Key Topics to Revise

1

8.1 Balanced and Unbalanced Forces

  • Force is a push, pull, or hit that can change the state of motion of an object
  • We cannot see force directly, but we can observe its effects on objects
  • Forces can change the speed, direction, shape, or size of objects
2

8.2 Newton's First Law of Motion (Law of Inertia)

  • Based on Galileo's observations of objects on inclined planes
  • An object at rest remains at rest unless acted upon by an unbalanced force
  • An object in uniform motion continues in uniform motion unless acted upon by an unbalanced force
3

8.3 Inertia and Mass

  • All objects have inertia, but not the same amount
  • Mass is the quantitative measure of inertia
  • Heavier objects have more inertia and are harder to accelerate
4

8.4 Newton's Second Law of Motion

  • The acceleration of an object is directly proportional to the net force acting on it
  • The acceleration is inversely proportional to the mass of the object
  • Force equals mass times acceleration (F = ma)
