Chap2 National Book Foundation 9th Class Conceptual Questions

This document contains questions about concepts in mechanics including motion, forces, and equilibrium. Some key points addressed include: - The types of motion an object on a big wheel and its riders experience. - Situations where an object's displacement is zero but its distance covered is not, like moving back and forth in the same location. - How forces like acceleration can be applied in different directions than an object's motion. - Using graphs like distance-time and velocity-time to determine properties of an object's motion. - Explaining phenomena like why passengers feel a force away from the center of a turning car through Newton's laws of motion. - The factors that determine an

Chap 2

1. In a park, children are enjoying a ride on big wheel. What kind of motion the big wheel has
and what kind of motion the riders have?
2. A boy moves for some time. Give two situations in which his displacement is zero but covered
distance is not zero.
3. A stone tied to a string is whirling in circle, what is direction of its velocity at any instant?
4. Is it possible to accelerate an object without speeding it up or slowing it down?
5. Can a car moving towards right have direction of acceleration towards left?
6. With the help of daily life examples, tell the situations in which:
a. Acceleration is in the direction of motion.
b. Acceleration is against the direction of motion.
c. Acceleration is zero and the body is in motion.
7. Examine distance time graph of a motorcyclist, what does the graph tell us about the speed of
the motorcyclist? Plot the velocity-time graph for it.

8. Which controls in the car can produce acceleration or deceleration in it?


9. If two stones of 10 kg and 1 kg are dropped from a 1km high tower. Which will hit the ground
with greater velocity? Which will hit the ground first? (Neglect air resistance)
10. A 1 kg steel ball is dropped from rest and another is thrown downward with velocity of 5 m/s,
which will have greater acceleration? (neglect air resistance)

Chap 3

1. When a motorcyclist hits a stationary car, he may fly off the motor cycle and the driver in the
car may get a neck injury. Explain.
2. In autumn, when you shake a branch, the leaves get detached. Why does this happen?
3. When a car takes a turn, the passengers experience a force acting on them away from the
center of curve, why?
4. Why is not safe to apply brakes only on the front wheel of the bicycle?
5. Deduce Newton’s first law of motion from Newton’s second law of motion.
6. Action and reaction are equal but opposite in direction. These forces always act in pair. Do they
balance each other? Can bodies move under action-reaction pair?
7. A man slips on the oily floor, he wants to move out of this area. He is alone. He throws his bag
to move out of this area. How can this act help him?
8. How would you use Newton’s 3rd law of motion and law of conservation of momentum to
explain motion of rockets?
9. Why are batsman gloves padded with foam?
10. While walking on ice, one should take small steps to avoid slipping. Why?
11. Why is it dangerous to drive on wet roads?
12. Why tyres of vehicles are wrapped with chains during snow in Murree hill areas?
13. Centripetal force acting on a car moving at a round about is 200N. If the velocity of the car is
doubled, then what will be centripetal force acting on the car?
14. Your car is stuck in mud, two men sit on the bonnet of your car. This helps you take your car
out of the mud. How sitting of men on car’s bonnet did help you?

Chap 4

1. Two forces 7N and 5N are added, how will they give resultant of 12N and 2N?

2. Why long spanner is used to open or tight nuts of vehicle’s tyres? While tightening a small nut,
extra long spanner is not suitable. Why?
3. Why door knobs are fixed at the edge of door? What will happen if the door knob is at the
middle of the door?
4. A uniform meter rod is balanced on the sharp edge of a knife. A mass is hanging on its right
side. Why is it not falling on the right side?
5. How does this toy remain balanced on finger, even disturbed slightly?
6. A small boy is thrown straight up by his father. At the top of his path he comes to rest for a
moment. Will he be in equilibrium at this point?
7. A fan is rotating uniformly, is it in equilibrium?
8. Can a body be in equilibrium under the action of a single force or single torque?
9. Give an example of a body which satisfies the first condition of equilibrium, but it is not in
equilibrium?
10. Why Heavy Transport Vehicles (HTV) are made heavy at their bottom?
11. A boy standing by joining both legs is more likely to fall than a boy standing with legs wide
open, if slightly pushed by another boy?
