Suppose a car is moving in a straight line and steadily increases its speed. It moves from 35 km to 40 km (p/h) the first second and 40 to 45 the next. What's the acceleration

5km/h.s

A car starts from rest and after 7 second is moving at 42 m/s. What is the cars average acceleration

6 m/s (squared)

A free falling object starts from rest. After five for six seconds, it will have a speed of about

60 M/S

Suppose you take a trip that covers 180 km and takes 3 hours, your average speed is

60 km/h

Suppose an object is in free fall. Each second the object falls

A larger distance than the second before

If a freely falling object were somehow equipped with a speedometer, it's speed reading would increase each bye

About 10 m/s

In absence of air resistance, objects fall at constant

Acceleration

An object following a straight line path at constant speed

Has zero acceleration

When you look at the speedometer in a moving car, you can see the cars

instantaneous speed

What is needed to describe a vector quantity

Both magnitude and direction

The law of inertia applies to

Both moving and non-moving objects

If you drop a feather and a coin at the same time in a tube filled with air, which will reach the bottom first?

Coin

Once their feet are off the floor, the jumpers acceleration

Is g; no more, no less

A bar just being a canal but two ropes that make equal angles with the direction in which the barge points. Assuming the two pulls on the barge are equal in which direction does the barge move

It move straight ahead. It moves in the direction of the resultant force on it

You are helping your aunt move the piano on wheels from one room to another when you push the piano horizontally it moves at a constant speed what can you say about the piano

It's in dynamic equilibrium

Compared to its weight on earth, a 10 kg object on the moon will weigh

Less

The hang time for most athletes is

Less than 1 second

If the force of gravity acting on the planets, they would

Move in straight lines tangent to their orbits

Possible units for speed

Mph, light years per century, kilometers per hour,

Neither they will both reach the bottom at the same time

Friction is a force that always acts

Opposite to an objects motion

Revolves around the sun

Which has more mass, a kilogram of feathers or of iron

Same mass

Six seconds

The weight of a person can be represented by a vector that acts

Straight down, even if the person is standing on a hill

Acceleration

The change in velocity divided by the time interval

Your velocity is constant

The force required to maintain an object at a constant speed in free space equal to

Zero

After a cannonball is fired into frictionless space, the amount of force needed to keep it going equals

Zero, since no force is necessary to keep it moving
