What does Newton's first law state about an object at rest or moving at constant velocity?

It remains so unless unbalanced force acts

What property does a body's inertia depend on?

Only its mass

What is net force?

Vector sum of all forces

On an incline at angle θ\theta, what is the gravitational force component perpendicular to slope?

mgcosθmg \cos \theta

In Newton's 3rd law, where do action-reaction force pairs act?

On different bodies

What is the normal force formula for an object with vertical acceleration averticala_{vertical}?

N=m(avertical+g)N = m(a_{vertical} + g)

A car brakes approaching a red light. What direction is the net force?

Backward (opposite to velocity)

What defines free fall?

Only gravity acts on the object

Why aren't gravity and normal force on you an action-reaction pair?

They both act on the same body

For blocks moving together as one system, how do you calculate acceleration from net force?

Add all masses: a=Fnet/(m1+m2+...)a = F_{net}/(m_1+m_2+...)
