Sample Questions

1multiple choice

A system has two boxes of masses 3 kg and 5 kg on a frictionless surface. If an external force of 16 N pulls the system, what is the acceleration of the system?

Show answer

2 m/s^2

For connected objects, treat them as one system. Total mass = 3 + 5 = 8 kg. So a = F/(m1 + m2) = 16/8 = 2 m/s^2.

A system of two connected boxes has masses 4 kg and 6 kg. If the external force is 20 N and the surface is frictionless, what is the acceleration?

Show answer

2 m/s^2

The total mass is 4 + 6 = 10 kg. Using a = F/(m1 + m2), a = 20/10 = 2 m/s^2.

3multiple choice

A 30 kg barbell is held steady. Using g = 9.8 m/s^2, what upward force must balance its weight?

Show answer

294 N upward

Weight is F = mg = 30 × 9.8 = 294 N downward. To keep it steady, an equal upward force of 294 N is needed.

4multiple choice

A force of 1 N acts on an object of mass 0.5 kg. What acceleration does the object get, and what would the force be if the same object had acceleration 4 m/s^2?

Show answer

2 m/s^2, then 2 N

First, a = F/m = 1/0.5 = 2 m/s^2. Then for the same mass, F = ma = 0.5 × 4 = 2 N.
