  1. Consider two cars of different masses, with the mass of car 1 greater than the mass of car 2. Both cars start at rest, and both experience the same force F and travel the same distance. Which one of the following statements is FALSE?

  2. Car 1 has a smaller kinetic energy than car 2

    The final speed of car 1 is slower than car 2.

    Both cars experience the same work.

    Car 1 experiences a smaller average acceleration than car 2.

    Car 1 takes a longer time to travel the same distance as car 2.

can you please explain why as well? thank you so much!

Two cars start from rest at a red stop light. When the light turns green, both cars accelerate forward. The blue car accelerates uniformly at a rate of 5.1 m/s2 for 4.3 seconds. It then continues at a constant speed for 11.9 seconds, before applying the brakes such that the car’s speed decreases uniformly coming to rest 361.87 meters from where it started. The yellow car accelerates uniformly for the entire distance, finally catching the blue car just as the...
