                                                 Subject- Physics
                                             Ch- Force and Pressure
                                Subtopic- Balanced and Unbalanced Force


             1      Assertion: A car stops when brakes are applied.                                      1
                    Reason: An unbalanced force can change the direction of motion.
             2                                                                                           1


















                    In Figure, two boys A and B are shown applying force on a block. If the block
                    moves towards the right, which one of the following statements is correct?
                               (a) Magnitude of force applied by A is greater than that of B.
                               (b) Magnitude of force applied by A is smaller than that of B.
                               (c) Net force on the block is towards A.
                               (d) Magnitude of force applied by A is equal to that of B.

             3      When  two  forces  applied  on  an  object  are  equal  and  opposite,  then  these  1
                    forces
                    (a)may move the object
                    (b)may stop the object
                    (c)may move the object and also change its shape
                    (d)do not movethe object but may change its shape.
             4      When two forces act in opposite directions, then net force acting is _______.        1

                                  (a) sum of two forces
                                  (b) difference between two forces
                                  (c) both of these
                                  (d) none of these
             5      Give one example of each balanced and unbalanced force.                              2
             6      Give reason:                                                                         1
                    When we push the wall of the classroom, the wall does not move.
             7        Team A                                                            Team B           5
