Newton's three laws of motion Score:

1.    For every action there is an equal but opposite reaction refers to

A The Law of Conservation of Momentum

B acceleration

C Newton's Third Law of Motion

D Newton's Second Law of Motion

2.    Newton's First Law of Motion is also known as

A the Law of Inertia

B gravity

C vertical motion

D the Law of Conservation of Momentum

3.    How will an acceleration be increased as the net force increases depending on

its ...
A density

B shape

C mass

D volume

4.    What is the formula used for Newton's Second Law of Motion?

A speed = distance divided by time

B velocity = acceleration x time

C momentum = mass x volume

D net force = mass x acceleration

5.    An object in motion stays in motion in a straight line, unless acted upon by a
nonzero net force. An object at rest will stay at rest until acted upon by a nonzero
net force.

10.    While driving down the road, a firefly strikes the windshield of a bus and makes
a quite obvious mess in front of the face of the driver. Which of the two forces is
greater: the force on the firefly by the bus, or the force on the bus by the firefly?
Why?
