2) Where did he go to school?

3) Was he married and if so to who?

 

Process

Newton's first law!

4)Describe what happens if you are riding a skateboard and hit something (like a curb) with the front wheels!

5)What is another name for the first law of motion? Why is it given that name?

6) How can Newton’s laws be used to explain how rockets are launched into space?

 

Evaluation

Newton's second law

7)Describe what happens if you try and push Mr. Hawkins, What happens if he pushes back?

8) Using Newton’s laws explain why heavier objects require more force than lighter objects to move or accelerate them?

9) How do Newton’s laws affect your daily life?

Conclusion

Newton's third law

10)What happens according to Newton if you let an untied balloon go?

11)Describe why you hold your gun next to your shoulder while deer hunting.

12 ) Why should we wear seat belts – use one of Newton’s Laws in your answer?

Answer's to this quiz 

1)January 4, 1643 , united kingdom

2) trinity college, cambridge

3) Hannah Ayscough

4)Your body will keep moving forward and fly off your skateboard since the curb only stops the board, not yourself.

5)Law of inertia

6)Newton’s third law would tell us that when the rocket pushes out fire with a specific amount of force, the rocket will move in the opposite direction, but with the same amount of force. This is what causes the rocket to shoot up into the air.

7)If you put force on Mr. Hawkin's , force will be put back on you. Because of Mr. Hawkin’s mass, you most likely will not have enough force to make him accelerate. If Mr. Hawkin's pushed you, you most likely would move in the direction of the force since he has more mass.

8)Something with more mass moving at the same acceleration as a lighter object would require more force to change its speed or change its direction. Our formula F=m x a is derived from Newton’s second law.

9)Answers will vary, but EVERYTHING that happens in our lives can be connected back to one of Newton’s 3 laws of motion since force is involved in everything.

10)Air will rush out of the balloon forcing the balloon to move through the air in the opposite direction, but equal in force.

11)When you pull the gun’s trigger, it forces the bullet out of the gun, but at the same time, the gun is forced in the opposite direction of the bullet (towards you). Your shoulder is a new force that is introduced in order to keep your gun from flying away from you.

12)We should wear seatbelts so if we are in an accident our body doesn’t keep moving at the same speed and in the same direction that the car was going. A new force would be introduced to our bodies (the seatbelt) in order to keep our bodies in place.
