When the air in the balloon is released, the rocket will move forward.

Which of the following statements best describes the force that cause the motion in the situation explained above?

• The force of the balloon is pushing up on all sides as the air is released.

• The air outside the balloon pushes the balloon forward as it opposes the released air.

• The force of the released air is pushing backwards as the balloon gets smaller.

• The gravitational force is pulling down on the balloon as the air is released.

A soccer player kicks a stationary ball with 25 newtons of force northward. According to Newton's first law of motion, what happens to the ball?

• The ball travels northward with 50 newtons of force.

• The ball travels northward with 25 newtons of force.

• The ball travels southward with 50 newtons of force.

• The ball travels southward with 25 newtons of force.

Which statement best describes the amount of work performed for the three activities? Work = force x distance

• Activity 3 required more work than Activity 1, but Activity 3 did not require more work than Activity 2.

• Activity 1 required the same amount of work as Activity 3.

• Activity 2 required the most work.

• Activity 1 was the only activity that required work.

Two crates are dropped from a plane, one with a mass of 100 kg and the other with a mass of 75 kg. How would the force of impact compare between the two crates?

• The crate with the smaller mass will have a larger force of impact.

• The crate with the larger mass will have a larger force of impact.

• The crates will have the same force of impact.

• There is not enough information to determine which would have the greater impact force.
