A) A

B) B

C) C

D) D
Question 2 (1 point)

A man is standing in a low-ceiling cave. He has raised his arms and pushing against the ceiling with a force
of 300 N. His mass is 90 kg. What force does the floor exert on him?

Question 2 options:

A) 300 N

B) 0 N

C) 390 N

Question 3 (1 point)

At the CrossFit Championships, a 75 kg athlete is pushing a 180 kg sled. The athlete and the sled move
forward together with a maximum forward force of 1,663 N. Assuming friction is zero, what is the
magnitude of the force (in N) of the athlete on the sled?

Hint: It may be easier to work out the acceleration first.

Hint: Enter only the numerical part of your answer to the nearest integer.

of 250 N. His mass is 70 kg. What force does the floor exert on him?

Question 5 options:

A) 250 N

B) 320 N

Question 7 (2 points)

A group of budding engineers made a cannon 1.5 m in length that shoots potatoes. They recorded the
speed at which a potato could be launched. They measured it to be a constant 67 m/s over a horizontal
distance of 0.40 m. The potato had a mass of 257 g. Assuming the potato accelerated from rest in the
cannon, what was the magnitude of the force (in N) that the cannon exerted of the potato? (Presume the
potato hits a wall after 4.0 m and stops moving).

Hint: Enter only the numerical part of your answer to zero decimal places.

Your Answer:

Question 8 (2 points)
A force of 1.6 N is applied horizontally to a 643 g cereal box that is at rest on a horizontal tabletop. The
friction force between the box and table is 0.5 N. What is the magnitude of the normal force (in N) acting
on the box?

Hint: Enter only the numerical part of your answer to two decimal places.

Your Answer:
Question 9 (2 points)

A horizontal force of 2.1 N is applied to a 781 g pile of clothes across a table. The friction force between
the clothes and the table is 1.4 N. What is the magnitude of the normal force (in N) acting on the clothes?

Hint: Enter only the numerical part of your answer to two decimal places.

Your Answer:
Question 10 (2 points)
