CW# _____________EUREKA! NEWTON’S LAWS
NEWTONS’S 1ST LAW: (segment 1)
1. What does Newton’s 1st law state?
2. What is required to get something moving?
3. Describe what the term “inertia” means
NEWTONS’S 2nd LAW:
Segment 2: mass
4. (Using the picture below as an example, sketch and explain the
relationship between an object’s mass and its inertia).
Segment 3: Speed
5) Describe the relationship between an object’s mass and the force
required to stop it
6) Describe the relationship between an object’s speed and the
force required to stop it
Segment 4: Acceleration
7) Write the equation for Newton’s 2nd law. Then explain it in words
Practice A: Draw the force arrows to show equal forces acting on equal masses
