Newton’s Laws 100

What is an example of force = mass X acceleration?

Back to Jeopardy Game Board

Newton’s Laws 100

It takes more force to push a full shopping cart than an empty one

because a full cart has more mass.

Back to Jeopardy Game Board

Newton’s Laws 200

What is an example of Newton’s Law that says that for every action, there is

Newton’s Laws 300

Explain each of Newton’s three laws.

Back to Jeopardy Game Board

Newton’s Laws 300

First Law: Objects resist changes in motion (inertia)

Second Law: The greater the mass of an object the greater the force needed to change its motion. (Force = Mass X Acceleration)

Third Law: For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction

Gravity

Back to Jeopardy Game Board

Newton’s Laws 500

Define gravity and explain the two factors that affect an object’s gravity

Back to Jeopardy Game Board

Newton’s Laws 500

Gravity is: All objects are attracted to one another

The two factors that affect gravity are the mass of the object and the

distance to the object.
