Four different students take turns pushing a large, heavy ball on the school parking lot. What is the best way to determine which student used the most force to push the ball?

• compare the sizes of the students
• compare the ages of the students
• compare the distances that the ball rolled
• compare the number of times the ball was rolled

Which is the force that pulls a ball to the ground after being dropped?

• friction
• air resistance
• gravity
• inertia 

What can cause a moving object to increase its speed in a forward direction?

• a force pushing on the object from the opposite direction
• a force that continually acts on the object in the direction the object is moving
• an increase in the mass of the object
• a decrease in the mass of the object

A child rides a wagon down a hill. Eventually, the wagon comes to a stop. Which is most responsible for causing the wagon to stop?

• gravity acting on the wagon
• friction acting on the wagon
• the mass of the wagon
• the mass of the child

A student is pushing a box of books across the floor.   The student stops, removes some of the books, and then continues pushing the box across the floor.    Which best explains how removing some of the books affected the motion of the object?

• Removing some of the books reduced the mass of the box, and less force was needed to push it across the floor.
• Removing some of the books reduced the mass of the box, and more force was needed to push it across the floor.
• Removing some of the books did not affect the amount of force needed to push it across the floor.
• Removing some of the books decreased the mass of the box, and the same amount of force was needed to push it across the floor.
