You are accelerating your car down a straight, level road. Which free body diagram represent the forces on the car? Neglect the effect of air resistance.
Based on the diagram, which of the following statements is not true?
An object moves forward with a constant velocity. What additional information do we need to know to determine the force acting upon the object?
How can we use this diagram to help calculate the net force on the object?
A baseball is hit with a bat. While the ball flies through the air, which forces act on the ball? Neglect air resistance.
A man is painting a house. He notices that there is a small drop of paint that is remaining perfectly still on the vertical wall. What conclusion can he draw about the paint?
A physics book is resting on a desk. You push horizontally (from the side) on the book and the book moves across the desk at a constant speed. Which free body diagram represents the force on the physics book? Neglect the effect of air resistance
