You’ve just kicked a rock, and it is now sliding across
the ground about 2 meters in front of you. Which of
these forces act on the ball?
1) Gravity, acting downward.
2) The normal force, acting upward.
3) The force of the kick, acting in the direction of
motion.
4) Friction, acting opposite the direction of motion.
5) 1, 2 and 4 but not 3.

Two rubber bands stretched the standard distance cause an
object to accelerate at 2 m/s2. Suppose another object with
twice the mass is pulled by four rubber bands stretched the
standard length. The acceleration of this second object is
1) 1 m/s2 .
2) 2 m/s2 .
3) 4 m/s2 .
4) 8 m/s2 .
5) 16 m/s2 .
