Question

Can you write some short and simple sentences to answer these questions please?

Momentum is the product of an object’s mass and its velocity. (Momentum = mass x velocity)

For an object to change its momentum, what type of force must act on the object?


Are net forces balanced or unbalanced?

What does Newton’s First Law of Motion state?



What causes an object’s motion or direction to change?

What is Newton’s first law of motion also known as?



What is inertia? (It’s not just a property of matter, like Bill Nye says)


Why will a bike rider continue to move forward even after the curb has stopped the bike?



Note- some other forces that can act on objects are gravity, friction, and air resistance.

Sure! Here are short and simple sentences to answer your questions:

**Momentum and Forces:**
1. A net force must act on the object.
2. Net forces can be unbalanced.

**Lesson 8: Newton’s First Law**
1. The objective is to learn about motion and forces.
2. Newton’s First Law states that an object at rest stays at rest, and an object in motion stays in motion unless acted upon by a force.
3. A force causes an object’s motion or direction to change.
4. It is also known as the law of inertia.

**Inertia:**
1. Inertia is the tendency of an object to resist changes in its motion.
2. A bike rider will continue to move forward due to inertia after the curb stops the bike.

**Lesson 9: Newton’s Second Law**
1. The objective is to understand the relationship between force, mass, and acceleration.
2. More force is needed to move a bowling ball because it has more mass than a beach ball.
