Multiple Choice
Is the apple accelerating?
The apple is accelerating because forces are unbalanced
The apple is not accelerating because forces are balanced

Multiple Select
Which of the following statements correctly describe Newton's 2nd Law?
Acceleration is directly proportional to the force applied.
If you apply a greater force, the object accelerates more.
Acceleration is inversely proportional to mass.
Acceleration does not depend on the direction of force.

Multiple Select
Select all correct statements about the relationship between force, mass, and acceleration according to Newton's 2nd Law.
Acceleration increases with increased force if mass is constant.
Acceleration decreases with increased mass if force is constant.
Force is equal to mass times acceleration.
Acceleration is independent of mass.
46
Multiple Choice
