If your friend has ever driven, or ridden in, a car then you could explain acceleration in terms of moving away from a stoplight. If a car achieves a speed of 50 km/hr in 2 min, say, then its acceleration over than interval has been ~13.9 m/s in 120 s

or ~0.116 m.s-2. (For heaven's sake, check my arithmetic.)

What must you do to give the wagon containing both people the same acceleration as you gave the wagon when only your friend was in it?

You must exert the same force on the wagon with both people inside as you did with just your friend. This will give the wagon containing both people the same acceleration as the wagon with only your friend. The total mass of the wagon and both people must be considered when applying the force.


A sentence for negative acceleration?

Yes, negative acceleration is slowing down. Take the example of a car going from 0 to 60 mph this would be positive acceleration. If once it reaches 60 mph the foot is removed from the petal the car will continue to move but due to friction and wind resistance it will begin to slow down, while slowing down it is in negative acceleration.


Why does your friend appear to be at rest though the bus is moving?

Your friend appears to be at rest because they are in the same reference frame as the bus. Since they are moving at the same speed and direction as the bus, there is no relative motion between them and the bus, making it seem like they are at rest.


You spot a friend on a bus while on your way to school. Why does your friend appear to be at rest even though the bus is moving?

Your friend appears to be at rest because they are moving at the same speed as the bus. When inside a moving vehicle, all passengers and objects inside the vehicle are also moving at the same speed as the vehicle, so they appear to be at rest relative to each other.
