Name \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_ Hour \_\_\_\_\_\_ **Chapter 2: Newton's First Law of Motion** **Big Quiz: 2.1-2.6, Metrics, Sig. Figs.** **I. Fill in the Blank** *Use the words from the word bank to fill in each definition. (7 points)* 1\. A push or a pull is a \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_. 2\. \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_ = distance / time. 3\. A \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_ is a quantity that specifies direction as well as magnitude. 4\. An example of a vector quantity is \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_. 5\. \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_ is the property of things remaining at rest if at rest, and in motion if in motion. 6\. The scientific unit of force is the \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_. 7\. The combination of all forces acting on an object is called the \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_. **II. Short Answer** *Give thorough, yet concise answers to the following questions. Use science terminology! (13 points)* *Extra credit if you draw on the top of this page a stick figure image of Aristotle duking it out with Galileo.* 1\. Aristotle distinguished between two types of motion. What did he call those two types of motion? Also, explain each type of motion. (4 points) 2\. Aristotle used logic to prove his findings. Galileo used \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_. (1 point) 3\. What is the difference between speed and velocity? (2 points) 4\. Write Newton's First Law of Motion as well as you remember it. (2 points) 5\. How can you be both at rest and also moving at 100,000 km/h at the same time? (2 points) 6\. Can there be a force acting on an object if there is a net force of zero? Explain. (2 points) **[Significant Figures and Metrics]** How many significant figures are in each of the following numbers? 1\) 5.40 \_\_\_\_ 5) 101.0100 \_\_\_\_ 2\) 210 \_\_\_\_ 6) 0.00120 \_\_\_\_ 3\) 801.5 \_\_\_\_ 7) 0.0102 \_\_\_\_ 4\) 1,000 \_\_\_\_ 8) 2,370.0 \_\_\_\_ EC) 1.2 x 10^3^ \_\_\_\_ EC) 9.010 x 10^-6 ^\_\_\_\_ **Solve these math problems, rounding to the correct number of significant digits.** 1. 22.42 + 52.836 = \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_ 3) 0.00006 × 352 = \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_ 2. 103.243 -- 65.98 = \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_ 4) 5.0009 × 0.06 = \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_ **Fill in the missing boxes in the metrics chart below.** +-----------------+-----------------+-----------------+-----------------+ | | **What is it?** | **What's its | **What would I | | | | label?** | use to measure | | | | | it?** | +-----------------+-----------------+-----------------+-----------------+ | **Mass** | | | | +-----------------+-----------------+-----------------+-----------------+ | **Volume** | | **S:** | **S:** | | | | | | | **-solid** | | **L:** | **L:** | | | | | | | **-liquid** | | | | +-----------------+-----------------+-----------------+-----------------+ | **Distance** | Point to point | | A ruler | | | measurement | | | | | (ex. length, | | | | | width, | | | | | height...) | | | +-----------------+-----------------+-----------------+-----------------+ | **Density** | The amount of | | | | | matter per unit | | | | | of space | | | +-----------------+-----------------+-----------------+-----------------+ **Convert the following:** 1.3 kg = \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_ g 254 mm = \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_ m
