Laws of Motion

Cards (8)

  • What is mass defined as?
    Amount of matter
  • What does Newton's first law of motion state about an object at rest?
    It stays at rest
  • Match the term with its definition:
    Rest ↔️ Object is not moving
    Motion ↔️ Object is moving
    Force ↔️ Changes object's motion
  • What is the formula for Newton's second law of motion?
    F=F =ma ma
  • What is the unit for acceleration?
    m/s²
  • Match the term with its definition:
    Action ↔️ Force applied to an object
    Reaction ↔️ Equal and opposite force
  • Steps to apply Newton's laws of motion to solve problems
    1️⃣ Identify forces acting on the object
    2️⃣ Apply Newton's second law (F = ma)
    3️⃣ Use kinematic equations
  • A 5 kg box is pushed with a force of 20 N. What is the acceleration of the box?
    4 m/s²
