A puck is resting on the floor of a large moving van. Assume that the floor of the van is frictionless. The van and the puck are initially at rest, then the van undergoes a positive uniform acceleration.
A.) The puck will move forward with respect to the ground. (True or False)
B.) The acceleration of the puck with respect to the ground is (greater than, equal to, or less than) the acceleration of the van with respect to the ground.
C.) The magnitude of the acceleration of the puck with respect to the van is (equal to, less than, or greater than) the magnitude of the van's acceleration with respect to the ground.
D.) The puck will move toward the back of the van. (True or False)
E.) If the van turns to the right, the puck will hit the left wall. (True or False)
F.) The puck is stationary with respect to the van during this acceleration. (True or False)
Thank you!
