Find out correct statement :- unimportant for many practical purposes because (A) mass and weight both are constant the strength of gravity is very similar everywhere throughout universe. on the surface of the Earth. In such a constant (B) mass varies from planet to planet. gravitational field, the gravitational force exerted on an object (its weight) is directly proportional to (C) weight is measure in kg. its mass. So, if object A weighs, say, 10 times as (D)gravitational force increase in same much as object B, then the mass of object A is 10 proportion as mass of object increases. times that of object B. This means that an object's 3. Beam balance is used to measure :– mass can be measured indirectly by its weight. For (A) mass (B) weight example, when we buy a bag of sugar we can measure its weight (how hard it presses down on the scales) (C) both (A) & (B) (D) None of these and be sure that this will give a good indication of the quantity that we are actually interested in, which Comprehension/Passage (Q.4 to 6): is the mass of sugar in the bag. Nevertheless, slight All oscillatory motion are periodic but not every variations in the Earth's gravitational field do exist. periodic motion are oscillatory. These alter the relationship between weight and mass, and must be taken into account in high Simple harmonic motion is a special type of periodic precision weight measurement that are intended to motion in which the restoring force is directly indirectly measure mass. proportional to the displacement and is always The SI unit of mass is kg and that of weight is N. directed towards the mean position. Mass can be measured by a physical or a beam If the time period of a simple pendulum is two seconds, balance. Weight can be measured by a spring balance. then it is known as a second’s pendulum. 1. The mass of a body is measured to be 12 kg A wave can be described as a vibratory disturbance on earth.
