What is the unit of measurement for forces?
Newtons
Define Newton’s First Law of Motion and Inertia and give an example
An object will stay at rest unless an unbalanced force acts upon the object. (Spinning top demonstration)
Define Newton’s Second Law of Acceleration
Fnet=ma
1 newton is equivalent to
1 kg mass and an acceleration of 1 m/s2
Define net force of a system?
The sum of all the forces acting on a system
Define Newton’s Third Law of Motion
For every action there is an equal but opposite reaction
