Newton's Second Law
Newton's First Law
Newton's Third Law
Law of Conservation of Energy
2. An object at rest tends to stay at rest, and an object in motion tends to stay in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by an unbalanced force. This statement describes:
Momentum
Acceleration
Newton's First Law
Gravity
1. The tendency of an object to resist changes in its state of motion is called .
2. If the net force acting on an object is zero, the object is said to be in .
3. An object in motion will stay in motion with constant unless acted upon by an unbalanced force.
1. An object can be moving at a constant velocity even if there are forces acting on it.
True
False
