Part marks | KNWL. | APP. | THNK. | COMM. | TOTAL will be given for correct steps or any evidence of work leading to a correct solution. (Use g = 9.81 mis?) 1,) For each question, select the best answer from the four alternatives. . An object at rest remains at rest until acted upon by a force. This is d (©) tension (a) inertia friction ) gravit ) (a) (@ friction ) (b) gravity b. The study of dynamics focuses on (a) stopping movement. (b) determining mass and acceleration. (o) explaining why objects move. (@ describing the way objects move: ¢. A block is sitting on a surface. A horizontal force is continuously exerted on the block. After a few seconds, the block begins to move. Which force is greatest? (a) static friction just before block moves (b) kinetic friction just before block moves (©) static friction just after block begins moving (d) kinetic friction just after block begins moving KNWL.
