    This document contains 25 multiple choice questions about Newton's Laws of Motion. Newton's Laws of Motion describe the relationship between an object's mass, its motion (including velocity and acceleration), and the applied force. Specifically, the first law deals with inertia, the second law relates force, mass, and acceleration, and the third law concerns action-reaction pairs between interacting objects.

    Newton’s Laws of Motion

    1. Which law is associated with inertia?

    2. If you increase the force on an object what happens to the acceleration?

    3. If you use the same force on a less massive object what happens to the acceleration?

    4. Which law states force is dependent on the mass and acceleration of an object?

    5. What causes an object to slowdown or speed-up?.

    6. What law is known as the law of action-reaction?

    7. Which law explains why when you bump into something you fall backwards?

    8. If you double the force of an object what happens to the acceleration?

    9. If you double the mass of an object what happens to the acceleration?

    10. Force is measured in newtons (N). A newton is based on base units in the metric system. What is
    a newton equal to in terms of units of mass and acceleration?

    11. When Jane drives to work, she always places her purse on the passenger’s seat. By the time she
    gets to work, her purse has fallen on the floor in front of the passenger seat. One day, she asks you
    to explain why this happens in terms of physics. What do you say?

    12. You are waiting in line to use the diving board at your local pool. While watching people dive into
    the pool from the board, you realize that using a diving board to spring into the air before a dive is a
    good example of Newton’s third law of motion. Explain how a diving board illustrates Newton’s third
    law of motion.

    13. You know the mass of an object and the force applied to the object to make it move. Which of
    Newton’s laws of motion will help you calculate the acceleration of the object?

    14. How many newtons of force are represented by the following amount: 3 kg·m/sec2 ? Justify your
    answer.

    15. Your shopping cart has a mass of 65 kilograms. In order to accelerate the shopping cart down an
    aisle at 0.3 m/sec2 , what force would you need to use or apply to the cart?

    16. A small child has a wagon with a mass of 10 kilograms. The child pulls on the wagon with a force
    of 2 newtons. What is the acceleration of the wagon?

    17. You dribble a basketball while walking on a basketball court. List and describe at least 3 pairs of
    action-reaction forces in this situation.
    18. A 2-kg object is moving horizontally with a speed of 4 m/s. How much net force is required to
    keep the object moving at this speed and in this direction? Explain.

    19. What two variables is acceleration dependent on? What is the relationship between these
    variables and acceleration? (i.e. if you increase one variable what happens to the acceleration?)

    20. If an object is not accelerating what can you determine about the sum of all the forces on the
    object?

    21. If the net force on an object is in a negative direction, what will the direction of the resulting
    acceleration be?

    22. If you double the net force on an object what is the result on the acceleration?

    23. If you double the mass of an object while leaving the net force unchanged what is the result on
    the acceleration?

    24. What is the rate of acceleration of a 2,000-kilogram truck if a force of 4,200 N is used to make it
    start moving forward?

    25. What is the mass of an object that needs a force of 6 600 N to increase its speed from rest to 107
    m/s in 2.3 seconds?
