- Q1According to Newton's second law of motion, what is the relationship between force, mass, and acceleration?The force applied to an object is directly proportional to its mass and inversely proportional to its acceleration.The force applied to an object is directly proportional to its acceleration and inversely proportional to its mass.The acceleration of an object is directly proportional to the net force applied to it and inversely proportional to its mass.The acceleration of an object is directly proportional to its mass and inversely proportional to the net force applied to it.30s

- Q4According to Newton's second law of motion, what is the formula that relates force, mass, and acceleration?F = m + aF = a/mF = amF = ma30s
- Q5Which of Newton's laws of motion states that an object at rest will stay at rest, and an object in motion will stay in motion with the same speed and in the same direction, unless acted on by an external force?Newton's first law of motionNewton's third law of motionNewton's law of universal gravitationNewton's second law of motion30s
- Q6According to Newton's third law of motion, when you push against a wall, the wall pushes _____?aside from youback against youwith younowhere30s
- Q7What is the net force acting on an object when all the forces are balanced?15 Newtons5 Newtons10 Newtons0 Newtons30s
- Q8Which of the following best describes an unbalanced force?A force that only changes the direction of an object.A force that cancels out all other forces.A force that keeps an object at rest.A force that causes an object to move or change its motion.30s
- Q9A box with a mass of 5 kg is pushed with a force of 10 N to the right, while another force of 5 N is pushing it to the left. What is the net force acting on the box?20150530s
- Q10A 2 kg book is resting on a table. What is the net force acting on the book?100.52030s
- Q11What is the formula to calculate speed?Speed = Distance * TimeSpeed = Time / DistanceSpeed = Distance + TimeSpeed = Distance / Time30s
- Q12A car travels a distance of 300 kilometers in 5 hours. What is the speed of the car?200 km/h60 km/h30 km/h100 km/h30s
- Q13What is the difference between speed and velocity?Speed is the rate of change of position, while velocity is the rate of change of time.Speed is the rate of change of time, while velocity is the rate of change of position.Velocity includes direction, while speed does not.Velocity depends on mass, while speed does not.30s
