True or false? Every force has an equal and opposite force.
True or false? The resultant force is the product of all forces acting upon an object.
Which of these situations could occur if the resultant force was zero?
The object would remain stationary
The object would accelerate
The object would decelerate

Which factors increase braking distance?
True or false? The gravitational field strength on Earth is roughly 100N/kg.
What force is exerted on objects falling in a fluid?
Fluid force
Friction
Drag force
What is the terminal velocity of an object?
The speed of an object just before it lands on the ground
The speed of an object which is guaranteed to damage it or kill it (if it is alive)
The speed of an object at which weight and drag force are balanced
True or false? An elastic object stays permanently deformed, even when the forces deforming it are removed.
True or false? Hooke's law states that the extension of a spring is directly proportional to the force applied, providing that the limit of proportionality is not exceeded.
What does k stand for in F = ke?
Force applied, N
Extension, m
Spring constant, N/m
True or false? Using a wind deflector increases the amount of fuel needed.
True or false? Speed cameras measure the time it takes for a car to travel over a set distance and then the speed is calculated.
