An object at rest will stay at rest and that an object moving with constant velocity will continue to move with constant velocity unless an unbalanced force acts on the object.
1 of 6
What will a resultant force on an object cause?
The object to accelerate in the same direction as the resultant force.
2 of 6
State Newton's second law of motion.
The force needed to accelerate a particle is equal to the product of the mass of the particle and the acceleration produced: F=ma.
3 of 6
Describe what weight is.
The force due to gravity acting on an object is called the weight of the object, and it acts vertically downwards: W=mg.
4 of 6
Describe how to solve problems involving connected particles.
By considering the particles separately or, if they are moving in the same straight line, as a single particle.
5 of 6
State Newton's third law of motion.
For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction.
