Card 1Force Basics

What is force?

Answer

Force is a push or pull acting on an object. It can change the state of motion or shape of the object. Example: Pushing a door to open it.

Card 2Force as Push

Give two examples of force as a push.

Answer

1. Pushing a trolley at the market. 2. Pushing a car that has stopped working.

Card 3Force as Pull

Give two examples of force as a pull.

Answer

1. A bull pulling a cart. 2. A person pulling a luggage trolley at the railway station.

Card 4Force and Shape

How does force change the shape of an object? Give an example.

Answer

When force is applied without changing the position, it can deform the object. Example: Squeezing a sponge changes its shape.

Card 5Mass and Force

Can force change the mass of an object?

Answer

No, force cannot change the mass of an object. Mass remains constant even when force is applied.

Card 6Effects of Force

What are the effects of force on a body?

Answer

1. Can move a stationary object. 2. Can stop a moving object. 3. Can increase or decrease speed. 4. Can change direction. 5. Can change shape or size.

Card 7Friction

A ball is rolling on the ground and stops after some time. Why?

Answer

The force of friction between the ball and the ground opposes motion and slows it down until it stops.

Card 8Friction

Define friction.

Answer

Friction is the force that opposes the relative motion between two surfaces in contact. It always acts opposite to the direction of motion.
