Question 31.


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.


Question 32.


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 33.


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 34.


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 35.


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 36.


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 on the object to the movement or displacement of the object.


Question 37.


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 38.


A ball is kept on an inclined plane. The ball is not moving due to:


  1.     magnetic force
  2.     electrostatic force 
  3.     gravity
  4.     friction
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option D. -> friction
:
D

The ball is not moving and remains motionless due to the force of friction as friction opposes the motion.


Question 39.


The capacity to do work is called ____.


  1.     motion
  2.     energy
  3.     speed
  4.     distance
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> energy
:
B

Energy is the capacity to work. 


Question 40.


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 or pull that can cause an object to move, remain in place or change its shape.
