answer
newtons second law
question
if you drop a sheet of paper horizontal to the floor and a crumpled ball of paper at the same time from the same height in your classroom, the crumpled ball of paper will hit the floor first because
answer
air friction has greater effect on the non cumrbled pice of paper.
question
an object that orbits another object in space is called a blank
answer
satilite
question
the overall force on an object after all the forces are added together is called the blank force
answer
net
question
the force of gravity between you and Earth is greater than the force of gravity between you and a car because Earth has more blank than the car
answer
mass
question
when the only force acting on a falling object is air resistance, the object is said to be in free fall.
answer
false gravtey
question
the property of matter that resists a change in motion is called inerta.
answer
true
question
To calculate the density of an object, you multiply mass by volume.
answer
mulitply
question
Friction depends on the types of surfaces involved and how hard the surfaces push together
answer
false divide
question
The theory of gravity describes the attraction between all objects in the universe
answer
false law
question
compare the acceleration of the 1-kg object with that of the 2-kg object
answer
the acceleration of the 1kg object is twice the acceleration of the 2kg object.
question
in what direction must a force be applied so that the forces on the 1-kg object are balanced
answer
to the right
question
in Set , explain the difference in the magnitudes of the gravitational forces between the two pairs of objects.
answer
action and reaction forces act on diffrent objects
question
can you identify a pair of balanced forces in the diagram Explain your answer
answer
in set c pair the force equals are equal
question
in Set A, what would you have to do to the objects to make the gravitational forces between the objects in pair 2 the same as the forces between the objects in pair 1
answer
the gravtional force between the objects in pair two is greater than the gravtioal force between the objects in pair 1 because the objects in pair 2 are closer two each other
question
according to Newton's third law of motion, when a hammer strikes and exerts force on a nail, the nail blank
answer
exerts an equal and opposite force on the hammer
question
forces can be added together only if they are blank
answer

question
how can you increase the momentum of an object
answer
by increasing its mass
