- 1ForceThat which can cause acceleration
- 2Unit of forceNewton (N)
- 3Newton's 1st law of motionA body will remain at rest or continue moving at constant velocity unless acted upon by an unbalancing external force
- 4Application of Newton's 1st LawSeatbelts in cars are used to stop passengers continuing at a constant velocity when the car decelerates rapidly
- 5Newton's 2nd law of motionThe rate of change of momentum is proportional to the applied force and takes place in the direction of the force
- 6Application of Newton's 2nd LawHeavier objects require more force to move the same distance as lighter objects
- 7Special case of Newton's 2nd LawF = ma
- 8Newton's 3rd law of motionFor every action there is an equal and opposite reaction
- 9Application of Newton's 3rd LawWhen a rocket takes off, the rocket pushes down with the force of its engines, and this causes the ground to push the rocket upwards with an equal force
