22. A car is moving on a road at 70 km/hrgoing due north, and then changesdirection and starts traveling northeaststaying at 70 km/hr. Decide if the following statements are true or false regarding what happens to the car’sspeed and velocity?

A The speed of the car changes, but thevelocity stays the same.

B The velocity of the car changes, butthe speed stays the same.

C Both the speed and velocity of the carchange.

D Neither the speed nor the velocity ofthe car changes.

E. The speed of the car changes but there is no velocity.

23. Put an A, B, C, D or E in the correct section of the Venn diagram to the right the matches the description below.

A shows how fast an object is going

B shows the direction of an object

C shows change in speed

D shows change in direction

E shows the distance traveled over time.

24. Newton’s first law most directly addresses (has to do with) ______. (Hint: it starts with an “i”)

25. The greater the mass of an object, the ______the inertia. (more or less?)

28. A runner has a mass of 84 kg. He produces a force of 12 Newtons between the ground and his running shoes. How fast does he accelerate?

29. You are riding fast on a skateboard when your wheel suddenly gets stuck in a crack on the sidewalk. Why does your body go flying forward?

a. there is a balanced force pushing you off your skateboard

b. your friend secretly tripped you

c. your inertia keeps you moving forward

d. the skateboard gained friction as the speed increased

e. someone pushed you

f. the lack of friction between the skateboard and sidewalk caused you to fly forward.
