Amplify Force & Motion Engineering Internship

Front

What is iterative testing?

Back

Iterative testing is the process of repeating a design or experiment while considering the results of previous iterations to improve the outcome.

Front

What happens to the forces when an apple falls to the ground?

Back

Both the ground and the apple experience the same strength forces due to Newton's third law of motion.

Front

True or False: Changing an object's mass does not change the speed at which it falls, it only affects the impact force.

Back

True.

Front

Why does a larger parachute slow down an object better than a small parachute?

Back

The larger parachute has more surface area, which increases air resistance and slows down the descent.

Front

What is the relationship between the speed of colliding objects and the force experienced during the collision?

Back

The faster the objects are moving when they collide, the more force they experience during the collision.

Front

Define force in the context of motion.

Back

Force is a push or pull on an object that can cause it to change its velocity (speed or direction).

Front

What is Newton's first law of motion?

Back

An object at rest stays at rest, and an object in motion stays in motion at a constant velocity unless acted upon by a net external force.

Front

Explain the concept of air resistance.

Back

Air resistance is a type of friction that acts against the motion of an object moving through air, slowing it down.

Front

What is the effect of mass on the acceleration of an object?

Back

According to Newton's second law, the acceleration of an object is inversely proportional to its mass when the same force is applied.

Front

What is gravitational force?

Back

Gravitational force is the attractive force between two masses, such as the Earth and an object, which causes the object to fall.
