If an object takes 10s to travel 100m, calculate its speed.
10m/s
State Newton's 1st law of motion.
An object will remain in constant motion until acted apon by an external, unbalanced force.
Newton's second law of motion can be expressed as an equation. What is it?
F = ma or F = mg
State Newton's third law of motion.
For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.
Calculate the force applied on a 500g tennis ball to accelerate it to 4 m/s2.
2N
If an object travels around a 400m track, calculate its displacement.
0m
Define the term 'inertia'.
A tendancy for an object to do nothing or remain unchanged.
Bowling ball
If a tennis ball is slammed into the ground with a force of 32N, calculate the reaction force.
32N
If an object has an initial velocity of 0m/s and accelerates to 20m/s in 10 seconds, calculate its total acceleration.
2 m/s2
If an object has a velocity of 5 m/s2 for 32 seconds, calculate its displacement.
160m
If an object has a small mass, what could be said about its inertia?
The smaller the mass of an object, the less inertia it would have.
A man with a mass of 70kg travels to Mars, where the gravitational force acting on his body is 3.2 m/s2. Calculate his weight force.
224N
A car is travelling at a constant velocity and has a total thrust force of 2000N. Calculate the drag force.
2000N - car is travelling at a constant velocity.
Calculate the mass of a person if the gravitational force is 9.8 m/s2 and the weight force is 980N.
100 kg
If a boat is travelling at 13 m/s, what does this equate to in km/h?
46.8 km/h
As a car is accelerating in a given direction, what is the opposing force that is acting on the object that would inevitably slow it down?
Why are crumple zones important in cars?
Crumple zones increase the amount of time a car decelerates. The greater the amount of time, the less force acting on the body.
Calculate the net force of an object that has a force of 320N to the right and 180N to the left.
140N
7.25 m/s2 or -7.25 m/s2
If a student walked 150m west, then 200m north to school, what is his total displacement?
250m NW
True or false: An object's inertia is dependent on its mass, not the force acting on it.
False - it is dependent on both force and mass.
4 m/s2
True or false: As an object accelerates, the braking force is greater than the thrust force.
What was the margin from the Collingwood vs Adelaide game last night?
24 points
