Which of the following must be true if an object is accelerating?

a)

It is going really fast.

b)

It is moving away from the frame of reference point.

2.

A student drops a ball onto the floor and it bounces. Which of the following statements about the interaction between the ball and the floor is correct?

a)

The floor applies the same amount of force to the ball that the ball applies to the floor, which causes the ball to bounce.

b)

The floor applies a larger amount of force to the ball than the ball applies to the floor, which causes the ball to bounce.

c)

The floor applies a larger amount of force to the ball than the ball applies to the floor because it is a part of the Earth.

d)

The ball applies a larger amount of force to the floor than the floor applies to the ball because the ball bounces.

3.

Sami wants to build the fastest racing bike possible. What is one way he can change the bike, so she has a better chance of winning the race?

a)

reduce the mass of the bike so it accelerates more quickly

b)

put on smoother tires to eliminate friction with the race track

c)

increase the mass of the bike to increase its gravitational field

d)

replace metal parts with plastic to decreases its magnetic field

4.

The force diagram for an object that is being dragged across the floor is shown to the right. The object is experiencing an acceleration of 2 m/s2 as it moves under the influence of the forces shown. Use the diagram to determine the force of friction acting on the object.

a)

The force of friction is 30 newtons.

b)

The force of friction is 50 newtons.

c)

The force of friction is 20 newtons.

d)

The force of friction is 150 newtons.

5.

17.

If object 1 is lighter than object 2 and they are both being pushed by THE SAME amount of force, which of the two will accelerate the most?

a)

The lighter (object 1) because the object's inertia in comparison to the heavier is easier to overcome hence, making object 1 speed up more than object 2.

b)

The heavier (object 2) because the more the inertia the more the object will accelerate

c)

They don't accelerate because they travel at the same rate

d)

They both have the same acceleration because the same amount of force is being exerted on the objects.
