Increases
If one object has twice as much mass as another object, it also has twice as much
Inertia
Compared to a 1kg block of solid iron, a 2kg block of solid iron has twice as much
Inertia, mass, volume
A rock is thrown vertically into the air, at the top of its path, it's acceleration in m/s/s
Is 9.8
A force is a vector quantity because it has both
Magnitude and direction

Mass
An objects weight may properly be expressed in units of
Newtons

A sack of potatoes weighing 200N falls from an air plane. As the velocity of the fall increases, air resistance also increases. When air resistance equals 200N and the sack acceleration in m/s/s is
0
A 10kg brick and a 1kg book are dropped in a vacuum. The force of gravity on the 10kg brick is

A bag of groceries has a mass of 10kg and a weight of
About 100N
A sky diver jumps from a high flying plane. As her velocity of fall increases her acceleration
Decreases
Your weight is

About 5000N
If a net object of constant mass experiences a constant force, it will have a constant
Acceleration
If the mass of an object doesn't change, a constant net force on the object produces at constant
Acceleration

Always add up to your equal weight
Which has 0 acceleration
At rest, moving at a constant velocity in mechanical equilibrium
Neglecting friction, a large block of ice and a small block of ice, start sliding down an incline together. The heavier block will get to the bottom
At the same time as the light block
Whenever the net force on an object is 0 it's acceleration is
At zero
Science
Chapter 3
Suppose a particle is being accelerated thru space by a 10N force. Suddenly the particle encounters a second force of 10N in the opposite direction from the first force the particle with both forces acting on it
Continues at the speed it had when it encountered the second force
