A person throws a marble straight up into the air, releasing it a short height above the ground and catching it at that same height. If air resistance is negligible, which of the following graphs of position y versus time t is correct for the motion of the marble as it goes up and then comes down?

a)

b)

c)

d)

2.

Area under the curve of a Force v Time graph

a)

Impulse

b)

Work

c)

Spring Constant

3.

An object is coming to rest. Does increasing the stop time lower the amount of force experienced?

a)

Yes, Δp = Ft\Delta p\ =\ F\cdot t so higher time must equal lower force for same impulse

b)

No, airbags work by causing a counter force on the body. This lowers the Net force experienced by adding a force in the negative direction.

4.

A ball is thrown up into the air, which graph best matches its velocity versus time.

a)

b)

c)

d)

5.
"For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction."
a)
Newton's 1st Law
b)
Newton's 2nd Law
c)

Newton's 4th Law
6.
The tendency of an object to resist changes in its motion is...
a)
inertia
b)
force
c)
acceleration
d)

7.

The picture is an example of Newton's...

a)

1st Law

b)

2nd Law

c)

3rd Law

8.

Shown in a top view are six uniform rods that vary in mass M and Length L. Also shown are circles representing vertical axis around which the rods are going to be rotated in a horizontal plane and arrows representing forces acting to rotate the rods. The forces change direction in order to always act perpendicular to the rods. Rank these rods, from greatest to least, on the magnitude of the their angular acceleration. The moment of inertia formula for rod about end I = (1/3)ML^2.

a)

F,B,D,E,A,C

b)

E,D,B,F,C,A

c)

A,E,C,D,B,F

d)

C,E,A=D,B,F

e)

C,A,E,D,B,F

11.

Which of the following statements is true about the image above?

a)

The accelerations of the blocks will vary according to their mass

b)

The net force acting on each block is the same

c)

The blocks will experience the same acceleration

d)

The 3m box will eat the 2m and the m boxes

15.

Two blocks of masses 1.0 kg and 2.0 kg, respectively, are pushed by a constant applied force F across a horizontal frictionless table with constant acceleration such that the blocks remain in contact with each other, as shown above. The 1.0 kg block pushes the 2.0 kg block with a force of 2.0 N. The acceleration of the two blocks is ​​​ (a)   .
