In a warehouse, the workers sometimes slide boxes along the floor to move them. Two boxes were sliding toward each other and crashed. The crash caused both boxes to change speed. Based on the information in the diagram, which statement is correct? In your answer, explain what the forces were like and why the boxes changed speed.
  • Box 1 has more mass than Box 2.
  • Box 1 and Box 2 are the same mass.
  • Box 1 has less mass than Box 2.

CFS:
  • accurately identifies the changes to each object in a collision
  • accurately describes the relationship between force, mass AND acceleartion in a collision

Three toy boats with the same mass were in a lake. Two boats were moving and one was stopped. Each boat got bumped by another boat, but not in the same direction. All the boats changed speed as a result of being bumped. Use the information in the diagram to answer.


Which toy boat(s) experienced the strongest force when it was bumped? How do you know?
The blue toy boat experienced the strongest force because it takes a stronger force to slow something down than it takes to speed something up.
The gray toy boat experienced the strongest force because it had the fastest ending speed.
The orange and gray toy boats experienced the strongest forces because they both gained the same force as they sped up. The blue boat lost force, so it slowed down.
All three toy boats experienced the same strength force because they changed speed by the same amount.
Three chairs were rolling across a flat office floor. The blue and red chairs are the same mass, and they have more mass than the yellow chair. Each chair was hit by another chair, but not from the same direction. Use the information in the diagram to answer.

Which chair(s) experienced the strongest force when hit? How do you know?
The blue and red chairs experienced the strongest force because they are both more massive than the yellow chair and they changed speed by the same amount.
The red chair experienced the strongest force because it is as massive as the blue chair and has the highest ending speed.
All three chairs experienced the same force because they changed speed by the same amount.
The blue chair experienced the strongest force because it takes more force to slow an object than it takes to make it go faster.
Scott and James work at a grocery store. After the grocery store closed, they were playing a game with a shopping cart and Scott’s skateboard. They crashed the skateboard and the shopping cart two times. The shopping cart had more mass in Crash 2 than it did in Crash 1. Use the information in the diagram to answer.

In which crash did the skateboard experience a stronger force? Why?
The skateboard did not experience a force; only the shopping cart experienced a force in the crashes.
Crash 2; the force on the cart was stronger in this crash, so the force on the skateboard was also stronger.
The diagram doesn’t tell you anything about the force on the skateboard. It only gives information about the force on the shopping cart.
The skateboard experienced the same force in both crashes. The shopping cart changed speed by the same amount in each crash, so the force on the skateboard was the same each time.
Sandra pushed a wooden block and it slid across the floor. The wooden block gradually slowed down and stopped after moving 10 meters.

Why did the block stop moving?
The floor exerted a force that is opposite to the direction of the block’s motion.
The block ran out of force.
The floor absorbs force from the block.
All objects stop moving because their natural state is to be still.
A proportional model has been created to analyze the relationship between force, mass and acceleration in the collision. Calculate the force and acceleration of each object below.


Object A has a force of 400N, Object B has a force of 400 N. The acceleration of Object B after the collision is 1600 m/s^2
Object A has a force of 16N, Object B has a force of 4 N. The acceleration of Object B after the collision is 40 m/s^2
Object A has a force of 400N, Object B has a force of 400 N. The acceleration of Object B after the collision is 1 m/s^2
Object A has a force of 400N, Object B has a force of 1600 N. The acceleration of Object B after the collision is 1 m/s^2
