100

The mass of an object is 3kg, and it is accelerating at 4 m/s^2.  What is the objects net force?

12 N

100

Balanced or unbalanced?  To which direction?

Unbalanced to the right. 

100

Is this speed, velocity, or acceleration?  How do you know?

Speed, because...

100

Is this an example of potential or kinetic energy and how do you know? A diver standing on the diving board.

This is potential energy because the diver is not moving.
200

What is Newton's first law of motion?

Law of Inertia

200

The mass of an object is 5 g and has a net force of 500 Newtons.  What is the objects acceleration in meters per second squared? 

100 metes per second squared.

200

Balanced or unbalanced?  To which direction and by how many Newtons?

Unbalanced force, 15 Newtons to the right.

200

Is this speed, velocity or acceleration and how do you know? A care moving west at 35 miles per hour.  

Velocity.  Speed + direction.

200

Is this an example of potential or kinetic energy and how do you know?

Potential energy because the boulder is not moving. 

300

What is Newton's second law of motion?

F=ma

300

If you are given the mass of an object and the net force of an object, how do you calculate the acceleration of that object? 

Divide net force by mass.

300

Balanced or unbalanced, to which direction and by how many Newtons?

Unbalanced 5 Newtons to the right.
300

Is this an example of speed, velocity, or acceleration and how do you know? An airplane ascends 300 ft in altitude while maintaining the same are speed towards the west coast.   

Acceleration, because of the change in direction (climbing in altitude).

300

Where does the biker have the highest kinetic energy?  

At the bottom of the hill on the right side.  

400

A skateboarder is sent into the air after his skateboard is stopped by a rock.  Which of Newton's laws of motion best explains what happened?

Newton's first law, the law of inertia.

400

The force acting on an object is 1,200 N, and it has an acceleration of 200 m/s^2.  Calculate the mass of this object in kg.

6 kg

400

Balanced or unbalanced, by how many Newtons and to which direction?

Balanced force.

400

Is this an example of speed, velocity, or acceleration and how do you know?  As a car comes to a stop sign, it begins to slow down from 35 mph. 

Acceleration because of the change in velocity.  

400

At which point does this roller coaster have the highest potential energy. How do you know?

At point A, because it is not moving and at the highest point of elevation.

500

When a Eddie tried jumping off of a kayak, the kayak went backwards and Eddie fell into the water.  Which of Newton's laws best explains what happened?

Newton's 3rd law, action/reaction.

500

The net force of an object is 900 N, and it has an acceleration for 12 m/s^2.  What is the mass in grams of this object? 

75 grams.

500

Balanced or unbalanced, to which direction and by how many Newtons?

Unbalanced to the left, by 2 Newtons. 

500
Is this an example of speed, velocity or acceleration? Total distance divided by total time.  

Speed.  

500

At which point on the roller coaster ride will the roller coaster experience the highest kinetic energy?  How do you know?

At point B, because it is at the bottom of the ride after dropping from the highest elevation at point A.
