Q

what is force?

A

Force is a pull or push that changes or tends to change the position of the body from motion to rest or rest to motion

17
Q

State newton’s first law of motion

A

Newton first law of motion states that “Everybody continuous to be in the state of rest or motion in a straight line unless an external force is applied on it

18
Q

What is retardation?

A

It is defined as decrement in velocity per unit time. Negative acceleration is called retardation

19
Q

state newton’s second law of motion

A

Newton second law stats that “Acceleration of a body is directly proportional to the force applied and inversely proportional to the mass of the body”

20
Q

State newton’s third law of motion

A

Newton’s third law of motion states that “Every action has equal but negative reaction”

21
Q

Define balanced force

A

When number of forces acting on a body doesnot change the position of the body then the body is said to have balanced force. The applied force and opposing force is equal in balanced force.

22
Q

Define inertia of rest

A

It is the property of a body by virtue of which it remains or tends to remain in the state of rest unless an external force is applied on it.

23
Q

Define inertia of motion

A

It is the property of a body by virtue of which it remains or tends to remains in the state of motion in a straight line unless an external force is applied on it

24
Q

Define elasticity

A

It is the property of a solid by virtue of which it changes back to its form after the removal of external force

25
Q

Define plasticity

A

It is the property of body by virtue of which it remains its deformed shape even after the removal of external force.

26
Q

What is motion? Give example

A

Motion is the state of body in which it is changing position with respect to a reference point.
for example : Lets take a tree as a reference point and car as a object, the car is said to be in motion if it changes it’s position with respect to the tree.

27
Q

difference between action and reaction

A

action.
1. It is the process of taking or performing steps to get a desired outcome.
2. It can be initiated at any time by the actor.
eg : cooking, driving

reaction
1. It is the result or outcome of an actin
2. It only occurs after an action.
eg : braking the car in the response of traffic light.
