Question
Check the boxes beside the statements that are TRUE, regarding force and motion.
a.) If two different objects are under the influence of equal forces, they will have equal accelerations.
b.) If an object at rest remains at rest, the net force acting on it must be zero.
c.) If an object has a constant speed, the net force acting on it must be zero.
d.) If an object has a constant velocity, the net force acting on it must be zero.
e.) If there is a net force acting on an object, the object's velocity will change.
f.) To keep an object mvoing at a constant velocity, a small NET force is required to prevent it from slowing down.
Explanation / Answer
Part A) - False, because it depends on the mass of the objects as well
Part B) - True (Because a net force causes an acceleration)
Part C) - False. Speed is not a vector quantity and the object could be changing direction which requires a force
Part D) - True (Because a net force causes an acceleration)
Part E) - True (Because a net force causes an acceleration, which means a change in velocity)
Part F) - False (Any NET force causes an acceleration)
