Newton’s First Law
• An object moves with a constant velocity, unless acted on by a ________ net force.– Velocity is a vector: magnitude and direction
• Net force: _______ _____ of all forces exerted on object
Inertia vs. Mass
• Inertia: tendency of object to continue its _______ in the __________ of forces
• Mass: measure of object’s __________ to ________ in _______ due to force
Newton’s Second Law
• Acceleration of an object is – directly __________ to net force acting on it– _________ proportional to object’s mass
