FORCE WORK AND ENERGY MCQs

Total Questions : 40 | Page 2 of 4 pages
Question 11. A wheelbarrow on top of a hill possesses ______ energy.
  1.    potential
  2.    magnetic
  3.    gravitational
  4.    kinetic
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option A. -> potential
:
A
Potential energy is the energy possessed by a body due to it's position. For example, if a wheelbarrow is placed on top of a hill, then it possesses potential energy.
Question 12. In which of the following situations is more work done?
  1.    Carrying a bag for 3 km
  2.    Carrying a bag for 10 km
  3.    Carrying a bag for 9 km
  4.    Carrying a bag for 6 km
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> Carrying a bag for 10 km
:
B
The work done is directly proportional to the displacement. Hence, the work done will be maximumwhen a bag is carried for 10 km.
Question 13. What would happen if there were no gravity on earth?
  1.    Everything would sink into the ocean.
  2.    An object would never return if thrown up.
  3.    We won't be able to throw any object.
  4.    Everything would break.
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> An object would never return if thrown up.
:
B
The gravitational force of Earth keeps everything binded on the surface. If we throw any object in the absence of gravity, it would fly-off forever.
Question 14. Force is defined as a ___ or ____ that can cause an object to move, remain in place or change its shape.
  1.    attraction, repulsion
  2.    push, pull
  3.    squeeze, pull
  4.    spring, break
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> push, pull
:
B
A force is defined as a push orpull that can cause an object to move, remain in place orchange its shape.
Question 15. When a force causes displacement of an object, ___ is done.
  1.    gravity
  2.    speed
  3.    energy
  4.    work
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option D. -> work
:
D
Work is said to be done when a force applied on an object moves that object. Work is calculated by multiplying the force applied onthe object to the movement or displacement of the object.
Question 16. What are the two main types of forces?
  1.    Melting, Solid
  2.    Warm, Cold
  3.    Spring, Flow
  4.    Contact, Non-Contact
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option D. -> Contact, Non-Contact
:
D
The two main types of forces are contact and non-contact forces.
Question 17. The force of gravity pushes objects away from the centre of the Earth.
  1.    True
  2.    False
  3.    We won't be able to throw any object.
  4.    Everything would break.
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> False
:
B
The force of gravity pulls objects towards the centre of the Earth.
Question 18. A magnet attracting iron pins is an example of  ______.
  1.    gravitational force
  2.    magnetic force
  3.    metallic force
  4.    upward pull
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> magnetic force
:
B
A magnet attracting iron pins is an example of magnetic force.
Question 19. A moving ball on the ground comes to a stop after some time because of ___.
  1.    speed
  2.    friction
  3.    motion
  4.    magnetism
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> friction
:
B
Friction always acts opposite to the motion. Hence, a moving ball on the ground comes to a stop after some time because of friction.
Question 20. If a ball is thrown up, after reaching a particular height it will come back due to:
  1.    Force of gravity
  2.    Magnetic force
  3.    Frictional force
  4.    Normal force
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option A. -> Force of gravity
:
A
Due to the gravitational force of Earth, every object is attracted towards the earth. Therefore the ball will be attracted towards the centre of the earth, so it will come back.If there was no gravity on Earth then the ball if thrown up, will never come back.
