1

What is mass in terms of motion?

The property of an object that resists changes in motion.

New cards
2

What Newton Second Law it imply about acceleration and resultant force?

A larger net force acting on an object causes a larger acceleration, and objects with larger mass require more force to accelerate.

New cards
3

How is linear momentum defined?

The product of an object's mass and velocity

New cards
4

How is force defined in terms of momentum?

The rate of change of momentum

New cards
5

Can you state and apply Newton's First Law of Motion?

(Law of Inertia): An object at rest stays at rest, and an object in motion stays in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by an unbalanced force.

New cards
6

What does Newton's Second Law of Motion state and how is it applied?

The acceleration of an object is directly proportional to the net force acting on the object and inversely proportional to its mass.

New cards
7

Newton's Third Law of Motion explaination

For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.

New cards
8

Weight defintion

The effect of a gravitational field on a mass

New cards
9

Formula for Newton's First Law (Law of Inertia)

F(net) = 0

New cards
10

Formula for Newton's Second Law

F = ma

New cards
11

Formula for Newton's Third Law

Fa on b = -Fb on a

New cards
12

Weight formula

W = mg

New cards
13

Linear momentum formula

p = mv

New cards
14

Force Formula (In terms of momentum)

F = Δp / Δt = (mv - mu)/Δt

New cards
15

Principle of Conservation of Linear Momentum

Drag

force that increases with speed.

New cards
17

Frictional force

forces that oppose motion between surfaces

New cards
18
