d. It is a force exerted on a moving object by a surface in the same direction as the motion.
____ 3. A soccer ball is rolling along the ground at 5.0 m/s. After some time, it is observed to come to a stop. Which
of the following is true?
a. Motion at a constant speed needs a net force to maintain the motion.

Short Answer (10T/I)

1. Sandra pedals her bicycle with a force of 12.0 N [S]. A headwind exerts a force of 2.00 N against her motion.
If the total mass of Sandra and the bicycle is 65.0 kg, what is her acceleration? (5 T/I)

2. The coefficient of kinetic friction between rubber and wet concrete is about 0.550. The driver of a car with a
mass of 1050 kg locks the brakes, causing the tires to skid. Determine the force of kinetic friction acting on
the car. (5 T/I)
