Question

2.017) ______ which of newtons laws of motion states: \an object at rest tends to stay at rest, and an object in motion tends to stay in motion unless an outside force acts upon it\?
a. newtons first law of motion
b. newtons second law of motion
c. newtons third law of motion
2.018) ______ which of newtons laws of motion states: \for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction\?
a. newtons first law of motion
b. newtons second law of motion
c. newtons third law of motion
2.019) ______ which of newtons laws says that the force required to move an object is proportional to its mass?
a. newtons first law of motion
b. newtons second law of motion
c. newtons third law of motion
2.020) which three are patterns of motion in nature?
□ moon orbiting around earth
□ yo - yo moving up and down
□ tides moving in and out
□ gears in a watch moving
□ flag flapping back and forth in the wind

Explanation:

2.017: The described law defines inertia, which is Newton's first law.
2.018: The action-reaction statement is the core of Newton's third law.
2.019: The relationship between force, mass, and motion is described by Newton's second law ($F=ma$), where force is proportional to mass.
2.020: Natural motion patterns occur without human-engineered mechanisms. The moon's orbit, tides, and wind-driven flag motion are natural; yo-yo and watch gears are human-made.

Answer:

2.017: A. Newton's first law of motion
2.018: C. Newton's third law of motion
2.019: B. Newton's second law of motion
2.020:

• moon orbiting around Earth
• tides moving in and out
• flag flapping back and forth in the wind
