Forces that Change Motion
==========================
Hey there! Lets begin!
1. Which of the following best describes the sum of all forces acting on an object?
- Net force, which is a vector sum.

2. Suppose a man is sitting on a chair and exerting 100 N of force downward, while a spring beneath the chair exerts 150 N of force upward. If you assign a negative value to the downward force, what is the net force of this system?

3. During a game of pool, a cue ball travels to the left with 70 N of force and collides with the four ball moving with a force of 50 N to the right. If you assign a negative value to the force moving to the right, what is the net force of this system?

4. Recall that the formula for momentum is:
P=mv
Which of the following correctly shows momentum being calculated?
- 45 kg * m/s = (9 kg)(5 m/s)
