“A passenger seated inside the bus tends to move back when the bus suddenly starts.”


This is an example of Newton’s:

1st Law of Motion

2
New cards

“A person standing on a carpet stumbles down when the carpet is pulled in an instant.”


This is an example of Newton’s:

1st Law of Motion

3
New cards

“A driver goes off the car’s windshield as the car suddenly stops due to a bumping accident.”


This is an example of Newton’s:

1st Law of Motion

4
New cards

Newton’s 1st Law of Motion is otherwise known as:

Law of Inertia

5
New cards

Newton’s 2nd Law of Motion is otherwise known as:

Law of Acceleration

6
New cards

Newton’s 3rd Law of Motion is otherwise known as:

Law of Interaction

7
New cards

The tendency of an object to maintain its state of motion. 

Inertia

8
New cards

The inertia that an object possesses depends on its:

Mass

9
New cards

“A tennis ball will accelerate faster than a basketball if thrown with the same amount of force.”


This is an example of Newton’s:

2nd Law of Motion

10
New cards

“A greater amount of force is needed to stop a bus than a bicycle if both are accelerating at the same rate.”


This is an example of Newton’s:

2nd Law of Motion

11
New cards

When a net force acts on an object, the object will:

Accelerate in the same direction of the net force.

12
New cards

If the net force is zero, then the acceleration will be:

0

13
New cards

We say that the net force is zero if the vector sum of forces acting on an object equals zero. That object is said to be:

In equilibrium

14
New cards

“As you push the water backward when you swim, the water pushes you forward.”


This is an example of Newton’s:

3rd Law of Motion

15
New cards

“As you push the ground backward as you walk, the ground pushes you forward.”


This is an example of Newton’s:

3rd Law of Motion

16
New cards

“When you punch a wall, your hand gets hurt because the wall also exerted a force equal in amount but in the opposite direction.”


This is an example of Newton’s:

3rd Law of Motion

17
New cards

This law proves that forces always come in pairs.

3rd Law of Motion

18
New cards

According to this law, gravity is the force that attracts two bodies toward each other.

Gravitational Law

19
New cards

According to Newton’s Law of Gravitation, the more massive an object is, the ________ its gravitational pull.

Stronger

20
New cards

Suppose that 2 objects attract each other with a gravitational force, F. If the mass of both objects were doubled, and if the distance between the objects were doubled, by how much would the new force of attraction between the 2 objects change?

No change
