Force and Acceleration Question

AI Thread Summary
The discussion revolves around a homework question related to force and acceleration, specifically focusing on question 5. Participants clarify that the acceleration of a falling object cannot exceed the acceleration due to gravity (g), regardless of the object's mass. There is an emphasis on the interdependence of the questions, particularly between the second and third questions. The conversation also includes a request for further assistance with additional questions. Overall, the key takeaway is the understanding that acceleration is limited by gravitational forces.

They all look right except for question 5. Explain your reasoning.
 
cannot comment on third question without second question. so attach it
 
reconsider the fifth question
 
question 2 attached

With question 5, i thought it could be anything depending on the mass of the object falling

OH is it between zero and g?

Yeah, see the cartoon below question 2...:wink: It can not accelerate greater than g no matter how much mass it has.
 
ohh okay. thanks!

if you have some time, i have a few more attached
