20 points9. A (1st law)

40 points10. What is Newton’s 2nd law of motion

(word for word)?

40 points10. The acceleration of an object depends on the force acting on it and the object’s mass.

40 points

20 points

11. ActionReaction

20 points12. This building in Taipei, Taiwan has the world’s fastest elevator. When you reach the top, the blood rushes to your head. Why?a. 1st lawb. 2nd lawc. 3rd law

20 points12. A (1st law)

40 points13. If you push both with equal force, which willaccelerate faster and why?

40 points13. The car, because it has less mass.

20 points14. If you push both with equal force, the car will accelerate faster. Which law of motion is this?a. 1st lawb. 2nd lawc. 3rd law

20 points14. B (2nd law)
