Newton’s 1st & 2nd Law + 3rd.

Cards (8)

  • Newton's first law

    A resultant force is required to change the motion of an object
  • If there isn't a resultant force, the object's motion won't change
  • Newton's second law

    If a non-zero resultant force acts on an object, it will cause the object to accelerate
  • Newton's second law equation
    Force = Mass x Acceleration
  • Inertia is the tendency for the motion of an object to remain unchanged
  • Inertial mass measures how difficult it is to change an object's velocity
  • Any Change In The Direction Of The Object, Will Change The Velocity
  • The size of the resultant force is directly proportional to the acceleration of the object.
