Formula
This is the formula that defines Newtons 2nd Law?
F=ma
This is the unit of measurement for force.
Newton
What is the force required to accelerate at 1,000 kg car at 3 m/s^2?
3,000 N
An object with a mass of 5 kg experiences a net force or 20 N. What is the acceleration of the object?
4 m/s^2
A measure of an object's inertia, tells us the amount of "stuff" is in an object.
Mass
What is the force of a 10 kg object is accelerating at 2 m/s^2?
20 N
6 kg
Which term describes the rate of change of velocity?
Acceleration
What is the acceleration of a 9 kg pumpkin if you apply a net force of 9 N?
1 m/s^2
If you double the net force of an object while keeping its mass constant, what will happen to its acceleration?
Acceleration will double.
Net force
What is the mass of an object that accelerates at 5 m/s^2 when a 20 N force is applied?
A 10 kg bowling ball is pushed with a net force of 30 N. Its acceleration is 3 m/s^2. What happens to the acceleration of a 2 kg soccer ball is pushed with the same 30 N of force.
15 m/s^2
What type of force is required to change an object's velocity?
A 10 kg cart is pulled to the left with 20 N of force, while a 6 N frictional force resists its motion. What is the acceleration of the cart?
1.4 m/s^2 (to the left)
