Assessment Forces and the Laws of Motion Teacher Notes and Answers 4 Forces and the Laws of Motion NEWTON’S SECOND AND THIRD LAWS 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. c b d d c d b b In the action-reaction pair involving the book and Earth, Earth exerts a downward force on the book equal to the force of gravity on the book. In the action-reaction pair involving the book and table, the book exerts a downward force on the table equal to the force of gravity acting on the book. The table exerts an equal magnitude force upward the book. Because the book has a downward force and upward force acting on it which are equal in magnitude, the net force on the book is zero. Therefore, the book is in equilibrium. 10. 0.8 m/s2 in the direction of the child Solution Fnet = ∑ Fx = F1 − F2 = 16.3 N −15.8 N = 0.5 N Fnet = ma F 0.5 N a = net = = m 0.62 kg 0.8 m/s2 in the directionof the child © Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Publishing Company Holt McDougal Physics Section Quiz Name: _____________________________ Class: __________________Date: __________________ Assessment Forces and the Laws of Motion Section Quiz: Newton’s Second and Third Laws Write the letter of the correct answer in the space provided. _____ 1.
