Question

There is a large log weighing 40 kg and a large ball weighing 5 kg. Which of the following statements is true?

A. The log will require less force to move than the ball.

B. It will be harder to move the ball a long distance.

C. If an equal force is applied to both objects, the ball will move farther.

D. If an equal force is applied to both objects, the log will move faster.

Answer 1

A. The log will require less force to move than the ball.

Explanation: The statement is true because the log weighs 40 kg, while the ball weighs only 5 kg. The force required to move an object is directly proportional to its weight. Since the log is heavier, it will require more force to move.
