Question | Answer |
what was newtons first 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.
|
what was newtons second law | motion pertains to the behavior of objects for which all existing forces are not balanced. The second law states that the acceleration of an object is dependent upon two variables - the net force acting upon the object and the mass of the object.
| what was newtons third law | Newton's third law is: For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. The statement means that in every interaction, there is a pair of forces acting on the two interacting objects. The size of the forces on the first object equals the size of the force on the second object.
| what is gravity? | the force that attracts a body toward the center of the earth, or toward any other physical body having mass.
| what is acceleration? | a vehicle's capacity to gain speed within a short time |
