Use the drawing below to answer the following question. 1 kg
10 kg
20 kg
50 kg
All of the boxes shown above can slide easily. Which box will move farthest if each is
struck with the same amount of force?
A.
the 1-kg box
B. the 10-kg box
C. the 20-kg box
D. the 50-kg box

A

Explanation:

Force =  mass x acceleration

if the force is constant for each of the boxes, the smaller a boxes mass the greater its acceleration while the force is applied

Therefore the smaller box will have a greater initial velocity and will slide the furthest before it stops.

the total distance that martina travels that day is

(distance from home to mom's office) plus (distance from mom's office to school)

plus (distance from school to library) plus (distance from library to friend's house)

plus (distance from friend's house to martina's house).

(we don't know what any of these distance actually is.)
