Determine the net force acting on the crate and describe the resulting motion of the crate. 3N 5N 8N 12. Suppose two 4-newton forces act on an object in the same direction. What is the net force on the object? (Draw a diagram of this problem and solve it.) 13. Five different forces act on an object. Is it possible for the net force on the object to be zero? Explain. (Draw a diagram of this problem and solve it.) 14. What happens to an object when an unbalanced force acts on it? 15. You push harder and harder on a box until it begins sliding across the floor. Which was the stronger of the forces acting on the box, static friction of sliding friction? 16. How do ball bearings reduce friction in machinery? 17. Explain why a falling object subjected to Earth’s gravity does not continue to accelerate forever. 18. What is the difference between mass and weight? 19. What is an action-reaction pair? 20. What must you know to determine which of two vehicles traveling at the same velocity, has the greater momentum? 21. What force is responsible for your socks sticking together after they have been in a clothes dryer? 2 22. What particles do the strong and weak nuclear forces act on? 23. What force is responsible for the orbits of the planets in the solar system? 24. When shooting an arrow at a target, why is it advisable to aim above the bull’s-eye rather than directly at it? 25. When a tennis player practices by hitting a ball against a wall, which of Newton’s laws of motion is the player using? 26. The moon’s gravity is only one sixth that of Earth’s. Explain how the weight and mass of an object differ between the two locations. 27. The graph below shows the relationship between the force acting on an object and the acceleration of the object. What is the acceleration of the object when a 3-newton force acts on it? What is the object’s mass? Force vs. Acceleration Force (N) 6 5 4 3 2 1 0 0 0.2 0.4 0.6 0.8 1.0 Acceleration (m/s²) 28.

During a fuel-economy test of a sports car, the car achieved more miles per gallon of gasoline when it s convertible top was up. Explain how the convertible top being up or down is related to the car’s fuel economy. 3 30. What are the two ways in which the acceleration of an object can be increased? 31. A 100-kg crate, sliding on a floor, is brought to stop by a 25-N force. What is the deceleration of the crate? 32. What is the momentum of an 80-kg runner moving at the speed of 2.5 m/s? 33. What is the weight on Earth of a girl with a mass of 30 kg? The acceleration due to gravity on Earth is 9.8 m/s². 34. Hover craft, which move over water on a cushion of air, can achieve greater speeds than ordinary boats. Explain why this is possible. 35. Imagine that you have designed clothing for professional bicycle racers. How could you judge the effectiveness of the clothing at improving a racer’s speed? 36. Explain how you could determine the force of static friction acting on a box that is resting on a rough floor. 4
