Question

Drag and drop each item into the correct column based on Newton's Laws of Motion.

A ball is rolling straight across the floor until Bradley kicks it.
A bowling ball and a baseball both roll across your foot at the same speed. The bowling ball hurts much more.
When riding the bumper cars at the fair, you bump into your friend, and your car bounces backward.
Your car breaks down. As your friends help you push it, it begins to move and speed up.

Answer 1

Newton's Laws of Motion describe the behavior of objects in motion.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to Newton's Laws of Motion:

1. An object in motion will continue to move in a straight line at a constant speed unless acted upon by an external force. So, the ball rolling straight across the floor until Bradley kicks it demonstrates Newton's First Law.
2. The force required to change the motion of an object is proportional to its mass and acceleration. The bowling ball hurting more when compared to a baseball rolling across your foot at the same speed demonstrates Newton's Second Law.
3. For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. Your car bouncing backward when bumping into your friend's car at the bumper cars fair demonstrates Newton's Third Law.
