A car accelerates from 10 m/s to 30 m/s in 5 s.
A second car accelerates from 20 m/s to 40 m/s in 5 s.
Which car has the greater acceleration?
Same acceleration
Both change velocity by 20 m/s in 5 s.
Acceleration = 4 m/s².

Which element would be the most reactive?
Z
Three students are analysing a distance-time graph.
The graph is a straight diagonal line.
Who is correct?
Student B.
A woman does not have a recessive disorder, but her child does.
What must be true about the mother?
She must be a carrier (heterozygous)
Three forces act on a trolley:
Mass = 10 kg
Calculate the acceleration.
Net force = 40 + 25 − 15
Net force = 50 N
a = F/m
a = 50/10
a = 5 m/s²
A trolley is moving to the right at a constant velocity.
Three students claim:
Student A: "There must be a force acting to the right."
Student B: "The net force is zero."
Student C: "The trolley must be accelerating."
Who is correct?
Student B
