The thrust from a rocket's engine lifts the rocket into the air. Which of the following best explains why the engine's thrust lifts the rocket?

• For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. Forces occur in equal and opposite pairs.

• An object in motion tends to stay in motion; an object at rest tends to stay at rest.

• The greater an object's mass, the greater its resistance to changing it's motion.

• The greater the force applied to the an object, the greater the object's acceleration.

Two bicycle riders have the same average speed and wind up in two different places. However, when these two bicycles riders have the same velocity, they wind up in the same place. How is this possible?

• Speed is a measure of distance traveled over a particular time period.

• Velocity includes not only speed but also the direction of the motion.

• Speed can change over the distance that is traveled by a moving object.

• Velocity cannot change as an object moves as a result of a force being applied.

Ms. Chambers graphed the position of a cart during a 7 second time interval. Which answer choice correctly describes the movement of the cart?

• The cart accelerated at a constant rate of approximately .8 m/s2

• The cart was stationary with a velocity of 0 m/s for the entire 7 seconds.

• The cart was stationary except for a short burst of acceleration of 0.5 m/s2

• The cart moved at constant velocity of 0.5 m/s for the entire 7 seconds.
