10 Questions
Which branch of physics is related to the study of motion of objects?
Mechanics
What is the Greek word from which the word 'kinematics' is derived?
Kinema
What is the definition of rest?
The state of being stationary
What is the definition of motion?
The state of continuous change
What does kinematics deal with?
The study of motion of objects without reference to the force causing it
Match the following terms with their definitions:
Mechanics = The branch of physics related to the study of motion of objects Kinematics = The branch of Mechanics that deals with motion of objects without reference of force which causes motion Rest = A state where an object does not change its position with respect to its surroundings Motion = A state where an object's position is continuously changing with respect to its surroundings
Match the following Greek words with their English translations:
Kinema = Motion Dynamics = Not mentioned in the text Rest = Not a Greek word Motion = Not a Greek word
Match the following scenarios with their descriptions:
Train at the platform = A state of rest as it does not change its position with respect to its surroundings Train moving = A state of motion as its position is continuously changing with respect to its surroundings Car surrounded by trees = A state of rest with respect to the trees and bushes around it Book on a table = A state of rest
Match the following branches of Mechanics with their descriptions:
Kinematics = Deals with motion of objects without reference of force which causes motion Dynamics = Not mentioned in the text Mechanics = Related to the study of motion of objects Rest and Motion = Two states that objects can be in
Match the following objects with their states:
Train at the platform = Rest Train moving = Motion Car surrounded by trees = Rest Book on a table = Rest
