1 1. Which statement about the movement of an object with zero acceleration is true? The object must be at rest. The object must be slowing down. The object may be speeding up. The object may be in motion. 2. A rocket in space can travel without engine power at constant speed in the same direction. This condition is best explained by the concept of gravitation acceleration action-reaction inertia 3. If the mass of a moving object could be doubled, the inertia of the object would be halved unchanged doubled quadrupled 4. A copper coin resting on a piece of cardboard is placed on a beaker as shown in the diagram below. When the cardboard is rapidly removed, the coin drops into the beaker. The two properties of the coin which best explain its fall are its weight and its temperature volume electrical resistance inertia 5. A "push or pull" best describes the term work potential energy momentum force 6. Compared to 8 kilograms of feathers, 6 kilograms of lead has less mass and less inertia less mass and more inertia more mass and less inertia more mass and more inertia 7.
