• the opposite direction as the object's motion

• any direction

Sandra pushed a wooden block and it slid across the floor. The wooden block gradually slowed down and stopped after moving 10 meters.

Why did the block stop moving?

• The floor exerted a force that is opposite to the direction of the block’s motion.

• The block ran out of force.

• The floor absorbs force from the block.

• All objects stop moving because their natural state is to be still.

Three boats were moving across the surface of a lake. The gray and pink boats are a greater mass than the orange boat. Each boat was bumped by another boat. Which boat experienced the strongest force when hit? How do you know?

• The gray and pink boats because they are more massive, and all boats changed velocity by same amount.

• The pink boat - it's as massive as the gray boat and has the highest ending speed.

• All three - they all changed speed by the same amount.

• The gray boat - it takes more force to slow down an object than it takes to make it go faster.
