27 Copyright © 2007 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley A heavy parachutist has a greater terminal speed compared with a light parachutist with the same size chute, because the heavier person A.has to fall faster for air resistance to match weight. B.is more greatly attracted by gravity to the ground below. C.has a greater air resistance. D.has none of the above. Conceptual Integrated Science—Chapter 3

28 Copyright © 2007 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley A heavy parachutist has a greater terminal speed compared with a light parachutist with the same size chute, because the heavier person A.has to fall faster for air resistance to match weight. B.is more greatly attracted by gravity to the ground below. C.has a greater air resistance. D.has none of the above. Explanation: At terminal speed, both weight and air resistance have the same magnitude. To get that greater magnitude of air resistance, falling speed has to be greater for the heavier person. Conceptual Integrated Science—Chapter 3

37 Copyright © 2007 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley The amount of air resistance on a 0.8-N flying squirrel for terminal speed is A.less than 0.8 N. B.0.8 N. C.more than 0.8 N. D.depends on the orientation of its body. Conceptual Integrated Science—Chapter 3

38 Copyright © 2007 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley The amount of air resistance on a 0.8-N flying squirrel for terminal speed is A.less than 0.8 N. B.0.8 N. C.more than 0.8 N. D.depends on the orientation of its body. Explanation: For terminal speed, net force must equal zero, no matter what the orientation of the squirrel’s body. How great the terminal speed is, however, does depend on body orientation. But that’s not the question asked. Conceptual Integrated Science—Chapter 3

41 Copyright © 2007 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley A tennis ball and a bowling ball are simultaneously released from rest at the top of your school building. The ball to reach the ground first will be the A.tennis ball. B.bowling ball. C.both will hit at the same time. D.any of the above, depending on wind conditions. Conceptual Integrated Science—Chapter 3

42 Copyright © 2007 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley A tennis ball and a bowling ball are simultaneously released from rest at the top of your school building. The ball to reach the ground first will be the A.tennis ball. B.bowling ball. C.both will hit at the same time. D.any of the above, depending on wind conditions. Explanation: Air resistance (not negligible in this case) will act on both when they fall. But the amount of air resistance on the heavy bowling ball will be small compared with the ball’s weight. It will therefore better plow through the air and hit first. Conceptual Integrated Science—Chapter 3

Cheers for Newton’s third law! Conceptual Integrated Science—Chapter 3

47 Copyright © 2007 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley When you jump vertically upward, strictly speaking, you cause Earth to A.move downward. B.also move upward with you. C.remain stationary. D.move sideways a bit. Conceptual Integrated Science—Chapter 3

48 Copyright © 2007 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley When you jump vertically upward, strictly speaking, you cause Earth to A.move downward. B.also move upward with you. C.remain stationary. D.move sideways a bit. Explanation: When you jump upward, you push downward on Earth. Strictly speaking, it therefore moves downward. By how much? Not much, in fact negligibly, because its mass is so much greater than yours. Conceptual Integrated Science—Chapter 3

49 Copyright © 2007 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley The force that propels a rocket is provided by A.gravity. B.its exhaust gases. C.Newton’s laws of motion. D.the atmosphere against which the rocket pushes. Conceptual Integrated Science—Chapter 3

50 Copyright © 2007 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley The force that propels a rocket is provided by A.gravity. B.its exhaust gases. C.Newton’s laws of motion. D.the atmosphere against which the rocket pushes. Explanation: Newton’s laws are at play in rocket propulsion, but the actual force propelling the rocket is its exhaust gases. As Newton’s third law tells us, if the rocket pushes exhaust gases downward, the gases push the rocket upward. Conceptual Integrated Science—Chapter 3

51 Copyright © 2007 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley Anthony is late for class and is soon reprimanded. Causes lead to consequences. We can show, however, that this is not an example of Newton’s third law because A.action and supposed reaction are not simultaneous. B.the laws of physics apply to inanimate situations, not real-life ones. C.both of the above are true. D.neither of the above is true. Conceptual Integrated Science—Chapter 3

52 Copyright © 2007 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley Anthony is late for class and is soon reprimanded. Causes lead to consequences. We can show, however, that this is not an example of Newton’s third law because A.action and supposed reaction are not simultaneous. B.the laws of physics apply to inanimate situations, not real-life ones. C.both of the above are true. D.neither of the above is true. Explanation: Answer B is erroneous, for Newton’s laws govern both inanimate and animate things. An action–reaction pairing is by definition simultaneous. Conceptual Integrated Science—Chapter 3
