The Newton’s Third Law of Motion states that ______________.
• For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.
The exertion of physical strength.
• Force
The force which opposes the movement of one surface sliding or rolling over another with which
it is in contact; the act of rubbing the surface of the body.
• Friction
A push or a pull; any movement or change in position.
• Motion
The tendency of an object in motion to stay in motion and an object at rest to remain at rest
unless acted upon by an unbalanced force
• Inertia
An invisible force that pulls objects towards the earth.
• Gravity
What are Newton’s three laws of motion?
• Law of Inertia, Law of Acceleration, Law of Interaction.
Force is measured in _________ in the International System of Units (SI).
• Newton (N)
Who is known for formulating the 3 laws of motion?
• Issac Newton
True/False: The shape and size of the object can change when a force is applied to a soft object.
• True
True/False: No work is done if the object you push moves a distance in the direction toward
which you are pushing it.
• False
True/False: No work is done if the force you exert does not make the object move in the same
direction as the force you exerted.
• True
It is the rate of change of velocity of an object or the change in velocity over a time interval.
• Acceleration
__________________ refers to the shortest distance between the object’s two positions, like the
distance between its point of origin and its point of destination, no matter what path it took to get
to that destination.
• Displacement
What is d in the W=Fd?
• d is displacement
What is the unit for work (W)?
• joules (J)
This refers to the entire path that the object travels.
• Distance
Speed is defined as ______________.
• distance traveled divided by the time of travel
When is an object considered to be in motion?
I. When its position changes with respect to a point of reference.
II. When its distance changes with respect to a point of reference.
III. When its direction changes with respect to a point of reference.
A. I and II only
B. I and III only
C. II and III only
D. I, II, and III
• D
Which of the following is true about an object that travels 5 meters to the left, then 2 meters up,
then another 5 meters to the right?
A. The displacement of the object is equal to 12 meters.
B. The total distance traveled by the object is equal to 12 meters.
C. The displacement of the object is equal to 12 meters down.
D. The total distance traveled by the object is equal to 12 meters down.
• B
Which of the following statements is NOT true about the object moving with constant speed?
A. The object is not accelerating
B. The speed of the object is equal to zero.
C. The distance traveled by the object increases uniformly
D. The speed of the object remains the same all throughout the travel
• B
What is the formula for Force?
• Force =Mass x Acceleration
__________ is the force exerted on an object due to gravity.
• Weight
The amount of matter in an object.
• Mass
What happens to an object’s acceleration if its mass increases but the force remains constant?
• The acceleration decreases
It is the ability to do work or cause change.
• Energy
___________ is the speed of an object at a specific moment in time.
• Instantaneous speed
It refers to the size or strength of the force.
• Magnitude
Which Newton’s Law of Motion states that “The acceleration of an object is directly
proportional to the magnitude of the net force acting on it and is inversely proportional to its
mass”?
• The Second Law of Motion: Law of Acceleration
What is a form of motion where an object given an initial velocity is thrown or projected and is
allowed to be acted on by gravity in a curved path?
A. Project Motion B. Projectile Motion
C. Target Motion D. Trajectory Motion
