QUICK REVIEW (MONDAY, 9/30/13) Exam #3
2
Review Question #1 Joe pushes a 2-kg ball with a force of 10 newtons, Sally pushes the same ball with twice the force. How does the acceleration of Sally’s push compare to that of Joe’s push? a) The acceleration is ½ as much b) The acceleration is the same c) The acceleration is twice as much Acceleration = force/mass a=F/m If force doubles (and mass stays the same), what happens to acceleration?
3
Review Question #2 Joe pushes the same 2-kg ball again with 10 newtons of force. This time Sally pushes a 4-kg ball also with 10 newtons of force. How does the acceleration of Sally’s push compare to Joe’s push? a) The acceleration is ½ as much b) The acceleration is the same c) The acceleration is twice as much Acceleration = force/mass a=F/m If mass doubles (and force stays the same), what happens to acceleration?

Review Questions #3 & #4 In question #2, why was the acceleration of the balls different? The more massive ball had more inertia The less massive ball had more inertia The force on the balls was different We used the equation to answer #1 & #2, but this question is conceptual What is the property of matter that resists a change in motion? What does that property depend on?
5
Review Question #5 Newton’s 1 st Law is often called a) The Law of Forces b) The Law of Motion c) The Law of Inertia Newton’s 3 Laws are all collectively known as Newton’s Laws of Motion There is no “Law of Forces”
6
Review Question #6 Newton’s 2 nd Law deals with the relationships between a) Mass and Weight b) Acceleration, Speed, and Distance c) Force, Mass, and Acceleration The equation that we use for the 2 nd Law is : F=m x a
7
Questions 7-9 g=9.8 m/s 2 F=m x a Weight is a force, with “g” used for “a” Let’s use that A freely falling object has an acceleration of ______________. The weight of an object is given by what equation?___________ What is the weight (in newtons) of a 10-kg mass?_______________ A = g = 9.8 m/s 2 W = mass x g W = 10 kg x 9.8 m/s 2 Weight = 98 N
8
What is acceleration at 6 N of force? What is the mass of this object? From this chart, we can determine force, acceleration and mass. Remember the equations: F = M x A M = F / A A = F / M Review Questions #10, #11 & #12 2 m/s 2 Read from the graph m = (6 N ) / (2 m/s 2 )m = 3 kg
9
Review Questions #13, #14 & #15 What is the force on a 3.5 kg object that is accelerated at 2 m/s 2 ? A force of 300 newtons applied to a rocket accelerates it to 600 m/s 2. What is the rocket’s mass? A force of 60 newtons on a ball with a mass of 3 kilograms has what acceleration?
10
Review Questions #16, #17 & #18 A mass of 0.5 kg is thrown with an acceleration of 9.8 m/s 2. What force was required? A toy car accelerates at 2.5 m/s 2. The force on the car was 1.25 N? What was the toy car’s mass? If a 4-kg cannonball is fired with a force of 6000 newtons, what is its acceleration?
