D Correct answer
Explanation

Force can also bring change in dimensions and all the above options are its examples.

Multiple choice physics along with motion what forces can do? force and it's unit force and its effects

Mark the correct option

  1. The state of motion of an object is described by its speed only

  2. Many a time application of force does not result in a change in the state of motion of an object.

  3. By sitting on a bicycle seat force is applies to the spring fixed to the seat of a bicycle

  4. All of the above

D Correct answer
Explanation

It is common experience that many a time application of force does not result in a change in the state of motion.For example,a heavy box may not move at all even if you apply the maximum force that you can exert.

Multiple choice physics along with motion what forces can do? force and it's unit force and its effects

Mass differs from weight in that :

  1. Weight is a force where as mass is not a force.

  2. The mass of an object is always more than its weight.

  3. Mass can be expressed only in the metric system.

  4. There is no difference.
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

Weight is gravitational force acting on body.

Mass is amount of matter the body contains.
Relation between weight and mass is
$ w = mg$
So, Option A is correct.

Multiple choice physics along with motion what forces can do? force and it's unit force and its effects

Four forces are acting on a body. If the body doesn't change its position or shape, the forces

  1. Must be of equal magnitude

  2. Must be parallel & opposite

  3. Must add up to zero when taken as vectors

  4. Must be in a single line and in same direction

C Correct answer
Explanation

Body does not move even if forces are applied, that means body is in equilibrium.

$ \sum \vec F = \vec 0 $
So, option C is correct.

Multiple choice physics along with motion what forces can do? force and it's unit force and its effects

When you and your friend push a table in opposite direction, it becomes difficult to move. This is because the net force becomes the difference of the two forces.

  1. True

  2. False
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

Whenever forces act on an object in opposite directions—like the book on the table—the net force is equal to the difference between the two forces. In other words, one force is subtracted from the other to calculate the net force. If the opposing forces are equal, or balanced, the net force is zero, as it is for the book.

Hence, the net force becomes the differences of the two forces.

Multiple choice physics along with motion what forces can do? force and it's unit force and its effects

Make the correct statement (s)

  1. Force in the same direction by addition.

  2. Force in opposite direction by subtraction

  3. Force in same direction by subtracting

  4. Force in opposite direction by addition
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A,B Correct answer
Explanation

If two forces act on an object in the same direction, the net force is equal to the sum of the two forces. This always results in a stronger force than either of the individual forces alone.

Whenever forces act on an object in opposite directions—like the book on the table—the net force is equal to the difference between the two forces. In other words, one force is subtracted from the other to calculate the net force. If the opposing forces are equal, or balanced, the net force is zero, as it is for the book.

Hence, force in the same direction by addition and force in opposite direction by subtraction
