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: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> : 36N
• What would be the acceleration of a 4 kg mass subject to a net force of 20 Newtons?
answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> : 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: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> : Because 1.5m/s^2*10kg=15N thus there are 5N unaccounted for in this system.
• What is the total of all those forces and in what direction does this total act?
answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> : 25N, 20N in the direction being pushed and 5N in the opposite direction of motion which gives us our 15N of forward motion.
