1.

Which boat experienced the strongest force when hit?

a)

The gray and pink boats experienced the strongest force because they are both more massive than the orange boat, and they all changed speed by the same amount.

b)

The pink boat experienced the strongest force because it is as massive as the gray boat and has the highest ending speed.

c)

All three boats experienced the same force because they changed speed by the same amount.

d)

The orange boat experienced the strongest force because it has the least mass.

2.

In which crash did the puck experience a stronger force?

a)

The puck did not experience a force; only the paddles experienced a force in the crashes.

b)

Crash 2; the force on the purple paddle was stronger in this crash, so the force on the puck was also stronger.

c)

The diagram doesn’t tell you anything about the force on the puck. It only gives information about the force on the paddles.

d)

The puck experienced the same force in both crashes. The paddles

3.

Which soccer ball(s) experienced the strongest force when it was kicked? How do you know?

a)

The purple soccer ball because it has the fastest ending speed.

b)

The blue soccer ball because it takes a stronger force to slow something down than to speed something up.

c)

The blue soccer ball because it changed speed the most.

d)

The purple and yellow soccer balls because they gained force, while the blue soccer ball lost force.

4.

Which skier experienced the strongest force when bumped?

a)

All three skiers experienced the same force because they changed speed the same amount.

b)

The purple skier; he is more massive and has the fastest ending speed.

c)

The yellow skier; it takes a stronger force to slow down a more massive object than to speed it up.

d)

The yellow and purple skiers; they have more mass than the red skier, but changed speed by the same amount.

5.

In which crash did the green test car experience a stronger force? How do you know?

a)

Crash 1; the force on the garbage truck was stronger in this crash, so the force on the green test car was also stronger.

b)

There is no force on the green car. In each crash, only the truck experienced a force.

c)

It was the same from both crashes. The trucks changed speed by the same amount in both crashes, so the force on the test car was the same both times.

d)

Crash 2; the pickup truck had less mass, so the force on the green test car was stronger.

6.

In which crash did the rubber duck experience a stronger force? How do you know?

a)

There is no force on the rubber duck. Only the toy boats experienced a force in those crashes.

b)

The diagram doesn’t tell you anything about the force on the rubber duck. It only gives information about the force on the toy boats.

c)

The blue and white golf balls; they have more mass than the yellow golf ball, but changed speed by the same amount.

d)

The white golf ball; it takes a stronger force to slow down a more massive object than to speed it up.

7.

Which skateboard(s) experienced the strongest force when bumped? How do you know?

a)

The green skateboard experienced the strongest force because it changed speed the most.

b)

The green skateboard experienced the strongest force because it takes a stronger force to slow something down than it takes to speed something up.

c)

The red and brown skateboards experienced the same strength force because they both gained force, but the green skateboard lost force.

d)

The red skateboard experienced the strongest force because it has the fastest ending speed.

8.

In which crash does the satellite experience a stronger force? How do you know?

a)

It was the same force in both crashes; the asteroid changed speed by the same amount in each crash, so the force on the satellite was the same each time.

b)

Crash 1; the force exerted by the black asteroid would have been stronger in this crash, so the force on the satellite would also have been stronger.

c)

Crash 2; the gray asteroid had less mass, so it exerted a stronger force.

d)

The force was stronger in Crash 2 because the gray asteroid moved faster.

9.

What is Alton practicing at the ice rink?

a)

Ice skating

b)

Curling

c)

Figure skating

d)

Ice hockey

10.

c)

To assess artistic skills

d)

12.

What is the effect of mass on the motion of the hockey puck in the crashes?

a)

More mass causes less change in motion

b)

Less mass causes more change in motion

c)

More mass causes greater change in motion

d)

Mass has no effect on motion

14.

What is the relationship between mass and speed in the context of the crashes?

a)

More mass and more speed

b)

Less mass and more speed

c)

More mass and less speed

d)

Mass and speed are unrelated
