New cards

Newton’s First Law

Also called the Law of Inertia; it states that an object at rest stays at rest, and an object in motion stays in motion unless acted upon by an unbalanced force.

2
New cards

Inertia

The tendency of an object to resist changes in its motion.

3
New cards

Newton’s Second Law

Explains the relationship between force, mass, and acceleration using the formula F = m × a.

4
New cards

Force (F)

A push or pull acting on an object; calculated using mass times acceleration and measured in newtons (N).

5
New cards

MASS (m)

The amount of matter in an object; it affects how much force is needed to move the object

6
New cards

Acceleration (A)

The rate of change in velocity; increases with more force or decreases with more mass.

7
New cards

Newton’s third law

states that for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction

8
New cards

Action-Reaction Force Pair

Two forces that are equal in size and opposite in direction, acting on different objects.

9
New cards

unit of force

  • The newtons named by Isaac newtons 1(N) = 1kg -(m s)

10
New cards

Law of action and reaction

  • In Newton's Third Law, the forces have equal magnitude but opposite direction.
