Both boats have same mass, blue boat speeds up from 2 km/h to 5km/h (Speed up by 3km/h). Red boat slows down from 10km/h to 5km/h (Slow down by 5 km/h).  Which had greater force? 

Red boat had a greater force because it had a greater change in velocity.

An empty shopping cart and a full shopping cart both increase speed by 2m/s. Which one experienced the greater force.

The full cart because it has more mass. 

300

To stop an object, what direction and strength of force is needed? 

Same strength force in the opposite direction.

There is a collision between a bug and a car. The bug experiences a greater change in velocity because...

it has a much smaller mass

500
If a large semi truck and and a smart car collide, which will experience a greater change in velocity? 

The smart car because a lesser mass needs less force to have a greater change in velocity.
