QuestionAnswer
An object cannot remain at rest unless? The net force acting on it is zero.
If a block is moving to the left at a constant velocity, what can one conclude? The net force applied to the block is zero.
A block of mass 2kg is acted upon by two forces: 3N (directed to the left) and 4N (directed to the right). What can you say about the block's motion? It could be moving to the left, moving to the right, or be instantaneously at rest.
A massive block is being pulled along a horizontal frictionless surface by a constant horizontal force. The block must be __________. moving with a constant nonzero acceleration
Two forces, of magnitude 4N and 10N, are applied to an object. The relative direction of the forces is unknown. The net force acting on the object __________. cannot have a magnitude equal to 5N
If the acceleration of an object is zero, are no forces acting on it? No
If an object is moving, is it possible for the net force acting on it to be zero? Yes
If a person gives a sharp pull on the dangling thread, where is the thread likely to break: below the stone or above it? Below
If a person gives a slow and steady pull on the dangling thread, where is the thread likely to break: below the stone or above it? Above
When you stand still on the ground, how large a force does the ground exert on you? F=mg
The force exerted perpendicular to a surface is called? Normal Force

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.
