A box is on the ground and given a brief push, the force of the push is greater than the frictional forces. What happens immediately after the push?

What is the box will speed up because of the difference in magnitude of the two forces

A sling shot applies force to three objects with masses of 10 grams (Ping Pong Ball), 50 grams(baseball), and 500 grams(bowling ball). 

What can be said about the forces acting as the slingshot hits the objects? Hint: Think about Newton's third law and motion!

What is the sling shot applied a force to each object but each object moved differently because of its mass.

A boy rides a roller coaster from the top of a big drop to the bottom. Which statement describe how energy changes from the top to the bottom?

What is the potential energy is transformed (converted) to kinetic energy.

500

500

What force allowed Ms. Green to throw a tennis ball up in the air, make it pause mid air, and return to her?

What is gravity
500

Unless acted on by a force objects in ________ tend to stay in _______, and objects in _____ tend to stay in _____.

What is motion, motion, rest, rest

500

Give me a real-life example of each of Newton's Laws of Motion 

Newton's First Law (Law of Inertia)

An object at rest stays at rest, and an object in motion stays in motion unless acted upon by an external force.

  • Example: A soccer ball won’t move until someone kicks it. Once kicked, it keeps rolling until friction or another player stops it.

Newton's Second Law (F = ma)

The force acting on an object is equal to its mass times its acceleration.

  • Example: It’s easier to push an empty shopping cart than a full one because the full cart has more mass, requiring more force to accelerate.

Newton's Third Law

For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.

  • Example: When you jump off a small boat onto a dock, the boat moves backward because your push against it causes an equal and opposite reaction.

Name three different objects in the room with potential energy, then order them from most potential energy to least.

What is the clock, a book on a desk, and a pencil on the floor.
