15 Questions
What did Newton's laws of motion investigate?
The relationship between force, mass, and change in motion
When a body exerts a force on another body, what happens?
An equal amount of force is exerted back on it
What did Galileo work on just prior to Newton's time?
Laws of motion
What is the relationship between the appearance of stationary objects and a fast-moving vehicle?
The stationary objects appear to be moving rather than the vehicle
What can be inferred when investigating the relationship between force and mass to the amount of change in motion?
The greater the force applied, the greater the change in motion
What did Newton's laws of motion investigate?
The relationship between force applied and the mass of an object to the amount of change in its motion
What can be inferred when a body exerts a force on another?
An equal amount of force is exerted back on it
What did Galileo work on just prior to Newton's time?
Studied the motion of objects and the concept of inertia
What is the relationship between the appearance of stationary objects and a fast-moving vehicle?
The stationary objects may appear to be moving rather than the vehicle
What can be inferred from investigating the relationship between force applied and the mass of an object to the amount of change in its motion?
The greater the force applied, the greater the change in motion for a given mass
What is the relationship between the amount of force applied and the mass of an object to the amount of change in the object’s motion?
The greater the force applied, the greater the change in the object's motion.
When a body exerts a force on another, what happens?
An equal amount of force is exerted back on it.
When a fast-moving vehicle passes by stationary objects, how do they appear?
They appear like they are the ones moving rather than the vehicle.
What did Galileo work on just prior to Newton’s time?
Studying the motion of falling objects.
What can be inferred when investigating the relationship between force and mass to the amount of change in motion?
The greater the mass, the greater the force required for a change in motion.
