Answer 1

Let's address each part of the question step by step:1. **The law of inertia states will eventually slow down and come to a complete stop if it travels far enough in the same direction.** - This statement is **false**. The law of inertia, which is Newton's First Law of Motion, states that an object in motion will remain in motion at a constant velocity unless acted upon by an external force. It does not state that an object will eventually slow down and stop on its own.2. **According to Newton's second law of motion, acceleration of an object depends upon the mass of the object and the net force acting on it.**3. **Match each term with its description:** - 8. A measure of the inertia of an object - **a. mass** - 9. Net force/Mass - **c. acceleration** - 10. Causes an object's velocity to change - **b. net force**4. **Is the following sentence true or false? The acceleration of an object is always in the same direction as the net force acting on the object.** - This statement is **true**. According to Newton's Second Law of Motion, the acceleration of an object is in the direction of the net force acting on it.5. **Is the following sentence true or false? If the same force acts upon two objects with different masses, the acceleration will be greater for the object with greater mass.** - This statement is **false**. According to Newton's Second Law of Motion,

, where

is the force,

is the mass, and

is the acceleration. For the same force, the object with the smaller mass will have a greater acceleration.6. **Write the formula used to calculate the weight of an object.** - The formula to calculate the weight (

) of an object is:

where

is the mass of the object and

is the acceleration due to gravity (approximately

on Earth).7. **Is the following sentence true or false? Because the weight formula shows that mass and weight are proportional, doubling the mass of an object will not affect its weight.** - This statement is **false**. Doubling the mass of an object will indeed double its weight because weight is directly proportional to mass.
