Two objects accelerate at 1 m/s2. How do the applied forces compare? A. They are different B. They are the same C. I can't tell without the mass For a given object, which force due to friction is typically larger? A. They are different B. Kinetic friction C. Static friction D.

a. An object that is free-falling is acted upon by the force of gravity alone. b. A falling skydiver which has reached terminal velocity is considered to be in a state offree fall. c. A ball is thrown upwards and is rising towards its peak. As it rises upwards, it is NOT considered to be in a state offree fall d. An object in free fall experiences an acceleration which is independent of the mass of the object. e. A ball is thrown upwards, rises to its peak and eventually falls back to the original height. As the ball rises, its acceleration is upwards; as it falls, its acceleration is downwards. f. A ball is thrown upwards, rises to its peak and eventually falls back to the original height. The speed at which it is launched equals the speed at which it lands. (Assume negligible air resistance.) g. A very massive object will free fall at the same rate of acceleration as a less massive object.
Three boxes in contact slide side-by-side on a smooth, friction-less, horizontal floor. Their masses are 5.0-kg, 3.0-kg, and 2.0-kg, with the 3.0-kg box in the center.

What magnitude force does the 3.0-kg box exert on the 5.0-kg box? C. What magnitude force does the 3.0-kg box exert on the 2.0-kg box?
