Science

This document defines key physics concepts like force, mass, acceleration, inertia and friction. It also summarizes Newton's three laws of motion: 1) Law of Inertia - an object at rest stays at rest and an object in motion stays in motion unless acted on by an unbalanced force. 2) Law of Acceleration - the acceleration of an object is directly proportional to the net force acting on it and inversely proportional to its mass. 3) Law of Interaction - for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. Formulas for force, work, potential and kinetic energy are also provided.

Law of Inertia - states that, an object at rest remains at rest,

Balanced Forces – has zero net force; thus, it has no Law of Acceleration - states that the acceleration of an object

Inertia – the tendency of an object to resist change in motion. Law of Interaction - states that “for every action, there is an
equal and opposite reaction.” A force exerted on any object is
always exerted back by an equal magnitude of force but in
opposite direction. In this law, forces always come in pairs;

these are called action and reaction forces.
