Newton's Laws of Motion

What is mass?

• A measure of the weight of an object

• A measure of the amount of matter in an object, which remains constant regardless of its location in the universe.

• A measure of the volume of an object

• A measure of the density of an object

What is momentum?

• The force applied to an object to change its motion.

• The product of an object's mass and its velocity, representing the quantity of motion an object has.

• The energy an object possesses due to its position or motion.

• The rate at which an object changes its velocity.

What are balanced forces?

• Forces that are equal in size but opposite in direction, resulting in no change in motion.

• Forces that are unequal in size and direction, causing an object to accelerate.

• Forces that act in the same direction, increasing the speed of an object.

• Forces that are always present in a moving object, regardless of its speed.

What is the difference between mass and weight?

• Mass is a measure of matter in an object and does not change, while weight is the force of gravity on that mass and can change depending on the gravitational field.

• Mass is the force of gravity acting on an object, while weight is the amount of matter in an object.

• Mass and weight are the same and can be used interchangeably in all contexts.

• Weight is constant regardless of location, while mass can change depending on the object's environment.

What is a force?

• A force is a push or pull exerted on an object that can cause it to change its velocity.

• A force is a type of energy that can be stored in an object.

• A force is a measurement of the mass of an object.

• A force is a reaction that occurs when two objects collide.

How does an object move when forces are balanced?

• The object will accelerate in the direction of the net force.

• The object will not move or will continue to move at a constant velocity.

• The object will come to a stop immediately.

• The object will move randomly in different directions.

What is weight?

• Weight is the mass of an object.

• Weight is the force exerted by gravity on an object.

• Weight is the amount of matter in an object.

• Weight is the volume of an object.

What is inertia?

• Inertia is the tendency of an object to resist changes in its state of motion.

• Inertia is the force that causes an object to accelerate.

• Inertia is the measure of an object's mass.

• Inertia is the energy stored in an object due to its motion.

What is friction?

• A force that accelerates an object in motion.

• A force that opposes the motion of an object, acting parallel to the surfaces in contact.

• A force that increases the speed of an object.

• A force that changes the direction of an object without affecting its speed.

What is Newton's Third Law of Motion?

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

• An object in motion stays in motion unless acted upon by an external force.

• The force of gravity is proportional to the mass of the objects involved.

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