MOVEMENT OF OBJECTS

A cyclist moves at a constant speed of 5mi/h in the Northern direction. Are the

forces acting on the cyclist balanced or unbalanced while she’s traveling at a constant speed in the northern direction?

Remember, unbalanced forces always cause a change in speed or direction.

Forces of Motion Test

Gatoraides

If you will, add 500 points to your current point total.

If not, divide your current point total in half, because that’s what you’ll be doing to your test score. Back
