Two cars with different masses travel at the same speed down a hill toward a stop sign. What will happen when both cars apply brakes at the same time to stop?

F.The car with the smaller mass will require less force to stop than the car with the larger mass

G.The car with the larger mass will maintain its velocity while traveling down the hill.

H.The car with the smaller mass will take longer to

Stop than the car with the larger mass.

J. The car with the larger mass will have less inertia than the car with the smaller mass.

F = ma

The smaller the mass, the faster it can stop

An object will continue moving in a straight line unless it is acted on by an unbalanced force. Which of the following best explains Earth’s motion?A.There is no unbalanced force acting on Earth because space is empty and nothing touches Earth.B. The gravitational force pulling Earth toward the sun is equal and opposite to the force pulling the sun toward Earth, so there is no unbalanced force acting on Earth.C.The sun moves in an elliptical orbit around Earth, and the sun’s gravity pulls Earth along.D.Earth moves in an elliptical orbit around the sun because the gravitational force of the sun attracts Earth. A 300

D

The Earth would move in a straight line through space if the sun’s gravity did not keep

it in orbit.

Some students measure the acceleration of a wheeled cart being acted on by varying forces. The students record their data in the table shown above. According to the data table, how much force is acting on the cart when the students measure an acceleration of 2.6 m/s2? (find the mass from the given data, then find the force for the last one.)

m = f/a

M = 5/1 = 5 grams

F = ma = 5 x 2.6 = 13

Sometimes tectonic plates do not move easily past one another, and the plates become stuck. Forces build up, and when the plates finally move, tension is released, as shown above. The sudden movement of the plates is caused by: * The mass of the plates

* the weight of the plates• Unbalanced forces• Gravitational forces

Which of the following is considered to be work?

•A body builder lifts 350 pounds above his head. •A mother carries her baby from room to room. •A woman carries a 20 km grocery bag to her car? •A body builder holds 350 pounds over his head for 5 minutes

B 100

A body builder LIFTS 350 lbs over his head.

Work is moving a FORCE through a DISTANCE. When he holds it over

his head, he is not moving it through a distance.

Calculate: If a man pushes a concrete block 10 meters with a force of 20 N, how much work has he done?

The diagram shows a boat moving NORTH in a river at 3m/s while the current in the river moves SOUTH at 1 m/s.

How will the boat be affected if it enters a part of the river where the current is moving south at 2 m/s?

* The boat will move slower* The boat will move faster* The boat will stop* The boat will move to the west

This is a simple force problem

3 m/s North minus 2 m/s South (subtract forces going in opposite

directions) equals 1 m/s North. The boat will be moving slower than it was before, when it was moving

North at 2 m/s (3m/s N – 1 m/s S = 2 m/s N)

Which of the following situations shows work being done?A. Student sitting in chair holding both boxesB.Student holding the large box 1 m above the floorC.Student standing and holding the small box.D.Student lifting the small box 0.5 m from the floor to a table.

.5 m x 1.3N = .65 N-m (Joules)

Work is done only in D. None of the others move

a force through a distance.

Which best explains the student’s data?F.The speed of the cart DECREASES as the cart rolls down the ramp because of FRICTION between the cart and the ramp.G.The speed of the cart INCREASES as the cart rolls down the ramp because the force acting on the cart is GREATER than the force of GRAVITY.H.The speed of the cart INCREASES as the cart rolls down the ramp because the forces acting on the cart are UNBALANCED.

H. The speed of the cart INCREASES as the cart rolls down the ramp because the forces acting on the cart are UNBALANCED.

The force pulling the cart down the ramp IS gravity, not a force GREATER than gravity, as in answer G.

The cart is clearly INCREASING speed, not DECREASING, as in F.

In the classroom demonstration shown below, a rubber ball is dropped from position 1. The ball bounces as shown. At which position does the ball have both the greatest potential energy and the least

kinetic energy?

Position 1 Position 2 Position 3 Position 4

Position 1.

Potential energy is stored energy; Kinetic energy is

energy of motion. The ball will fall farthest and pick up

most acceleration from position 1

Propane is a potential energy. It is a chemical which can be turned into heat (thermal energy) by burning; the  mechanical energy is the sum of potential energy and kinetic energy. It is the energy associated with the motion and position of an object; the balloon rises, turning the potential energy into kinetic energy, thus, mechanical energy.

Why does Earth get more energy from the sun than from all the other stars in the universe combined?

A.The sun is much larger than the other stars

B.The sun is much hotter than the other stars

C.The sun is much more dense than the other stars

D. The sun is much closer than the other stars

D

The sun is our closest star. It is the only one

close enough to receive heat energy from.

A car travels at a constant speed of 15 m/s for 2 minutes. The car increases its speed from 15 to 25 m/s during the next minute and then travels at a constant speed of 25 m/s for 2 more minutes. Which of the following graphs best represents the car’s motion during this 5-minute period?

The 3 vehicles shown are all traveling at a speed of 15 m/s, but only the pickup truck has a changing velocity.

The pickup truck has a changing velocity because it: A. can accelerate faster than the other two vehiclesB. Is traveling in the opposite direction from the other two vehiclesC. Is traveling on a curve in the roadD. Needs a large amount of force to move

C

An object accelerates when it SPEEDS UP, SLOWS DOWN, or

CHANGES DIRECTION. The truck is going through a curve—

changing direction.D 300
