A rocket is flying toward a distant galaxy. Suddenly, the pilot realizes they are out of
fuel. The rocket will____________
a)
b)
c)

stop before reaching the galaxy.
stop, then start moving in the opposite direction.
A 50kg box sits motionless on a ramp, as shown below.
Draw the force diagram for the box.
What is the magnitude of the normal component of the force of the ramp on the box?
20°
A 50kg box slides at 4 m/s down a ramp, as shown below.
Draw the force diagram for the box.
What is the magnitude of the normal component of the force of the ramp on the box?
v
20°
For an object resting upon a non-accelerating surface, the normal force is equal to
the weight of the object.
According to Newton's third law, every force is accompanied by an equal and
opposite reaction force. The reason that these forces do not cancel each other is
____.
a. the action force acts for a longer time period
b. the two forces are not always in the same direction
c. one of the two forces is greater than the other
d. the two forces act upon different objects; only forces on the same object can
balance each other.
e. ... nonsense! They do cancel each other. Objects accelerate because of the
presence of a third force.
As you sit in your chair and study your physics (presuming that you do), the force of
gravity acts downward upon your body. The reaction force to the force of the Earth
pulling you downward is ___.
a. the force of the chair pushing you upward
b. the force of the floor pushing your chair upward
c. the force of the Earth pushing you upward
d. the force of air molecules pushing you upwards
e. the force of your body pulling the Earth upwards
f. ... nonsense! Gravity is a field force and there is no such reaction force.
When a NASA space shuttle is flying into space, what object pushes the shuttle
forward?

c. The earth.
d. The gas being released.
e. None of the above.
