A. Objective Questions

1. Write true or false for each statement

(a) A coolie does no work against the force of gravity while carrying luggage on a road

Answer: True.

(b) The energy stored in the water of a dam is the kinetic energy.

Answer: False.

(c) The energy of a flying kite is kinetic energy.

Answer: True.

(d) Work done by a boy depends on the time in which he does work.

Answer: False.

(e) Power spent by a body depends on the time for which it does work.

Answer: True.

Question 2.

Fill in the blanks:

(a) Work is said to be done by a forte only when the body moves.

(b) Work done = Force x distance moved in direction of force.

(c) The energy of a body is its capacity to do work.

(d) The S.I. unit of energy is the joule.

(e) The potential energy is due to its state rest of position and kinetic energy of the body is due to its state of motion.

(f) Gravitational potential energy U = mass × force of gravity on unit mass × height.

(g) Kinetic energy = ½ × mass × (speed)2

(h) Power P = work done/time taken.

(i) The S. I. unit of power is the watt

(j) I.H.P. = 746 W

 

Question 3.

Match the following:

Column A                                                             Column B

(a) A stone at a height                                                (i) power

(b) A moving ball                                                       (ii) joule

(c) Energy                                                                   (iii) work done in 1 s

(d) Power                                                                   (iv) potential energy

(e) watt                                                                       (v) kinetic energy

Solution:

Column A                                                           Column B

(a) A stone at a height                                       (iv) potential energy

(b) A moving ball                                               (v) kinetic energy

(c) Energy                                                            (ii) joule

(d) Power                                                            (iii) work done in 1 s

(e) watt                                                                (i) power

(a) The S.I. unit of work is

1. second

2. metre

3. joule

4. newton

Solution:  The correct answer is 3. joule

(b) No work is done by a force if the body

1. moves in direction of the force

2. does not move

3. moves in the opposite direction

4. none of these

Solution:  The correct answer 2. does not move
