  1. Question 1

    What is a force commonly described as?

    • AA push or a pull
    • BA type of energy
    • CA measure of temperature
    • DA measure of mass
    Show answer

    Answer: A

    The textbook describes force as a push or a pull that can start stop or change velocity.

  2. Question 2

    What can a force do to the velocity of a body?

    • AChange its magnitude or direction
    • BChange only its mass
    • CAlways make it zero
    • DOnly increase its temperature
    Show answer

    Answer: A

    The textbook states that a force can change the magnitude or direction of velocity.

  3. Question 3

    According to the chapter what is always present when acceleration occurs?

    • AA force
    • BAn increase in mass
    • CA decrease in distance
    • DAn increase in temperature
    Show answer

    Answer: A

    The text explains that a force is present to cause acceleration.

  4. Question 4

    What is a contact force?

    • AA force exerted when objects are in physical contact
    • BA force that acts only between distant objects
    • CA force that acts only in space
    • DA force that has no direction
    Show answer

    Answer: A

    A contact force is exerted by one object on another at the point of contact.

  5. Question 5

    Which of the following is a contact force according to the text?

    • AGravitational force
    • BFriction
    • CElectrostatic force
    • DMagnetic force
    Show answer

    Answer: B

    Friction acts between surfaces in contact.
