If you exert a force F on an object, the force which the object exerts on you will

  A A 0.140-kg baseball traveling 35.0 m/s strikes the catcher’s mitt, which, in bringing the ball to rest, recoils backward 11.0 cm. What was the average force applied by the ball on the glove?  

A wheel accelerates with a constant angular acceleration of 4.5 rad/s2.  If the initial angular velocity is 1.0 rad/s, what is the angle the wheel rotates through in 2.0 s?

A constant force of 8.0 N is exerted for 4.0 s on a 16-kg object initially at rest. The speed of this object will be:

What is the gravitational force on a 70-kg person standing on the Earth, due to the Moon?  The mass of the Moon is 7.36 × 1022 kg and the distance to the Moon is 3.82 × 108 m. G = 6.67 x 10-11 N m2/ Kg2   

A wheel accelerates with a constant angular acceleration of 4.5 rad/s2.  If the initial angular velocity is 1.0 rad/s, what is the angular velocity at t = 2.0 s?

Starting from rest, a 4.0-kg body reaches a speed of 8.0 m/s in 2.0 s. What is the net force acting on the body?

A boy and a girl are riding on a merry-go-round which is turning at a constant rate.  The boy is near the outer edge, and the girl is closer to the center.  Who has the greater angular displacement?

A block is released from rest at point P and slides along the frictionless track shown. At point P, its mechanical energy  is:

The outer shell electrons in metals are not tightly bound to the nuclei of their atoms. They are free to roam throughout the material, moving from atom to atom. These materials are good ____.
