What would you need to move a soccer ball? friction gravity force inertia Which of these is an example of force? watching a slice of bread in the toaster pulling a casserole out of the oven listening to music in your bedroom watching a Youtube video Which object would require the most amount of energy, or force, to set it into motion? school bus small car refrigerator microwave Which of these would require the least amount of energy, or force, to set it in motion? school bus small car refrigerator microwave Your older brother tells you his paper airplane has inertia. What does this mean? It has too much resistance to fly more than a few feet from his hand. It is too heavy to stay in the air for long. It will keep flying until an outside force acts on it. It will require a lot of force to make it fly. While you’re ice-skating with your friends, you push off from one end of the rink and slide forward. Based on Newton’s first law of motion (inertia), what is true? You will lose your balance and fall over before you reach the other side of the rink. You will continue to slide across the ice until another force acts on you. The force of gravity will make you keep your speed until your friends make you stop. Your friend kicks a soccer ball, and it stops a few feet from you. What needs to happen to it in order for it to return to your friend? Friction has to be applied to the ball. Gravity has to be applied to the ball. Force must be applied to the ball. Inertia must be applied to the ball. What is the relationship between heavy objects and inertia? Heavy objects have more inertia. Heavy objects have less inertia. Which of the following words means a push or a pull? force motion inertia Which of the following words means an object will stay at rest or in motion until an outside force acts on it? force motion inertia
