The slope of a linear velocity-time graph tells us the of the object.

A. Speed
B. Acceleration

Brutus, the dog, is pulling a bone to the left with a force of 20 n. lassie, another dog, is pulling a bone to the right with a force of 18n. what is the net force? a. b. c.

Observations show that interstellar clouds can have almost any shape and

Visualize the problem and identify special cases first examine the problem by drawing a picture and visualizing the motion. apply newton's 2nd law, ∑f⃗ =ma⃗ , to each body in your mind. don't worry about which quantities are given. think about the forces on each body: how are these consistent with the direction of the acceleration for that body? can you think of any special cases that you can solve quickly now and use to test your understanding later? one special case in this problem is if m2=0, in which case block 1 would simply fall freely under the acceleration of gravity: a⃗ 1=−gj^.
