A nonzero net force acts on a moving ball, and the ball comes to a stop. Which statement is correct about the relationship between the net force and the ball's movement?(1 point)
Responses

The net force causes an increase in acceleration because without the force the ball's velocity would remain the same.
The net force causes an increase in acceleration because without the force the ball's velocity would remain the same.

The net force causes a decrease in acceleration because without the force the ball's velocity would remain the same.
The net force causes a decrease in acceleration because without the force the ball's velocity would remain the same.

An increase in acceleration causes the net force to be nonzero because causation works in both directions.
An increase in acceleration causes the net force to be nonzero because causation works in both directions.

A decrease in acceleration causes the net force to be nonzero because causation works in both directions.

A student places five books next to each other on their ends. She then pushes the first book with her finger, and a few seconds later, the last book falls. Which statement is correct about this chain of events?(1 point)
Responses

The force of the finger causes the books to accelerate and fall.
The force of the finger causes the books to accelerate and fall.

There is causation between the force of the finger and the number of books.
There is causation between the force of the finger and the number of books.

The acceleration of the books as they fall causes the force of the finger.
The acceleration of the books as they fall causes the force of the finger.

There is a positive correlation between the force of the finger and number of books.

Answer 1

Here are the correct answers to each question based on the principles of physics:

1. Regarding the dominos:

   • Answer: An increase in force caused an increase in acceleration.

2. Regarding raindrops falling:

   • Answer: The force of gravity causes the raindrops to accelerate.

3. Regarding mass and acceleration:

   • Answer: There is a negative correlation between mass and acceleration.

4. Regarding the moving ball coming to a stop:

   • Answer: The net force causes a decrease in acceleration because without the force the ball's velocity would remain the same.

5. Regarding the books and the force of the finger:

   • Answer: The force of the finger causes the books to accelerate and fall.
