Answer the following based on Newton's Second Law:

*

How much net force is required to accelerate a 12 kg mass at 3 m/s^2?

answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> scussion:

Force = mass * acceleration

12kg * 3m/s^2 = 36Newtons

#$&*

*

What would be the acceleration of a 4 kg mass subject to a net force of 20 Newtons?

answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> scussion:

20N = 4kg * accel accel= 5m/s^2

#$&*

*

If you exert a force of 20 Newtons on a 10-kg object and it accelerates in the direction of your force at 1.5 m/s^2, then how do

you know there are other forces acting on the object besides your own?

answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> scussion:

10 * 1.5m/s^2 = 15 Newtons, when the Force I exerted was equal to 20N. Theirfore there must be other forces acting on the object.

#$&*

*

What is the total of all those forces and in what direction does this total act?

answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> scussion:

The total of the forces would be 15N, I would assume that friction was providing a force of -5N in the opposite direction of the

force I was applying. 20N+ -5N = 15N

&#Very good responses. Let me know if you have questions. &#
