15.Describe the motion of a person not wearing a seat belt if the car stops suddenly.
a. The person and car will stop together.
b. The person will stop faster than the car because they are lighter.
c. The car will stop and the person will keep moving forward because of

 19. ) The moon has a smaller mass than the Earth. If you were able to travel to the moon

b. Decrease
c. Stay the same
d. Vary with day and night

20. Which force always pulls downward on objects?

a. Support force
b. Friction force
c. Gravity
d. Air resistance

B. TRUE or FALSE
1. Work is a form of energy, and in fact it has units of energy.
2. Watt is the standard metric unit of power; Joule is the standard metric unit of energy.
3. A N•m is equal to a Joule.
4. A kg•m2/s2 is a mass unit times a speed squared unit, making it a kinetic energy unit and
equivalent to a Joule.
5. Work is not dependent on how rapidly the force displaces an object; power is time-based and
calculated by force multiplied by speed.
6. Since Superman does not cause a displacement, no work is done; he is merely holding the car
to prevent its descent down the hill.
7. The upward force does not cause the horizontal displacement so this is a NON-example of
work.
8. There is a component of force in the direction of displacement and so this is an example of
work.
9. There is a force and a displacement; the force acts in the opposite direction as the
displacement and so this force does negative work.
10. For uniform circular motion, the force acts perpendicular to the direction of the motion and
so the force never does any work upon the object.

C. Identification

1. Mechanics is the study of ..

2. A car rounds a curve at 55 mph. What is changing?
3. When an object travels through water, it encounters drag known as?
4. When it travels through air, it encounters drag known as?
5. The strength of gravity between two objects depends on
6. The force that resists movement between two objects.
7. What causes an object to change speed or direction . The change is resisted by the
mass of the object.
8. Kinetic energy depends upon the 2 factors.
9. Discovered that a moving object does not come to rest unless an outside force acts
on the object .
10. Who formulated the three laws of motion.
