Question 11

A student pushes the cart with a force of 60 N across the floor. Once the cart starts moving, a frictional force of 20 N acts upon it. If a student continues to push the cart with a force of 60 N, what will happen to the cart?

Accepted Answer

The cart will move forward at an increased speed.

Answer

The cart will stop moving forward.

Answer

The cart will move forward at a steady speed.

Answer

The cart will move forward at a decreased speed.

Question 12

Which is an example of Newton's Third Law?

Accepted Answer

ALL of these

Answer

You jump on a trampoline, and it springs you back into the air.

Answer

A man pushes down on a cane, and the cane pushes back on him.

Answer

A person jumps from a boat; the person moves to the left and the boat to the right.
