Choose an exit ticket

Prompt

4-point rubric

A small car collides head-on with a much heavier truck. During the collision, which vehicle exerts the greater force on the other? Explain your reasoning.

View reference answer & rubric

The car and truck exert forces of equal magnitude in opposite directions on each other at the same time. The forces act on different objects, so they do not cancel. The car can have a larger acceleration because its mass is smaller.

  • Equal magnitude
  • Opposite directions
  • Different objects
  • Mass vs. acceleration
