Guided Notes
Key concepts students will learn:
- •
Newton's first law describes inertia, which is an object's tendency to resist changes in its state of motion.
- •
Newton's second law states that net force equals mass times acceleration, or F = ma.
- •
Newton's third law states that for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction, which explains the normal force.
