Taylor is pushing a Disney turkey leg vending cart with a mass of 42 kg. The cart’s acceleration is 2 m/s2. Find the force Taylor is applying to the cart.

1

Draw the Free Body Diagram Taylor is pushing a Disney turkey leg vending cart with a mass of 42 kg. The cart’s acceleration is 2 m/s2. Find the force Taylor is applying to the cart.

2

What is the net force in the x-direction of the cart if it experiences a frictional force of 1 N?

2

Jordan’s airplane accelerates horizontally at 31 m/s2. Find Jordan’s airplane’s mass if she applies a force of 273,730 N. Due to the aerodynamics of the plane’s design, you can disregard air resistance. (Or can you???)

Draw the Free Body Diagram: Keith kicks a basketball with a mass of 9 kg. He says, “It’ll be fine" as it breaks a window. If Keith applied a force of 41 N to the basketball, find the ball’s acceleration. (Assume no vertical motion)

2

What is the net force of the basketball in the x-direction if it experiences an air-resistance force of 0.4N?

2

If the object has no acceleration in either direction, what is the magnitude of Ft?

2

If the object has no acceleration in either direction, what is the magnitude of Fg?

2

Knowing the magnitude of Fg, what is the object's mass?

2

If Ft = 105N, what is the net force in the x-direction?

2

If Ft = 105N, what is the object's acceleration?

3

What magnitude of Ft would be needed to have an acceleration of 20m/s2?
