2- Becky is trying to push a box across the
floor. What type of friction is making it hard
for her to start moving the box?A. Heat
frictionB. Static FrictionC. Rolling
FrictionD. Sliding Friction
3- B. Static Friction This is the friction that
makes it difficult when you start moving
something (for example, a car or a box!)
4Which tool can you use to measure force?
- Ruler
- Spring scale
- Pan balance
- Electronic Scale
5- B. A spring scale We used this to measure the
force of the wooden ball at the beginning of this
unit, as well as to measure the force of the
washers in the lab last week!
6Four students roll bowling balls across four
surfaces with the same amount of force. Which
ball will most likely travel the furthest?
- The ball rolling on carpet
- The ball rolling on a sandy path
- The ball rolling on grass
- The ball rolling on tile floor
7- D. The ball rolling on tile floor This surface
is the smoothest, therefore creating the least
friction.
8Earths gravitational force will have the
greatest affect on a man if
- He is in an airplane.
- He is standing at sea-level.
- He is on top of Mount Everest.
- He is walking on the moon.
9- B. He is standing at sea level The closer a
person is to the center of the earth, the
stronger the gravitational force will be on him.
10A baseball player hits the ball with his bat.
Which of the following statements is true about
the force of the baseball hitting the bat?
- The ball hits the bat with an opposite but lesser
force. - The ball hits the bat with an opposite and equal
force. - The ball hits the bat with an opposite and
greater force. - The ball hits the bat with an opposite and double
force.
11- B. The ball hits the bat with an opposite and
equal force according to Newtons 3rd Law!
12What is the difference between speed and velocity?
- Speed does not include a time measurement.
- Velocity is the speed of an object measured in 1
hour. - Velocity does not include a time measurement.
- Velocity is the speed of an object in a
particular direction.
13- D. Velocity is the speed in a particular
direction. Remember our discussion about going
to Rochester and then coming home? My velocity
changes because the direction I am traveling in
changes.
14Imagine that you are pushing on a 15 kilogram box
with 5-N force. Which choice below calculates
the acceleration of the box?
- 5 N/15 kg
- 15 kg/5 N
- 5 N 15 kg
- 15 kg X 5 N
15- A. 5 N/15 kg The formula for finding
acceleration is - acceleration force mass
16Look at the graph on the overhead. What is
happening between 3 and 7 seconds?
- Instantaneous speed
- Changing acceleration
- Constant acceleration
- Constant speed
17- Changing acceleration
- The speed is changing, and therefore, the
acceleration is changing.
18In which of the following would you expect to see
no movement?
- A 5-N force pulling up and a 5-N force pushing
down. - A 2-N force pulling up and a 4-N force pushing
down. - A 7-N force pushing to the left and a 4-N force
pushing to the right. - A 10N force pushing to the left and a 1-N force
pushing to the right.
19- A. A 5 N force pulling up and a 5 N force
pulling down. These forces are balanced and that
means that the object will not move.
20According to Newtons Second Law of Motion, which
object will have the greatest acceleration if all
are thrown with the same amount of force?
- Ping pong ball
- Tennis ball
- Bowling ball
- Softball
21- A ping pong ball.
- Newtons Second Law says that the less mass
something has, the greater the acceleration will
be.
22What causes the change in daily tides?
- The Suns gravitational pull on Earth
- Mercurys gravitational pull on Earth
- The Moons gravitational pull on Earth
- Earths gravitational pull on itself
23- C. The moons gravitational pull on the earth.
This was something we read about in a reading
assignment during this unit!
24What causes a rock sitting on the ground to
remain in the same place unless a force acts on
it?
- Friction
- Inertia
- Momentum
- Unbalanced forces
25- Inertia
- Inertia is the tendency for an object to remain
still if it is still or remain in motion if it is
in motion. The more mass something has, the
greater its inertia is!
26A runner travels 4 kilometers in 30 minutes.
What is the speed of the runner?
- 1 km/h
- 6 km/h
- 8 km/h
- 80 km/h
27- 8 km/hour
- The runner can travel 4 km in a half an hour.
There are two half hours in a whole hour, meaning
the runner can travel twice as far or 8 km in
that hour.
28What force keeps the Moon from shooting straight
out inter outer space?
- The gravitational pull of the Sun.
- The massive amount of friction in space
- The gravitational pull of Earth
- The tiny amount of friction in space
29- The gravitational pull of the Earth.
- This keeps the moon from floating away the same
way it keeps us from floating away.
30A pool player hits a ball and this ball hits
another one into the corner pocket. What
happened?
- When the balls collided both balls gained
momentum. - The first ball slowed because it gained momentum
from the cue stick. - The first ball slowed because it gave some of its
momentum to the second ball. - When the balls collided both balls lost momentum.
31- C. The first ball slowed because it gave some of
its momentum to the second ball. The momentum
was in a sense transferred to the second ball.
32Short Answer Why can you feel and see the
effect of the Earths gravitational pull on you,
but you cannot feel or see the effect of your
teachers gravitational pull on you?
33- You can feel the gravitational pull of the Earth
because it is huge! - However, your teacher is not big enough to feel
her gravitational pull.
34Short Answer Compare how balanced and
unbalanced forces affect an object at rest.
(What will a balanced force do to the object and
what will an unbalanced force to do the object?)
35- Unbalanced forces cause an object to move in the
direction of the greater force. - Balanced forces cause an object to stay at rest.
36Fill in the blanks in the statement below.
- Newtons First Law of Motion states that an
object at rest remains at _________ and an object
in motion remains in motion until acted on by an
unbalanced ________.
37- Newtons First Law of Motion states that an
object at rest remains at rest and an object in
motion remains in motion until acted on by an
unbalanced force.
38Fill in the blanks in the statement below.
- Newtons Second Law states that acceleration of
an object depends on the ___________ of an object
and the amount of ___________ applied to the
object.
39- Newtons Second Law states that acceleration of
an object depends on the mass of an object and
the amount of force applied to the object.
40Fill in the blanks in the statement below.
- Newtons Third Law states that when a force is
applied to an object, the object exerts an equal
force in the __________ direction.
41- Newtons Third Law states that when a force is
applied to an object, the object exerts an equal
force in the opposite direction.
42Answer both parts of this question
- What is the formula for speed?
- What is the speed of a bus going 36 meters in 4
minutes? Label this correctly!
43- What is the formula for speed?
- Speed Distance/Time
- What is the speed of a bus going 36 meters in 4
minutes? Label this correctly! - 36 meters/4 minutes 9 meters/minute
44Answer both parts of the following question
- Which is stronger sliding friction or rolling
friction? - How do you know?
45- Which is stronger sliding friction or rolling
friction? - Sliding Friction
- How do you know?
- In the lab we did with the car, when we turned it
upside down and slid it, it slowed the car down.
