Which of the following is the fundamental unit for a force?
Answer
Meter
kg*m/s
m/s^2
kg*m/s^2
m*kg^2
m*s/kg
Question 2
Question
Which of the following is Newton's Second Law?
Answer
An object at rest will remain at rest until acted upon by an outside, unbalanced force
Every force has an equal and opposite reaction force
Energy cannot be created or destroyed, only transferred from one object to another
The acceleration of an object is equal to the net force acting on it divided by the mass of the object
Question 3
Question
Which of the following is true for the force of gravity?
Answer
On Earth, it is always directed straight down, toward the Earth's center
It is always 9.8 m/s^2
It is also referred to as an objects 'weight'
It acts on all objects equally
Keeping everything else the same, if you double an object's mass, you double the force of gravity acting upon it.
Question 4
Question
What is the force of gravity acting on an object with a mass of 2.5 kg?
Hint: You can use 10 m/s^2 for the acceleration due to gravity.
The first blank is for the value. The second blank is for the units.

Answer
25
N
Question 5
Question

Question 6
Question
Put the appropriate forces in the correct spot for this object, a box acceleration to the right due to an applied force.
What is the net force acting on this object?
First blank is for the value. Second blank is for the units. Third blank is for the direction.
Net Force = [blank_start]17[blank_end] [blank_start]N[blank_end] [blank_start]Right[blank_end]
What is the net force on a object with the following forces acting upon it:
First blank is the resultant value. Second blank is the units. Third blank is the angle from the + x axis.
+x = 10 N
- x = 13 N
+y = 0 N
- y = 4 N
R = [blank_start]5[blank_end] [blank_start]N[blank_end] @ [blank_start]240[blank_end] degrees
Answer
5
N
240
Question 9
Question
[blank_start]Gravity[blank_end] is the force between all masses.
[blank_start]Friction[blank_end] is the force that resists all motion.
[blank_start]Normal[blank_end] is the force that resists an object being pulled into another object. It is always 90 degrees to its surface.
Answer
Gravity
Friction
Normal
Question 10
Question
A 10 kg box is moving on a rough surface with a speed of 1 m/s. It comes to rest in 2 seconds. What is the force of friction acting on the box?
