What force opposes motion between sliding surfaces?
Friction Force
True of false: Something can accelerate without a net force present.

If Tyreek Hill runs 40 meters in 4.3 seconds, what is his speed?
9.3 m/s
A projectile has acceleration in what direction and with what magnitude?
9.8 m/s^2 downward
Which object has more inertia: a pencil or an airplane?

If you double the net force and double the mass, what happens to acceleration?
Stays the same
If Lebron James' weight is 1000 N, by how much does he pull on the Earth?
1000 N
Define a scalar quantity.
A quantity that is solely defined by its magnitude.
If Jalen Hurts throws a football at a 20 degree angle and it goes 30 yards, at what angle would he need to throw the football for it to go the same distance (assuming he applies the same force and the football has no lift)?
70 degrees

If Bob Jr. pushes a 5 kg cart with 10 N to the left and Bob Sr. pushes with 20 N to the right, what is the magnitude and direction of the acceleration?
2 m/s^2 to the right
What caused the bottle rocket to go up in the demonstration last week.
Water pushed down by air pressure pushed back up.
Slope on a velocity-time graph determines what?
Acceleration
For an object in circular motion (like the moon around the Earth), what direction do the velocity and acceleration vectors point?
Velocity: Along the path (tangent)
Acceleration: Toward the center of the circle (centripetal)
True of false: The normal force always pushes up
False
What is the net force on a 2000 kg car moving at 30 m/s in a straight line?
0 N
In our lab from last week, name one interaction pair.
Cart pushing on ramp and the normal force on cart; Tension on cart/weight and tension string; Earth's gravity pulling on cart (or weight) and the cart's (or weight's) gravity pulling on the Earth.
