Below are sample questions representative of the exercises included on this worksheet and related 4.3 Mass, Force and Acceleration (Qualitative) skill assessments:

Problem 1Difficulty: Mastery
A cart is pushed right with 13 N. Friction is 4 N left. Another student pushes left with 9 N. What happens?
Aaccelerates right
Baccelerates left
Caccelerates up
Dno acceleration (net force 0)
Solution & Explanation:For the same net force, a smaller mass changes speed more quickly. For the same mass, a larger net force causes a larger change in speed. If forces push in opposite directions, subtract to find the net force; change in speed follows the net force direction.
Problem 2Difficulty: Mastery
A cart’s net force is reduced to one-third, and its mass is reduced to one-third too. "Acceleration compared to before is…,A. greater | B. smaller | C. the same | D. zero,C. the same,For the same net force
Solution & Explanation:subtract to find the net force; change in speed follows the net force direction.,NO,,,,,online_practice_skill_page,practice,Mass
Problem 3Difficulty: Mastery
Three carts have the same net force. Cart A has the least mass, Cart B is medium mass, Cart C is the most mass. Which has greatest acceleration?
ACart B
BCart A
CCart C
DAll equal
Solution & Explanation:For the same net force, a smaller mass changes speed more quickly. For the same mass, a larger net force causes a larger change in speed. If forces push in opposite directions, subtract to find the net force; change in speed follows the net force direction.
