8th Grade Newton's Laws Worksheets

Ages 13-14 · Free previews · Print-ready PDFs

Written by Adi Ackerman, Head Teacher

Newton's laws describe how forces change motion: balanced forces keep motion steady, net force causes acceleration, and every force has an equal and opposite partner. There are 5 sheets for 8th grade here, each with an answer key. Newton's First Law on an Elevator Ride uses scale readings, Net Force Diagrams Down a Ski Slope uses a = F / m for a 70 kg skier, and Force Pairs in a Water Rocket Launch pairs each force with its partner. The sheets practice MS-PS2-1 and MS-PS2-2.

Frequently Asked Questions

Net force is the sum of all the forces on an object, with direction. When it is zero, the object keeps the same speed and direction. When it is not zero, the object speeds up, slows down or turns, with a = F / m.
