Question

#1 Two horizontal forces act on a wagon, 550 N forward and 400 N backward. What is the net force ___________ N? (include the sign) ______________________________________________________________________________________________ #2 Suppose that a bullet is fired from a rifle in outer space where there are no appreciable forces due to gravity or air resistance acting on the bullet. Will the bullet slow down as it travels away from the rifle? Explain. (Select all that apply.) a) Yes, the bullet will eventually lose all of its energy, slow down, and eventually stop. b) The bullet's motion could be disturbed if something interacts with it. c) No, the bullet will continue to accelerate until acted upon by another force. d) No, without any other force to change its motion, the bullet will continue moving undisturbed.

Explanation / Answer

150 forward c
