Physics 1: Force and its Measurements

10 Questions

Match the following types of forces with their examples:

Contact forces = Applied Force

Match the following types of forces with their examples:

Action at a distance force (Non-Contact forces) = Spring Force

Match the following units of force measurement with their descriptions:

Newton = It is the force acting on an object of mass 1 kg to give acceleration 1 m/s^2 Force = It is measured using the standard metric unit (SI unit)

Match the following equations or definitions with their corresponding terms:

Force = Mass × Acceleration = Newton Newton = kg × m/s^2 = Standard metric unit for force measurement Force = Vector quantity with magnitude and direction Newton = The force acting on an object of mass 1 kg to give acceleration 1 m/s^2

Match the following solved problem components with their respective values:

Mass of the truck = 2000 kg Acceleration of the truck = -7 m/s^2 (deceleration) Force acting on the truck = -14000 N Resultant force affecting the truck = Not provided in the given information

Match the force measuring units with their appropriate quantity:

Newton (N) = Force Joule (J) = Work and energy Pascal (Pa) = Pressure Watt (W) = Power

Match the force description with the appropriate type of force:

Gravitational force = Force of attraction between two masses Centripetal force = Force that keeps an object moving in a circular path Friction force = Force that opposes the motion of an object Tension force = Force transmitted through a string, rope, or wire when it is pulled tight

Match the effect of force with its corresponding description:

Force can make a body at rest move = Force can change the direction of a moving body along with its shape and size Force can stop a moving body or slow it down = Force can accelerate the speed of a moving body Force can change the direction of a moving body along with its shape and size = Force can make a body at rest move Force can accelerate the speed of a moving body = Force can stop a moving body or slow it down

Match the following force concepts with their definitions:

External effect that affects the object and changes its state or direction = Concept of force An action which produces or tends to produce a change in a body’s state of rest or motion = Concept of force Interaction between an object and its environment resulting in a force upon each object = Introduction to force Forces existing as a result of interactions between objects = Introduction to force

Match the following statements about forces with their correct descriptions:

Forces only exist as a result of an interaction = When there is an interaction between two objects, there is a force upon each of the objects When the interaction vanishes, there is no force between the two objects = Forces describe the interactions between an object and its environment Forces describe the interactions between an object and its environment = When there is an interaction between two objects, there is a force upon each of the objects When there is an interaction between two objects, there is a force upon each of the objects = Forces only exist as a result of an interaction

This quiz covers the meaning of force and its measuring units, gravitational force, centripetal force, and friction force. It also provides an introduction to force, describing the interactions between objects and their environment.
