Directions: On the line before each situation, write the letter of the law that describes it correctly. Some laws will be used more than once.

Newton's Laws of Motion
- A. First: Objects tend to resist a change in motion.
- B. Second: Unbalanced forces cause objects to accelerate.
- C. Third: For every action force, there is an equal but opposite reaction force.

1. A car travels down a highway at a constant speed. _____
2. A ball bounces off a wall. _____
3. A sailboat moves faster as the wind gets stronger. _____
4. The car slows down when the driver applies the brakes. _____
5. Books inside a car move forward as the car comes to a quick stop. _____
6. Water shoots downward as a toy rocket flies upward. _____



Answer :

Final answer:

Newton's laws of motion describe the relationship between forces and motion. Each law addresses different aspects of how objects move in response to forces.


Explanation:

Newton's first law: Every object will continue to be in a state of rest or move at a constant speed in a straight line unless it is compelled to change by an outside force.

Newton's second law: The change of motion of a body is proportional to and in the direction of the force acting on it.

Newton's third law: For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction (or: the mutual actions of two bodies upon each other are always equal and act in opposite directions).

  1. Scenario: A car travels down a highway at a constant speed.
    Law that applies: Newton's first law - the car will continue to move at a constant speed unless acted upon by an external force.
  2. Scenario: A ball bounces off a wall.
    Law that applies: Newton's third law - there is an equal and opposite reaction force when the ball hits the wall.
  3. Scenario: A sailboat moves faster as the wind gets stronger.
    Law that applies: Newton's second law - unbalanced forces cause objects to accelerate, in this case, the wind provides the force for the sailboat to accelerate.
