- Q2Which of the following is NOT a common force experienced on Earth?Air resistanceMagnetic forceFrictionGravity30s
- Q3When calculating net force, how do you handle forces pointing in the same direction?Cancel out the forcesAdd the forces togetherSubtract the forcesIgnore the smaller force30s
- Q4What does a net force of 0 Newtons indicate?The object is moving quicklyThe forces are balancedThe forces are unbalancedThe object is falling30s
- Q5What happens when forces are unbalanced?The object remains completely stillThe forces cancel outThe object changes speed or directionThe object disappears30s

- Q8What determines the direction of movement when forces are unbalanced?The smallest forceThe object's weightThe color of the objectThe largest force30s
- Q9What does air resistance do to a moving object?Makes it spinAlways slows it downHas no effectAlways speeds it up30s
- Q10How do you calculate net force when forces are pointing toward each other?Add the forcesDivide the forcesSubtract the forcesMultiply the forces30s
