CP2B Newtons First Law

Question 1

State Newton’s first law for a stationary object

Answer 1

If the resultant force on a stationary object is zero, the object will remain at rest

Question 2

State Newton’s first law for a moving object

Answer 2

If the resultant force on a moving object is zero, the object will remain at constant velocity (same speed in same direction).

Question 3

What is circular motion

Answer 3

When an object is moving in a circle has changing velocity, even though its speed remains the same
