What is the formula to find the magnitude of a resultant vector when given its components?

• The sum of the components

• The square root of the sum of the squares of the components

Which of the following best describes Newton's first law of motion?

• An object will remain at rest or in uniform motion unless acted upon by a net force.

• The acceleration of an object is directly proportional to the net force acting on it.

• The force on an object is equal to its mass times its acceleration.

• For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.

What is the main difference between static and kinetic friction?

• Static friction occurs when surfaces are sliding past each other, while kinetic friction occurs when they are not.

• Static friction is usually less than kinetic friction.

• Static friction prevents motion, while kinetic friction opposes motion once it has started.

• Kinetic friction is always greater than static friction.

Which of the following statements is true about gravitational potential energy?

• It is equal to the kinetic energy at all times.

• It increases as the height of the object increases.

• It is independent of the object's height.

• It is highest when an object is at its lowest point.
