If two people are on opposite sides playing tug of war and exerting the same force, what side will win?

Neither, because the same force is applied to both sides of the rope.

Which sections are balanced?

Which sections are unbalanced?

Balanced: section 1 and section 3

Does a Balanced Force cause an object to move?

No, it stays stationary.

400

A train is moving at 90 km/h. How far does it travel in 2.5 hours

225 kilometers

400

An object has a mass of 10 kg and is accelerating at 2.5 m/s². What is the net force acting on it?

25 N
(F = ma → 10 × 2.5 = 25 N)

What is an Balanced Force?

Provide a example in the classroom?

When forces are balanced they cancel each other out, resulting in no change in motion.

500

 A cheetah runs 1,500 meters in 2.5 minutes.
What is its speed in meters per second?

10 meters per second
(2.5 minutes = 150 seconds → 1,500 ÷ 150 = 10 m/s)

500

A force moves a 4 kg object from rest to a speed of 16 m/s in 4 minutes. What is the net force?

What is 0.27 N?
→ 4 minutes = 240 seconds
→ Acceleration = (16 m/s - 0 m/s) ÷ 240 s = 0.0667 m/s²
→ F = ma → 4 kg × 0.0667 ≈ 0.27 N

500

An object accelerates at 2 m/s² when a force of 30 N is applied.
What is the mass of the object?

15 kilograms
