- Q1Four solid balls, each with a different mass, are moving at the same speed. Which ball would require the MOST force to stop its motion?ball with a mass of 10 kgball with a mass of 5 kgball with a mass of 15 kgball with a mass of 20 kg60s5.P.1.4
- Q2Which graph represents an object that is decreasing in speed?60s5.P.1.3
- Q3A girl walked for 30 minutes. She noticed that she traveled farther in the first 15 minutes of her walk than in the second 15 minutes. What can she conclude about her walk?She was walking at a constant speed.She walked in two different directions.Her average speed was faster during the first half of her walk.She walked over many hills.60s5.P.1.2
- Q4Which BEST describes the speed of a ball as it is thrown straight up into the air and comes back down?The ball goes slower and slower as it goes up, stops, and then goes faster and faster as it comes down.The ball goes up at a constant speed, stops, then comes down at a constant speed.The ball goes up at a constant speed, stops, and increases speed as it comes down.The ball goes slower and slower as it goes up, stops, and then comes down at a constant speed.60s5.P.1.4
- Q5What can cause a moving object to increase its speed in a forward direction?a force that continually acts on the object in the direction the object is movinga force pushing on the object from the opposite directiona decrease in the mass of the objectan increase in the mass of the object60s5.P.1.1
- Q6A student uses a rubber band to launch the four objects shown in the table. If the student pulls the rubber band back the same amount each time, which object will MOST LIKELY move the fastest when launched?piece of papereraserrubber ballpaper clip60s5.P.1.4
