Name Inertia Homework Multiple Choice Identify the choice that best completes the statement or answers the question. ____ a. b. c. 1. The law of inertia applies to objects at rest. moving objects. both moving and nonmoving objects. ____ to a. b. c. d. 2. ____ a. b. c. d. 3. An object following a straight-line path at constant speed has no forces acting on it. has a net force acting on it in the direction of motion. has zero acceleration. must be moving in a vacuum. ____ a. b. c. 4. Which has more mass, a kilogram of feathers or a kilogram of iron? The feathers The iron Neither—they both have the same mass. The force required to maintain an object at a constant speed in free space is equal the mass of the object. the weight of the object. zero. the force required to stop it. True/False Indicate whether the statement is true or false. ____ 5. A force can be simply defined as a push or a pull. ____ 6. Inertia is the property that every material object has; inertia resists changes in an object's state of motion. ____ 7. If a hockey puck were to slide on a perfectly frictionless surface, it will eventually slow down because of its inertia. ____ 8. An astronaut weighs the same on Earth as in space. ____ 9. An astronaut has the same mass on Earth as in space. ____ 10. The reason a penny thrown straight up inside an airplane will come back to your hand is that you, the air inside the plane, and the penny are all moving at the same horizontal velocity. Short Answer 11. What was the force that pulled the toy forward? What was the force that pulled the toy backward?
