In this picture, the dot shows where a toy car is at certain times. Which statement correctly describes the motion of the toy car? ( HINT : using a ruler shows distance, a form of measurement. The time in seconds is shown below. To describe the motion means to find the speed )

The car is moving at a constant speed over time

The car is decreasing its speed over time

The car is increasing its speed over time

The car has not moved from the start

You designed a second experiment to test how either force or mass (weight) can change the motion of a cart. READ THE HINTS IN PICTURE 2 BEFORE ANSWERING THE QUESTION BELOW Consider which cart would move at a speed of 5m/1s in picture 2. What would be the correct reasoning to support your choice?

Cart 1 has the most amount of force applied

Cart 1 has least amount of weight on it

Cart 2 has the least amount of weight on it

Cart 2 has the most amount of force applied

In class, we did an online activity that dealt with forces in action. Using the picture, review and look at the table to answer the following question. Why does the truck travel less farther with a parachute?

There is more air resistance (air force)

There is more friction on the track

The truck is at lower slope or ramp

The truck has more weight on it

In class, we did an online activity that dealt with forces in action. Using the picture, review and look at the table to answer the following question. Why does the truck travel further with weights?

There is less friction on the track

The truck is at higher slope or ramp

There is less air resistance (air force)

Which one shows what can happen to the motion of an object when only one force is acting on the object?

the object can change direction, can speed up, or can slow down

the object can can speed up, can slow down, or sit at rest

The high school sprinter is faster with a speed of 10 meters/second

The Black Mamba snake is faster at 27 meters/second

Alex and Eric both drop wood blocks with the same masses and shapes from the same heights. Alex has a parachute attached to his block which makes it fall slower. Why does Eric's block fall faster?

There is less air friction on Eric's block.

The pull of gravity is greater on Eric's block than on Alex's block.

The mass of Eric's block is greater.

The density of Eric's block is different from Alex's block.

How are balanced forces different than unbalanced forces?

Balanced forces are equal in size and are opposite in direction

Balanced forces cause objects to move

Balanced forces are not equal and size and move in one direction

Balanced forces are equal in size and move in one direction

What two forces caused the sled to slide to a stop at different distances based on the types of surfaces?

The amount of push and friction

The amount of gravity and inertia

The amount of gravity and momentum

The amount of weight and car type

A student puts a penny, a box of crayons, and a bag filled with books on a table. Which statement describes the gravitational force acting on the objects?

All the objects experience the same amount of gravitational force.

The penny experiences the least amount of gravitational force.

The box of crayons experiences the greatest amount of gravitational force.

The bag filled with books experiences the least amount of gravitational force.

Students perform two experiments using toy cars. For each experiment, the students measure the following: 1) the mass of the toy cars 2) the amount of force applied to the cars 3) the speed of the cars after 4 seconds --------------------------------------------- Which numbers should go into the empty box in experiment 1 and experiment 2 to find the final speed (m/s)? --------------------------------------------- [HINT: In Experiment 1, they kept the amount mass the same for both trials, but doubled the amount of force in trial 2] * Think : How would this affect the speed of the car? Would it speed up or slow down in trial 1? ---------------------------------------------- [HINT: In Experiment 2, the amount of mass is doubled in trial 2, but kept the same amount of force for both] * Think : How would this affect the speed of the car? Would it speed up or slow down in trial 2?

Experiment 1: 8 m/s Experiment 2: 8 m/s

Experiment 1: 8 m/s Experiment 2: 32 m/s

Experiment 1: 16 m/s Experiment 2: 32 m/s

Experiment 1: 32 m/s Experiment 2: 8 m/s
