NEWTON'S SECOND LAW
LOGIC PUZZLE
Jed, Michael, Mehal, Sylvia, and Kinjal attend MR. RAMOS' Physics class. Working as a group during their LAB,
they were provided 5 carts of different masses. They each apply a different amount of force to the carts, resulting
in different accelerations. However, they did not label their data table and are now trying to backtrack and
identify all of their data.
YOUR TASK:
Using your understanding of Newton's Second Law
and the clues provided, help each student determine the
mass of their cart, the acceleration of their cart, and
the force they each gave to their cart.
WHAT THE STUDENTS KNOW:
The carts had masses of 6 kg, 4.5 kg, 9 kg, 10 kg and 12 kg; and
accelerations of 5 m/s², 3 m/s?, 2 m/s², 4 m/s², and 2.5 m/s².
CLUES:
1. Mehal applies the least amount of force.
2. Kinjal's force was greater than 27 N.
3. Michael's cart's mass is neither the smallest nor the largest.
4. The mass of Jed's cart is greater than Kinjal's.
5. Michael applied more than 30N of force.
6. Jed applies the greatest amount of force.

7. Michael's cart has 50% more mass than Sylvia's.
8. Sylvia's acceleration was half of Jed's.
9. Michael's acceleration was twice as much as Mehal's.
10. The force Michael applied to his cart is greater than Kinjal's.
11. Kinjal's acceleration was greater than Sylvia's.
12. Sylvia's applied force was half of Kinjal's.
