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 =
F
=
m
a
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
