What is the definition of, force?

is a push or pull upon an object resulting from the object's interaction with another object. Whenever there is an interaction between two objects, there is a force upon each of the objects. When the interaction ceases, the two objects no longer experience the force. Forces only exist as a result of an interaction.

A 1 kg ball is rolling at 4 m/s on a table that is 5m tall. How much energy does the ball have? 

KE = 1/2*m*v^2 = 1/2*(1kg)*(4m/s)^2 = 8J; 


PE = m*g*h = 1kg * 10 m/s/s * 5m = 50J 


Total Energy = KE + PE = 8J + 50J = 58J

Which of the following is FALSE? (a) Weight is a measure of the force of gravity (b) Mass and weight measure the same thing (c) Mass is a measure of the amount of matter in an object (d) A person's weight would be different on the moon

(b) Mass and weight measure the same thing NOT TRUE! Mass is a measure of the amount of matter in an object; weight is the measure of the force of gravity on an object.
