1) In an everyday example, a car going 60 mph covers 88 feet per second, but if it stays at that speed is NOT accelerating.

When we step on the gas to increase the speed to 70mph, then there is acceleration involved. A common example of speed is the number given by the speedometer in a car. A speedometer tells us the cars speed, not its velocity, because it gives only a number and not a direction. Speed is a measure of the distance an object travels in a given length of time: 2)

a car heading west at 55 mph on a level road. -> Uniform motion a car heading west at 55 mph on a hill. -> Accelerated motion a car going around a curve at 55 mph. -> Accelerated motion a dolphin leaping out of the water. -> Accelerated motion a tennis ball tossed into the air; the same ball as it bounces off the ground. -> Accelerated motion an apple sitting on your kitchen table. -> Uniform motion

3)

a pitcher throws a baseball. - > Applied Force ,Air Resistance Force, Gravitational force a batter hits a baseball out of the park. -> Applied Force, Resistance Force, Gravitational force a leaf falls to the ground. -> Air Resistance Force, Gravitational force the Moon orbits Earth.-> Gravitational force you sit in a chair -> Gravitational force

4. Why dont the planets just fly off into space? What keeps them in their orbits? All bodies, including the planets, possess moment, which keeps them going in the same direction. The Sun's gravity deflects the planets from this straight line movement, and the result is an elliptical orbit around the Sun. It's a constant balance between momentum and gravity. So that all planets keep rotating in their orbit.

Heavier objects (really, more massive ones) produce a bigger gravitational pull than lighter ones, so as the heavyweight in our solar system, the Sun exerts the strongest gravitational pull. 5. 6. A hockey player hits a puck at one end of an empty skating rink. The puck travels across the ice in a straight line until it is stopped by the goal at the other end. Explain how each of Newtons laws of motion applies to this situation. First law: The velocity of a body remains constant unless the body is acted upon by an external force.
1.

Befor hitting a puck it was in uniform motion . after applied force (external force) by hocky stick ,velocity is changed Second law: The acceleration a of a body is parallel and directly proportional to the net force F and inversely proportional to themass m, i.e., F = ma.
2.

Due to applied force a puck has got acceleration because of which it moved in the forward direction . so F=ma . If a puck is heavy in weight it wont move much distance so acceleration is inversely proportional to mass Third law: The mutual forces of action and reaction between two bodies are equal, opposite and collinear.
3.

After hitting the goal a puck is stopped . because puck hits the goal with some force and an equal force is applied on a puck by goal.

7. What is the difference between weight and mass? Mass Mass is a measure of the amount of material in an object, being directly related to the number and type of atoms present in the object. Mass does not change with a body's position, movement or alteration of its shape, unless material is added or removed. The mass is a fundamental property of an object, a numerical measure of its inertia and a fundamental measure of the amount of matter in the object.

The fundamental relation between the mass and the weight is defined by Newton's Second Law and can be expressed as F=ma where F = force (N) m = mass (kg) a = acceleration (m/s2) (1)

Weight Weight is the gravitational force acting on a body mass. Transforming Newton's Second Law related to the weight as a force due to gravity can be expressed as W=mg where W = weight (N) m = mass (kg) g = acceleration of gravity (m/s2) (2)

8. If your car goes from 0 to 60 miles per hour in 6 seconds, what is your acceleration? If you step on the brake and your car goes from 60 miles per hour to 0 in 3 seconds, what is your acceleration? Final velocity - Starting velocity divided by time = acceleration 60 mph - 0 mph divided by 6 seconds 10 mph per second is the acceleration.

Similarly Acceleration =0 60mph = -60mph/3 sec = -20mph(negative acceleration)

9. How much force are you exerting when you lift a 50-pound dumbbell? What units will you use to describe this force? 1 Pound = 0.45 Kg 50 pound = 22.5 kg 1 kg = 9.81 Newton 22.5 kg = 220.6 newton

So force = 220.6 newton

10. If a person weighs 150 pounds, what does he weigh in Newtons? 150 pounds = 661.8 newton
