ACTIVITY 1

a) Yes because there is stronger force moving the mass

b) You would need less force to move smaller objects
c) It would take more force to move the object

ACTIVITY 2

a) Force is needed to move a mass

b) F (infinity sign) m
c) A small force leads to a small acceleration.
A large force leads to a large acceleration.
d) If you change speed slowly, you have a small acceleration

If you change speed quickly, you have a

large acceleration

If you do not change speed, you have a neutral acceleration

e) The greater the mass of an object, the less it will accelerate when a given
a force

Activity 3
a) No because the more mass that there is the more force you need to
accelerate it
b) Apply more force

Activity 4

a) Woomera is used to achieve the force that is unattainable by a human

b) 3x10spuared = 300newtons
c) 3 x 20squared = 700 newtons
d) The woomera exponentially boosts the force of the object used.

Exercise 1
a) C will experience the most acceleration as it has the most applied
force and the smallest mass
 Exercise 2
a) Newtons 2nd law of motion: when a force is applied to an object
will accelerate, the accelerate the acceleration will depended on the
size of the applied force and the mass of the object
b) He wanted to test the effect of force on acceleration by placing the
ball on the slope it is being displayed as gravity is pulling the ball
down the slope

I) He changed the slope which effected the speed of the ball.

Trial # Lower height Higher height

1 3.2 1.9
2 3.1 1.8
3 2.9 2.1
Average 3.1 1.9
ii) his experiment demonstrated newtons 2nd law

iii) You can demonstrate this principle by dropping a rock or marble and a

wadded-up piece of paper at the same time. They fall at an equal rate—their
acceleration is constant due to the force of gravity acting on them.

a) The car will continue to go 60km/h without changing speed

b) No as the car will maintain the same speed
c) The driver must hit the brakes to slow down
d) The speed of the car will decrease

Exercise 3
i. The force
ii. The speed is half as strong
iii. Double the force applied to it

B) the ball will gain speed and acceleration as the ball is kicked with more force
