1. I conduct a Physics experiment on the moon and on Earth. In this experiment, I push on my 70 kg partner who is standing on a frictionless, horizontal floor (of course) with 100 N of force parallel to the ground. (a) What is his acceleration on Earth? (b) How would the result change when I conduct it on the moon? Explain/show. 2. I am crouched down at rest near the surface of the Earth. I then spring upward as hard as I can. While springing upward, what is the relationship between the normal force applied to me from the floor and the gravitational force exerted on me by the Earth? Explain why this must be so.

A 20.0 kg block is projected up an inclined slope by a force of 1250N acting on the block over a distance of 25cm. The block comes to a standstill as it reaches the top. The slope is inclined at 15° and the coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the slope is 0.400. Draw a before-and-after pictorial representation (before being released and at rest at top of а. slope).
