Sports Training and Athletics Questions

Multiple choice physics force and newton's laws of motion concept of inertia galileo's law and inertia mass and inertia

Why athletes stop themselves before the line marked for javelin throw

  1. Due to inertia of rest

  2. Due to inertia of motion

  3. Due to inertia of direction

  4. All
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation

Due to inertia of motion, an object do not stop all of a sudden rather it continues to move over some distance. Hence the athletes stop themselves much before line marked so that they come to rest before crossing that line, otherwise it is said to be a foul.

  1. Trailers

  2. Stolon

  3. Offset

  4. Sucker
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation

Multiple choice zoology skeleton and movements disorders of musculoskeletal system disorders of muscle and skeleton joints and movements

Sprain is due to outstretching/pulling of

  1. Muscles

  2. Tendons

  3. Ligaments

  4. Nerves
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation

A sprain is a stretching or tearing of ligaments which are the tough bands of fibrous tissue that connect two bones together in the joints. A sprain results in an overstretch or tear of the ligaments supporting that joint. 

So, the correct answer is 'ligaments'.

Multiple choice physics energy : forms and sources concept of energy energy for everything forms of energy

The capacity of a body to do work is called ______ .

  1. Stamina

  2. Potential

  3. Velocity

  4. Energy
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
D Correct answer
Explanation

Energy is the capacity of a physical system to perform work. Energy exists in several forms such as heat energy, kinetic or mechanical energy, light energy, potential energy, electrical energy, or other forms. According to the law of conservation of energy the total energy of a system remains constant, though energy may transform into another form.
The SI unit of energy is the joule (J) or newton-meter (N-m). Joule is also the SI unit of work.

Multiple choice

Chcesz pożyczyć rower kolegi. Jak o to poprosisz?

  1. I'd like a bike!

  2. Can I borrow the bike?

  3. This bike is great!

  4. Is your bike fast?
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation

To ask for permission to borrow something, 'Can I borrow...?' is the standard polite structure. The other options are statements or unrelated questions.

Multiple choice physics types of energy renewable and non-renewable resources renewable and non-renewable sources of energy substances, objects and energy

Which of the following has both kinetic energy and potential energy ?

  1. A flying bird

  2. A bent bow about to shoot an arrow

  3. An athlete running at full speed

  4. None of the above
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

Since the bird is flying is must be at some distance from the ground and Potential energy is present when there is some height associated with that object (Since P.E = mgh). Also  the bird has mass and thus gravity will be acted on it. Kinetic energy is present for an object if it has velocity.This a flying bird has both kinetic energy and potential energy.

Multiple choice evs let's clean together cleanliness who will do this work? personal and public cleanliness

Identify the aerobic exercise.

  1. Jogging

  2. Swimming

  3. Yoga

  4. All of the above
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
D Correct answer
Explanation
  • Aerobic exercise is any type of cardiovascular conditioning. 
  • It can include activities like brisk walking, jogging, swimming, running, cycling or yoga.
  •  By definition, aerobic exercise means “with oxygen.” Your breathing and heart rate will increase during aerobic activities. 
  • Hence, the aerobic exercise is Jogging, Swimming and Yoga. 
  • So, the correct answer is 'All of the above'.
Multiple choice evs let's clean together cleanliness who will do this work? personal and public cleanliness

Multiple choice biology our skeletal system and the skin bones and movements joints in the human body joints

Which of the following is likely to have the strongest leg bone?

  1. Jockey

  2. Swimmer

  3. Weight lifter

  4. Golfer
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation

The femur, or thigh bone, is the longest, heaviest and strongest bone in the entire human body and helps support all the body's weight. The weight lifter will therefore have the strongest leg bones.

Therefore, the correct answer is option C.

Multiple choice physics rotational motion of a rigid body and moment of inertia angular momentum (l) and conservation of angular momentum angular momentum in case of rotation about a fixed axis law of conservation of angular momentum

A swimmer while jumping into water from a height easily forms a loop in air, if

  1. He pulls his arms and leg in

  2. He spreads legs and his arms

  3. He keeps himself straight

  4. His body is so formed
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

by pulling his arms and legs in he decreases his moment of inertia, thereby increasing his angular velocity using the principle of conservation of angular momentum.

Multiple choice physics force and newton's laws momentum (p) introduction to momentum linear momentum

A long-jumper runs before jumping to 

  1. Cover greater distance

  2. Maintain momentum conservation

  3. Gain energy by running

  4. Gain momentum
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
D Correct answer
Explanation

While running a long distance, jumper tries to gain more velocity that increases his momentum. When he jumps, due this momentum, his body covers longer distance.

So, Option D is correct.
