing inertia.

• sand changes the shape of the box, making it aerodynamic.

Peter and Noa are having a playful debate about why it's harder to stop a massive dump truck than a basketball. Can you help them figure it out?

• Because the dump truck has more inertia.

• Because the dump truck has less inertia.

• Because the dump truck is sharper.

• Because the dump truck is duller.
