SLO 2 Forces & Motion Review

Front

What is Newton's Second Law of Motion?

Back

Acceleration depends on the force applied and the mass of an object.

Front

What is the formula for calculating force?

Back

Force (F) = Mass (m) × Acceleration (a)

Front

If a 12 kg cart is pushed with a force of 15 N, what is its acceleration?

Back

1.25 m/s²

Front

What is the amount of force required to accelerate a 20 kg object to 5 m/s²?

Back

100 N

Front

What does a negative acceleration indicate about an object's motion?

Back

The object is slowing down.

Front

What is the relationship between mass and acceleration in Newton's Second Law?

Back

As mass increases, acceleration decreases for a constant force.

Front

What is the unit of force in the International System of Units (SI)?

Back

Newton (N)

Front

What does a velocity of 0 m/s indicate about an object's motion?

Back

The object is at rest.

Front

How does friction affect the motion of an object?

Back

Friction opposes the motion, reducing acceleration.

Front

What is the significance of a frictionless surface in physics problems?

Back

It allows for maximum acceleration without resistance.
