Flashcards

Force

A push or pull that can cause a change in an object's motion.

Newton's 1st Law

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.

Newton's 2nd Law

The acceleration of an object is directly proportional to the net force acting on it and inversely proportional to its mass. (F = ma)

Newton's 3rd Law

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