Answer the questions 1. 2. 3. 10 N 10 N 10 N 10 N 10 N 10 N 15 N 10 N 17 N 10 N 10 N 12 N OBJECT IS AT REST ORIGINALLY NET HORIZONTAL FORCE = Balanced / Unbalanced (circle one) What, if anything, does this do to the objects horizontal motion? NET VERTICAL FORCE = Balanced / Unbalanced (circle one) What, if anything, does this do to the objects vertical motion? OBJECT IS AT REST ORIGINALLY NET HORIZONTAL FORCE = Balanced / Unbalanced (circle one) What, if anything, does this do to the objects horizontal motion? NET VERTICAL FORCE = Balanced / Unbalanced (circle one) What, if anything, does this do to the objects vertical motion? OBJECT IS AT REST ORIGINALLY NET HORIZONTAL FORCE = Balanced / Unbalanced (circle one) What, if anything, does this do to the objects horizontal motion? NET VERTICAL FORCE = Balanced / Unbalanced (circle one) What, if anything, does this do to the objects vertical motion? 4. 17 N 10 N 17 N 12 N OBJECT IS AT REST ORIGINALLY NET HORIZONTAL FORCE = Balanced / Unbalanced (circle one) What, if anything, does this do to the objects horizontal motion? NET VERTICAL FORCE = Balanced / Unbalanced (circle one) What, if anything, does this do to the objects vertical motion? What do you think the overall motion of this object would be like? (What would its path be?) 5. OBJECT IS ALREADY MOVING at a constant speed TO THE RIGHT BEFORE THESE FORCES ARE APPLIED NET HORIZONTAL FORCE = Balanced / Unbalanced (circle one) 10 N What, if anything, does this do to the objects horizontal motion? 10 N NET VERTICAL FORCE = 10 N 10 N Balanced / Unbalanced (circle one) What, if anything, does this do to the objects vertical motion? 6. OBJECT IS ALREADY MOVING at a constant speed TO THE RIGHT BEFORE THESE FORCES ARE APPLIED NET HORIZONTAL FORCE = Balanced / Unbalanced (circle one) 10 N What, if anything, does this do to the objects horizontal motion? 10 N NET VERTICAL FORCE = 15 N 10 N Balanced / Unbalanced (circle one) What, if anything, does this do to the objects vertical motion? 7. OBJECT IS ALREADY MOVING at a constant speed TO THE RIGHT BEFORE THESE FORCES ARE APPLIED NET HORIZONTAL FORCE = Balanced / Unbalanced (circle one) 10N What, if anything, does this do to the objects horizontal motion? 17 N NET VERTICAL FORCE = 10 N 10 N Balanced / Unbalanced (circle one) What, if anything, does this do to the objects vertical motion? 8. OBJECT IS ALREADY MOVING at a constant speed TO THE RIGHT BEFORE THESE FORCES ARE APPLIED NET HORIZONTAL FORCE = Balanced / Unbalanced (circle one) 17 N What, if anything, does this do to the objects horizontal motion? 10 N NET VERTICAL FORCE = 17 N 12 N Balanced / Unbalanced (circle one) What, if anything, does this do to the objects vertical motion?
