1.
Name_______________________________
Period_____
What force is needed to accelerate an 850. kg car at 5.0 m/s2?
Answer_______________________
2.
What acceleration results when a force of 5230. N acts on a 650. kg object?
Answer_______________________
3.
A force of 5.0 N is applied to a 355-g hockey puck initially at rest on a frictionless surface.
a. What is the acceleration acting on the puck?
Answer_______________________
b. How fast is the puck moving after 2.5 s?
Answer_______________________
c. How far has the puck moved after 3.2 s?
Answer_______________________
4.
A 93.5-kg skydiver is falling and accelerating down at 5.65 m/s2. What is the force due to air
resistance acting on the skydiver?
Answer_______________________
5.
A 1000 kg car is moving at a constant 20.3 m/s. A 330. N force starts acting on it forward and a
220. N force acts against its motion. If the forces act for 5.00s, how fast is the car now moving?
Answer_______________________
6.
A car is moving at a constant 12.8 m/s. A 290. N force acts forward on the car and a 290. N force
acts backward on the car. The forces act for 3.25 s. How fast is the car moving after the 3.25 s?
Answer_______________________
7.
A 100. kg person is standing on an elevator.
a. What does the person weigh on the stationary elevator?
Answer_______________________
b. What does the person weigh if the elevator is accelerating up at 2.00 m/s2?
Answer_______________________
c. What does the person weigh if the elevator is accelerating down at 4.50 m/s2?
Answer_______________________
8.
A 75.3-kg person is riding in a car moving at 24.5 m/s when it hits a car and stops over a distance
of 1.20 m. What force acts on the person while stopping?
