Forces & Laws of Motion

Which of the following statement is not correct for an object moving along a straight path in an accelerated motion?

• Its speed keeps changing

• Its velocity always changes

• It always goes away from the earth

• A force is always acting on it

A goalkeeper in a game of football pulls his hands backwards after holding the ball shot at the goal. This enables the goal keeper to

• exert larger force on the ball

• reduce the force exerted by the ball on hands

• increase the rate of change of momentum

• decrease the rate of change of momentum

A passenger in a moving train tosses a coin which falls behind him. It means that motion of the train is

• accelerated

• uniform

• retarded

• along circular tracks

An object of mass 2 kg is sliding with a constant velocity of 4 m s^–1 on a frictionless horizontal table. The force required to keep the object moving with the same velocity is

• 32 N

• 0 N

• 10 N

• 2 N

A water tanker filled up to 2 / 3 of its height is moving with a uniform speed. On sudden application of the brake, the water in the tank would

• move backward

• move forward

• be unaffected

• rise upwards
