Interaction of Forces Examples and Explanations
For this point collection assignment, you will be choosing 2 different scenarios from the list below (four options) and describing the forces acting on the objects in each.

(If you have your own scenario you would like to use, please just check with me and I am sure we can make that work.)
You can offer your explanation in any method you would like or Drawing vector diagrams
⦁ Select two scenarios.
⦁ MAGNITUDE and DIRECTION of forces acting on the objects is correctly shown in a vector diagram or explained.

SCENARIOS (PICK TWO) (pictures provided for your reference and to help you visualize the scenario):
The picture of the electromagnet shows that the upward force the electromagnet is exerting on the car has the same magnitude as the force of the car’s weight downward. The forces are balanced, so the car remains suspended where it is. Draw a force diagram to illustrate this action.

⦁ Imagine a skydiver whose weight is twice as much as air resistance (which creates friction). Draw a force diagram to illustrate this action.

⦁ Imagine a boat moving through water. The friction from the water is one-half of the forward force. Because the force is unbalanced, the boat is speeding up. Draw a force diagram to illustrate this action.

⦁ A rocket accelerates through space as the fuel is combusted and expelled out of the bottom of the rocket.
