Bethel Physics 6 Applying Newton's Laws

Aligning an axis of the coordinate system with an inclined plane makes the problem easier to solve

the force resisting movement between two objects trying to slide past each other

An ideal pulley contains a wheel and an axle that are both massless and frictionless

Only one type of friction must be considered in any type of physics problem

the force on an object when in contact with a surface that acts perpendicular to the surface

In a free-body diagram, forces that a system is exerting are not shown

What force causes the acceleration of an object down a frictionless inclined plane?

the force that opposes the motion of 2 objects sliding past each other

When solving physics problems, we must orient the x-axis horizontally and the y-axis vertically

A rock is accelerated upward using an ideal string. Which statement about the tension in the string is true?

An ideal string acting on a block

Friction on an object sliding down an inclined plane is independent of the object's weight

the pull force exerted by a string or cable

In tug of war, 2 teams pull on an ideal string with a force of 1000 N. If the rope does not move, the tension is

the normal force exerted on an object accelerating in the vertical direction
