Hey there!
Alright, it looks like you've got the second question on the top right, but I can't figure out the answer you've got for the first.
Using Newton's Second Law Of Motion, we have:
F = ma
We plug in our values:
F = 5(1)
That would give us 5 Newtons of force.
For the last one:
Even if two balls are given the same acceleration, the determining factor is <em>weight.</em> If a ball is lighter, it needs less acceleration to go faster. If it's larger, it needs more to make it go at that same speed. That's why that 5 newtons makes sense because it's 5 kilograms as opposed to 0.6 kilograms. It's heavier, and needs more force.
Hope this helped!

Reason: Inertia is the state of a body which needs a force to come into the act of motion.
The more massive the object is the more is its inertia.
We can compare the two by their kinetic energies. The kinetic energy is the energy when an object
is in motion. It is expressed as the product of the mass of the object and the
square of the velocity divided by two. We assume a velocity of 1 m/s for this problem.<span>
KE = mv^2/2
KE1 = 10 (1)^2
KE1 = 10 J
KE2 = 1(1)^2
KE2 = 1 J
Therefore, c</span><span>ompared to the 10 kg ball, the 1 kg ball has lesser kinetic energy.</span>
Answer:
B. positive; negative.
Explanation:
From the viewpoint of Principle of Energy Conservation and Work-Energy Theorem, we notice that gravity represents a conservative force, associated with gravitational potential energy, whereas air resistance is a non-conservative force, associated with dissipated work. Therefore, the work done by gravity is positive and work done by air resistance is negative. Therefore, the correct answer is B.
