Newton's 2nd and 3rd Laws of Motion

Football A has a greater mass than football B.  Which football will have greater acceleration when both are thrown with the same force in the same direction?

• Football A
• Football B
• They will have the same acceleration
• Mass has no effect on acceleration

How can Newton's second law be represented  mathematically? 

• F=MA
• M= F/A
• A= F/M
• All are correct

Will it take more force to push an empty shopping cart or a shopping cart that is full?

• The empty shopping cart
• The full shopping cart
• They will take the same amount of force

Which shopping cart will have more acceleration?  

• The empty shopping cart
• The shopping cart that's full
• They will be the same

Why would one ball travel a greater distance than the other when pushed with the same amount of force?

• Different sizes
• Different weights
• Different masses
• Different forces

To make a ball move faster, you need to increase:

• The friction under the ball
• The force applied to the ball
• The mass of the ball
• The size of the ball

Find the net force

• 0N
• 50N
• 50N to the left
• 50N to the right

The equation that correctly expresses Newton's 2nd law is:

• force=mass-acceleration
• force=mass/acceleration
• force=mass + acceleration
• force=mass x acceleration

If a 10 kilogram object accelerates suddenly at 15 m/s^2, how much force was applied to the object?

• 150 Newtons
• 15 Newtons
• 150 kilograms
• 100 kilograms
