One newton is the force that can give a mass of 1 kg an acceleration of _____________

1 m/s^2

What unbalanced force is needed to give a 854,000 g vehicle an acceleration of 1.25 m/s2?

1.068 x 10^3 N

What unbalanced force is needed to give a 976 kg vehicle an acceleration of 2.50 m/s2?

Newton's third law

The law that states that for every action force there is an equal and opposite reaction force is ____________________________

Newton's third law of motion.

The curved path that an object follows when thrown, launched, or otherwise projected near the surface of Earth; the motion of objects that are moving in two dimensions under the influence of gravity is _______.
