Question 2.
2.1
a. The ratio of the frictional force that resists the motion of the object and the normal force that maintains contact
between an object and a surface.
b. An elastic collision is a collision in which the total kinetic energy of the colliding bodies after collision is equal to
their total kinetic energy before collision.
c. It states that when a net external force acts on a body, its impulse is equal to the change in momentum of the
body.
d. It states that every object will remain at rest or in uniform motion in a straight line unless compelled to change its
state by the action of a net external force.
e. Any two objects exert a force on each other, which is directly proportional to the product of their masses and indirectly
proportional to the square of the distance between them.

a. normal = weight = mg = 10 x 9.8 = 98 N
b. normal = mg + ma = 98 + 10 x 2.5 = 123 N

3.3.
a. v = u + at gives v = 0 + 6 x 4 = 24 ms-1
b. when they meet they will have travelled the same distance, d along the main speedway in the
same time , t, therefore, equating the distances, d1 = 70 x t d2 = 24 t + x 6 x t2 giving t = 15.33s
c. distance = 70 x t = 70 x 15.33 = 1073.33 m
