Students are going to conduct an experiment to study the effect of a net force applied to an object on the object’s motion. In each trial of the experiment, the students will apply a net force on the object. They also need to take two other measurements. What are the other quantities they should measure in each trial of the experiment?(1 point)

Answer 1

In the experiment to study the effect of a net force on an object's motion, the two other measurements the students should take in each trial, alongside the net force applied, are mass and acceleration.

This is because:

• By knowing the mass of the object and the net force applied (using Newton's second law, \( F = ma \)), the students can calculate the acceleration of the object.
• Measuring both mass and acceleration will allow for a comprehensive analysis of how the net force influences the motion of the object.

Thus, the correct response is mass and acceleration.
