let's tackle these questions! 2.1.1 Force is a push or a pull that can cause an object to accelerate, change its direction, or deform. 2.1.2 Two effects that a force can have on an object are: It can change the speed* of the object (make it start moving, speed up, or slow down). It can change the direction* of motion of the object. 2.2.1 From the graph, as the force applied to the trolley increases, the distance travelled by the trolley also increases. 2.2.2 Step 1: Observe the pattern in the graph. For every 10 N increase in force, the distance travelled increases by approximately 1.5 m. 10 N 1.5 m 20 N 3.0 m 30 N 4.5 m 40 N 6.0 m Step 2: Predict the distance for 50 N. Following the pattern, for a force of 50 N (which is 10 N more than 40 N), the distance travelled will be: 6.0 m + 1.5 m = 7.5 m 2.2.3 Increasing the force changes the motion of the trolley because, according to Newton's Second Law of Motion (F = ma), a larger net force applied to an object of constant mass results in a greater acceleration. This increased acceleration means the trolley's velocity changes more rapidly, causing it to cover a greater distance in the same amount of time. What's next? Send 'em!
