2. Gravitational force is a _______ force

Ans : rotatory

3.  Motion of a potter’s wheel is an example of _______  motion

Ans : rotatory

4. When an object covers equal distances in equal interval of time, it is said to be in _______ motion

Ans : uniform

IV. Analogy.

1. kicking a ball : contact force :: falling of leaf : _______?

VI. Answer in a word or two.

1. The force which acts on an object without Physical contact. _______

Non contact force

2. A change in the position of an object with time. _______

Motion

3. The motion which repeats itself after a fixed interval of time. _______

Oscillatory motion

4. The motion of an object travels equal distances in equal intervals of time. _______

Uniform motion

5. A machine capable of carrying out a complex series of actions automatically. _______

Robots.

VII. Answer briefly

1. Define force.

Forces are push or pull by an animate or inanimate agency.

2. Name different types of motion based on the path.

• Linear motion
• Curvilinear motion
• Circular motion
• Rotatory motion
• Oscillatory motion
• Zigzag (irregular) motion

3. If you are sitting in a moving car, will you be at rest or motion with respect to your friend sitting next to you?

I am in rest with respect to my friend, sitting inside the car.

4. Rotation of the earth is a periodic motion. Justify.

Motion repeated in equal intervals of time is called as periodic motion. The earth rotates on its axis once in 24 hours. The duration of time is fixed as 24 hours. Therefore the rotation of earth is a periodic motion.

5. Differentiate between rotational and curvilinear motion.

VIII. Calculate

1. A vehicle covers a distance of 400km in 5 hour. Calculate its average speed

IX. Answer in detail:

1. What is motion? Classify different types of motion with examples.

Motion: Change of position of any object with respect to time is known as motion.

1. Based on path:

i) Linear motion

• eg. Parade of the soldiers.

ii) Curvilinear motion

• eg. Paper flight moving.

iii) Circular motion

• eg. Swirling stone tied to the rope

iv) Rotatory motion

• eg. Rotating top

v) Oscillatory motion

• eg. Clock pendulum

vi) Zigzag (irregular) motion

• eg. Motion of a bee

2. Based on duration:

i) Periodic motion

• eg. Motion of a bob of simple pendulum

ii) Non periodic motion

• eg. swaying of the branches of a tree.

3. Based on speed:

i) Uniform motion

eg. Hour hand of a clock

ii) Non-uniform motion

• eg. Motion of a train, as it leaves a station.
