Newton's Laws & Forces Quiz

10 N East + 10 N West =

The more inertia that an object has, the more mass that it has.

If the sum of all the forces acting on a moving object is zero, the object will

 30 N South + 50 N North =

1 Newton = 1 kg • m/s2

The sum of all forces acting upon an object is known as:

Calculate the force of a 21 kg football player running at a rate of 3 m/s²

If the mass of an object is decreased, its inertia

When all the forces acting upon an object balance

Force created when a large object (like a planet) attracts another toward it.

Frictional force which acts on objects travelling through air.

The resistance an object to a change in its state of motion.

In a weightless environment, would it require a force to set a resting object in motion?

When objects are in free fall only this force is acting on them.

The result of unbalanced forces

Force exerted by a surface as an object moves across it.

What is the acceleration of an object with a 42 Newton force that has a mass of a 6 kg?

What is the unit for acceleration?

Force that opposes motion between two surfaces

Rockets can be used to specifically illustrate action/reaction which is which Newton’s law? 

20 N -->  + 20 N --> =

Name two types of friction

Force is a quantity that is measured using the standard metric unit known as

Force equals mass times acceleration. F=m*a

Which situation describes an object that has no unbalanced force acting on it?

The Formula y=1/2gt² is used to measure distance when objects are in free fall

Diagram used to visualize the magnitude and direction of all forces acting upon an object.

For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction

An object in motion stays in motion unless acted on by an unbalanced force

A force is described as _________ or _________ that acts on an object.

<-- 40 N + 20 N --> =
