Questions and Answers

According to the text, when an object moves with a constant velocity, what can we conclude about the forces acting on it?

  • It has a very large inertia.
  • There are no forces acting on it.
  • There is no unbalanced (net) force acting on it. (correct)
  • It is moving toward its natural place.

What kind of motion does a constant, non-zero net force produce on an object of constant mass?

  • Constant speed
  • Constant acceleration (correct)
  • Increasing acceleration
  • It depends on the speed of the object.

In the given text, which law of motion states that forces always come in pairs, are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction, and act on different objects?

  • Newton's first law
  • Newton's law of universal gravitation
  • Newton's second law
  • Newton's third law (correct)
