| Newtons First Law | An object in motion (or at rest) will tend to stay in motion (or at rest) until it is acted upon by an outside force. |
| Inertia | The tendency of an object to resist changes in its velocity. |
| Friction | A force that opposes motion, resulting from the contact of two surfaces. |

| Newton | The Newton is the standard unit of force and is defined as a: kg x m /sec² |
| Kinetic friction | Friction that opposes motion once the motion has already started. |

| Universal Law of Gravitation No. 1 | All objects with mass are attracted to one another by the gravitational force. |
| Universal Law of Gravitation No. 2 | The gravitational force between two masses is directly proportional to the mass of each object. |
| Universal Law of Gravitation No. 3 | The gravitational force between two masses is inversely proportional to the square of the distance between those two objects. |
| Centripetal force | The force necessary to make an object move in a circle. It is directed perpendicular to the velocity of the object, which means it points toward the centre of the circle. |
| Centripetal force No. 1 | Circular motion requires centripetal force. |
| Centripetal force No. 2 | The larger the centripetal force, the faster an object travels in a circle of a given size. |
