Forces and Motion
... Newton’s First Law An object in motion will stay in motion and an object at rest will stay at rest until acted on by a force. Basically stated… objects keep moving until something slows them down (friction) and objects will stay still until something causes them to move (force) ...

Newton`s laws of motion
... Explaining motion - Aristotle vs Newton • For around 2000 years, Aristotle’s idea that motion needs forces prevailed. • Sir Isaac Newton used Gallileo’s thought experiments about rolling balls to state that the forces are required to change the motion of an object. Objects have a natural state of r ...

Newton`s Laws/ Simple Machine Notes
... An object in motion stays in motion, or an object at rest stays at rest until an unbalanced net force acts upon it Inertia: tendency of an object to resist any change in its motion Newton’s Second Law of Motion A net force acting on an object causes the object to accelerate in the direction of the f ...
