Chapter 3 Review

For each question, select the best answer from the four alternatives.
1. The study of dynamics focuses on
(a) describing the way objects move. (b) determining mass and acceleration.
(c) explaining why objects move. (d) stopping movement.

2. An object at rest remains at rest until acted upon by a force. This is


(a) inertia (b) gravity
(c) tension (d) friction

Indicate whether each statement is true or false. If you think the statement is false, rewrite it to
make it true.
3.

Match each term on the left with the most appropriate description on the right.
6. (i) force that occurs between two objects that are touching
touchi
(b) normal force (ii) for every force there an equal force acting in the opposite
direction
(c) contact force (iii) reactionary force perpendicular to the direction of the
applied force
Write a short answer to each question.
7. List the four fundamental forces, and write a brief description of each.

8. A rock climber weighing 70 kg is hanging from a rope in the practice gym. Draw a free-body
free
diagram and determine the tension on the
he rope. (Assume that the climber is not moving in any
direction.)

3.5-1 Solving Force Problems

1. A child on a sled is being pulled across a frozen lake by a rope with an applied horizontal force of 60 N. The
mass of the child and the sled together is 30 kg. (Ignore friction.) Calculate the acceleration of the sled.

2. The rope on the sled from Problem 1 can withstand a tension force of 200 N. Assuming that the acceleration
of the sled remains constant, how much more mass could be added to the sled before the rope breaks?

3. A 5 kg laptop is delivered to a classroom and two students grab onto it at the same time. Student A pulls the
laptop to the left with a force of 11 N while Student B pulls on the laptop to the right with a force of 6 N.
Calculate the acceleration of the laptop. (Be sure to include both the magnitude and direction in which it will
travel.)

4. How much more force would Student B need to apply to the laptop in order to cause the laptop to accelerate
3 m/s to the right?
