ACP Homework 1

Front

What is force?

Back

Force is a push or pull on an object resulting from the object's interaction with another object. It is measured in Newtons (N).

Front

What is the formula to calculate force?

Back

Force (F) = Mass (m) × Acceleration (a)

Front

What is mass?

Back

Mass is a measure of the amount of matter in an object, typically measured in kilograms (kg).

Front

What is acceleration?

Back

Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity of an object. It is measured in meters per second squared (m/s²).

Front

How do you calculate acceleration?

Back

Acceleration (a) = Change in velocity (Δv) / Time (t) taken for the change.

Front

What is the unit of force?

Back

The unit of force is the Newton (N).

Front

If a 25 kg bowling ball is accelerated at 2 m/s², what is the force applied?

Back

50 N (calculated using F = m × a).

Front

What is the relationship between mass, acceleration, and force?

Back

According to Newton's second law, the force acting on an object is equal to the mass of the object multiplied by its acceleration (F = m × a).

Front

What is the acceleration of an object if a force of 100 N is applied to a mass of 25 kg?

Back

4 m/s² (calculated using a = F/m).

Front

What does it mean if an object has a constant velocity?

Back

If an object has a constant velocity, it means that it is moving at a constant speed in a straight line, and its acceleration is zero.
