Newtown’s thirds law of motion

Cards (10)

  • What should you be able to describe by the end of the video?
    Newton's third law of motion
  • How do the forces exerted by two interacting objects behave according to Newton's third law?
    They are equal and opposite
  • What is recommended to learn exactly for the exam regarding Newton's third law?
    The law as stated in the video
  • Why might Newton's third law seem tricky?
    It involves understanding interactions between objects
  • What happens when a man in a canoe uses a paddle?
    • The man pushes on the water
    • The water pushes back on the paddle
    • Forces are equal in magnitude, opposite in direction
  • What occurs when a skateboarder jumps off a skateboard?
    • The skateboarder applies a push force on the skateboard
    • The skateboard moves to the right
    • The skateboard pushes back on the skateboarder
    • The skateboarder moves to the left
  • How does a rocket's firing demonstrate Newton's third law?
    • Chemical reaction produces downward push on exhaust gases
    • Exhaust gases exert equal force upwards on the rocket
    • Forces are equal in magnitude, opposite in direction
  • What happens when a car is driving?
    • The wheel exerts a force in reverse on the road
    • The road exerts a force forward on the wheel
    • Forces are equal in magnitude, opposite in direction
  • Where can you find plenty of questions on Newton's third law?
    In the revision workbook
  • What is the relationship between the forces exerted by the wheel and the road when a car is driving?
    They are equal in magnitude but opposite in direction
