2.You study two objects in motion, Object J and Object S. Each object has its own velocity graph, with same time and velocity scales. The slope of each graph is positive, upward and to the right ⁄ but Object J's tilt angle is only 10º and Object S's tilt angle is quite steep, 85º. Which statement below is unquestionably correct?
Hint: make two careful sketches on your scratch paper.
Group of answer choices
Object J gains a smaller amount of speed per second than S.
Object S is moving to the right.
Object S is moving at higher speed than Object J.
Object J is moving to the left.

4. As the first actions in a basic study of motion in two dimensions, a scientist must set up a coordinate system and decide on ________.
Group of answer choices
whether to follow Galileo or Aristotle
an appropriate distance scale, meters vs. light years vs. nanometers
the best strategy to use, mathematics vs. music vs. pure logic.
which came first, the chicken or the egg
5.An object with increasing acceleration, like the one we studied in lecture, does not in itelf, provide a true distance rectangle or distance triangle on its velocity graph. However, the area under the graph can be calculated, like in the film "Hidden Figures," by using
Group of answer choices
the principle of the tortoise and the hare, i.e., average speed.
circular or parabolic arcs, just as the famous Euler Method uses.
Euler's Method, which Katherine Johnson invented.
many narrow trapezoids made of a rectangle and a triangle.
6.We say that the changes in velocity of the two skateboarders are unequal in size when
Group of answer choices
their Δv vectors are equal in size and the same direction.
their masses are not the same.
Newton’s third law says their interaction forces are the same size.
the time formula, d = (1/2)gt2, is reversible.

Group of answer choices
neither
both equal in size and opposite in direction
equal in size
opposite directions
8. Geosynchronous communication satellites orbit Earth every 24 hours, and they all orbit at the same altitude.
9.
You observe a coin at position x1 with velocity v1 = 1.6 m/sec away from you, moving toward point x2 on the x-axis, as shown.
The coin's mass is m = 0.005 kg.
There is a friction force of size f = 0.021 N that acts on it.
Calculate the stopping acceleration on the coin.
