If a nonzero, unbalanced force is acting on an object, then the object is definitely

Moving with a constant velocity

The acceleration of the truck is 1/10 that of the car

The truck travels 1/10 the distance of the car.

the car increases speed but does not change direction

the car maintains its speed but changes direction

In an action-reaction pair, the

action force and the reaction force act on two different objects

action force and the reaction force are equal in magnitude and act in the same direction

action force and the reaction force are contact forces only

A batter strikes a baseball with a bat. Identify an action-reaction pair and describe the forces exerted by each.

The batter exerts a force on the bat; the bat exerts a force on the batter

The batter exerts a force on the bat; the ball exerts a force on the bat

The bat exerts a force on the batter; the bat exerts a force on the ball

The ball exerts a force on the bat; the bat exerts a force on the batter

acts perpendicular to the surface

A child is using the fire pole at the park. As she slides faster and faster down the pole she squeezes tighter and tighter. What is most certainly happening when the force of friction caused by her hands equals her weight?

She continues to slide, but at a constant speed

The acceleration due to gravity

has a magnitude of 9.81 m/s 2 at Earth's surface

As an object accelerates in its fall toward Earth

The upward acceleration of Earth is negligible because of its large mass

The object does not exert a force on Earth

The object exerts a downward force on Earth

Newton's third law does not apply

What is the effect of a balanced force on an object's motion?

It does not change the object's motion

It causes the object to accelerate

It causes the object to decelerate

It changes the object's direction

What is the relationship between mass and inertia?

They are inversely proportional

You stand on a bathroom scale in the hallway outside an elevator and the scale reads 610 N. Taking the scale into the elevator and standing on it, you observe that at one point, the scale read 730 N. What is happening at that moment?

The elevator is accelerating upward

The elevator is accelerating downward

The elevator is moving at a constant velocity

What can the effect of an unbalanced force on an object's motion be? (check all that apply)

It could cause the object to accelerate

It could cause the object to decelerate

It could change the object's direction

It could not change the object's motion

What happens to the acceleration of an object if the force acting on it is doubled?

The acceleration remains the same

For an object in contact with a given surface, the kinetic friction acting on the object

is partially dependent on the qualities of the two surfaces in contact

is usually more than static friction

is independent of the normal force

acts perpendicular to the surface

A lubricant decreases kinetic friction between surfaces. The most likely reason it does this is because the lubricant

changes the composition and qualities of the surfaces in contact

produces greater adhesion between the two surfaces

What is the effect of friction on an object's motion?

It causes the object to decelerate

It causes the object to accelerate

It changes the object's direction

It does not change the object's motion

What is the relationship between force and acceleration according to Newton's second law of motion?

They are inversely proportional

What is the effect of increasing the mass of an object while keeping the force constant?

The acceleration of the object decreases

The acceleration of the object increases

The acceleration of the object remains the same

What is the relationship between the net force acting on an object and its acceleration?

They are inversely proportional

What happens to the motion of an object when the net force acting on it is zero?

The object continues to move with a constant velocity

What is the effect of decreasing the mass of an object while keeping the force constant?

The acceleration of the object increases

The acceleration of the object decreases

The acceleration of the object remains the same

What is the relationship between the net force acting on an object and its mass?

They are inversely proportional

What happens to the motion of an object when the net force acting on it is nonzero?

The object continues to move with a constant velocity
