Question: When a net force is applied to a box to the right, the box accelerates to the right. The displacement is to the right. When an object is moving in uniform circular motion, a net force is applied toward the center of the circle and the object accelerates toward the center. However, it never gets any closer to the center. Why?

According to newton's second law, when the same force is applied to two objects of different masses, a the object with greater mass will experience a great acceleration, and the object with less mass will experience an even greater acceleration, b. the object with greater mass will experience a smaller acceleration, and the object with less mass will experience a greater acceleration, c. the object with greater mass will experience a greater acceleration, and the object with less mass will experience a smaller acceleration, d. the object with greater mass will experience a small acceleration, and the object with less mass will experience an even smaller acceleration.

Imagine you work as a consultant, and your daily job involves listening to the constructive criticism of others. as part of your job, you must listen to opposing viewpoints to make important decisions. in this activity, you are a consulting dam engineer. you must make a decision about four different dams; should they be repaired, taken down, or left alone? you will listen to contrasting opinions about what should be done with the dams before you make the final decision. as the consulting dam engineer, what do you decide to do with this dam? explain your reasoning. by making your decision, did you support the opinions of the mayor and/or the dam safety official? why or why not?

Chameleons catch insects with their tongues, which they can rapidly extend to great lengths. in a typical strike, the chameleon's tongue accelerates at a remarkable 220 m/s2 for 20 ms, then travels at constant speed for another 30 ms.
