Newton's Laws of Motion

Question 1

Write a hypothesis for Part I of the lab, which is about the effect on an object being carried by a car, when the car experiences a sudden impact. Use the format of "if . . . then . . . because . . . ” and be sure to answer the lesson question "How can Newton's laws be experimentally verified?” specific to Newton’s first law.

Revolt · Accepted Answer

first

Question 4

What did you include in your hypothesis? Check all that apply.

Revolt · Accepted Answer

defines Newton’s first law; mentions the motion of objects; provides a reason for the object’s motion; mentions inertia

Question 5

Write a hypothesis for Part II of the lab, which is about the relationship described by F = ma. In the lab, you will use a toy car and apply forces to it. Use the format of "if . . . then . . . because . . .” and be sure to answer the lesson question "How can Newton's laws be experimentally verified?” specific to Newton’s second law.

Revolt · Accepted Answer

If force is applied to a car, then its acceleration will change proportionally, as predicted by Newton’s second law, F ma.
