Chose all that apply:
For the relationship
F=m⋅a
Force is directly proportional to acceleration
Force is inversely proportional to acceleration
Mass is directly proportional to acceleration
Mass is inversely proportional to acceleration
If you push a small (low mass) car and a large (high mass) truck with the exact same amount of force, how would their accelerations compare?
The low mass car would have a greater acceleration.
The high mass truck would have a greater acceleration.
There would be no difference in their accelerations.
When you are pushing that high mass truck, two of your friends see you and help you push. How does the acceleration compare between you pushing alone versus with your friends?
The more people pushing (more force), the greater the acceleration will be.
More people pushing means that the acceleration will be less.
There will be no difference in the acceleration.
A ball has an acceleration of 8 m/s2. If the force is tripled, the ball's new acceleration will be:
24 m/s2
11 m/s2
unchanged
2.67 m/s2
An object has an acceleration of 12 m/s2. If the applied force is reduced by a factor of 4, the new acceleration is:
3 m/ss
8 m/s2
48 m/s2
unchanged.
A sled is moving with an acceleration of 15 m/s2. If the mass is increased by a factor of 2, the new acceleration will be:
7.5 m/s2
30 m/s2
17 m/s2
unchanged
A ball is moving with an acceleration of 24 m/s2. If the mass is reduced by a factor of 5, the new acceleration will be:
120 m/s2
2.67 m/s2
19 m/s2
unchanged
An object is moving with an acceleration of 8 m/s2. If the force is reduced by a factor of 2 and the mass is reduced by a factor of 3, the new acceleration will be:
12 m/s2
1.33 m/s2
48 m/s2
unchanged
An object is moving with an acceleration of 6 m/s2. If the force is doubled and the mass is cut by one-third, the new acceleration will be:
4 m/s2
1 m/s2
36 m/s2
unchanged
An object is moving with an acceleration of 10 m/s2. If the force is tripled and the mass is increased by a factor of 5, the new acceleration will be:
6 m/s2
150 m/s2
0.67 m/s2
unchanged
