Some people (such as me) will state newton's first law as a "unbalanced" external force rather than a "net" force. What does unbalanced mean here?

Read in your physics book the following 56-62, the sections on Newton's first law, mass, and newtons second law of motion. the first two sections should re-ieterate the last video. Focus on the section on the second law. do you have any questions?

This is a position vs time graph. is the man walking faster or slower in the green section compared to the red section?

Green is faster
red is faster
they are the same speed.
what is the farthest distance the walker gets from his starting point?

A clown is throwing a ball up and down on a railroad platform moving through town. Which of the following is the difference between the frame of reference of someone on the car, vs someone on the ground?
From the ground, the ball is moving straight up and down, from the railroad car, the motion looks like an arc through the air.
From the railroad car, the ball is moving straight up and down, from the ground, the motion looks like an arc through the air.
because the motion of the car is not accelerating, the two perspectives are the same
Plug and chug time. You are on earth and you toss a ball up in the air with the initial velocity of 4 m/s. The ball starts 1 meter from the ground. How long does it take to hit the ground. given the following equation, what do you know?

1 m
4 m/s
-9.8 m/s^2
9.8 m/s^2
5 seconds
3 m
0 m
Variable we are looking for
a
v0
x0
time when it hits
position when it hits
which of the following acceleration graph matches the above velocity graph?
Option 1

Option 2

Option 3

Option 4

Which of these is the best definition of inertia?
How hard something is to rotate
the tendency to resist a change in velocity
A force that acts on all matter
the reason there is a pause before something starts falling
Mass is simply a measurement of inertia. What is the definition of mass?
How heavy something is
how much something resists acceleration
how much space something takes up
the quantity of molecules making up an object
Which of the following is a good example of Newton's first law of motion?
a rocket launching into space
a ball rolling down a hill
a car accelerating along a straight road
a book resting on a table
true/false - and object with mass can have no weight
True
False
1/100000 m/s^2
1/100000 Nm/kgs^2
100000 kg/n
100000m/s^2
assume a rocket had a constant acceleration of 0.01m/s^2, Using v=at, what is the velocity of that rockets after 10 days?
v=(0.01)(10)=0.1 m/s
v=(0.01)(10)(24)(60)(60) = 8,640 m/s
v=(0.01)(10)(9.8)(60)(60)=3,528 m/s
v=(0.01)(10)=0.1 m/day
A 400 kg bear is grasping a vertical tree slides down at a constant velocity. What is the friction force that acts on the bear?
the force of gravity on the bear is $400kg \cdot -10m/s^2$, we know the friction force = +4000 kgm/s^2 because the sum of forces has to be zero since there is no acceleration
