Why does the nail in the previous question move downward?
Playing “tug of war”, the juniors pull left with a force of 1000 N,
the seniors pull right with a force of 1250 N. What is the effect of these
forces on movement?
A 10 kg box is pushed left with a force of 20 N against a 10 N
frictional force. What is the acceleration of the box?

I kick my 0.25 kg calculator horizontally off of Ike’s 8 m tall
roof, with an initial velocity of 2 m/s. What is the initial acceleration
of the calculator?
How does changing time of impact change the force?
FDt = mDv
What happens to gravitational force if the distance is cut in half?
ex. A 20 N gravitational force exists between two objects 100 m apart.
What would the force be if they were 50 m apart? What if the mass is
tripled?
What happens to gravitational force if the mass of one object
is doubled? Be able to calculate gravitational force, given mass and distance

A 20 kg clay ball traveling at 30 m/s right collides with a 10 kg clay
ball traveling at 40 m/s to the left. What is the final velocity of the
pair? Which had the greatest change in velocity?
20 kg
30 m/s
10 kg
40 m/s
m1v1 + m2v2 = (m1 + m2)vf
(20 kg)(30 m/s) + (10 kg)(-40 m/s) = (30 kg)vf
vf = 6.7 m/s
ball traveling left had the greatest change in velocity
