What is the primary cause of friction?

The irregularities on the surfaces in contact

The gravitational pull between objects

The magnetic field around objects

How does increasing the surface area of an object affect the frictional force it experiences?

No effect on the frictional force

Initially increases, then decreases the frictional force

Which of the following is true about the gravitational force between two objects?

It increases as the distance between objects decreases

It only depends on the mass of one object

It is not affected by the distance between objects

It is the strongest force in nature

What is the principle behind Newton's third law of motion?

For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction

Objects in motion tend to stay in motion

Force equals mass times acceleration

The force of gravity is the same on all objects, regardless of mass

Which of the following scenarios best illustrates the concept of inertia?

A book resting on a table and remaining at rest

A ball rolling down a hill and gradually coming to a stop

Two magnets repelling each other when the same poles are facing

A satellite orbiting the Earth in space

Which of the following best describes the action-reaction force pairs in Newton's third law of motion?

They act on different objects in opposite directions

How does the roughness of surfaces affect the frictional force between them?

Has no effect on the frictional force

Initially decreases, then increases the frictional force

What is the effect of increasing the mass of one object on the gravitational force between two objects?

The gravitational force increases

The gravitational force remains unchanged

The gravitational force decreases

The gravitational force initially increases, then decreases

When two forces act in opposite directions on an object, what is the effect on the object's motion?

The object moves in the direction of the larger force

The object moves in a circular path

The object moves in the direction of the smaller force

What happens to the motion of an object when the net force acting on it is balanced?

It continues moving at the same speed and in the same direction

It slows down and eventually stops

What happens to the net force on an object when balanced forces act on it?

The object's motion does not change

The object spontaneously moves in random directions

What happens to an object when the net force acting on it is zero?

It moves at a constant velocity

In the context of balanced forces, which statement is true?

They result in a net force of zero on the object

They always cause an object to move

They are only observed in outer space

They increase the mass of the object

How does the surface area in contact affect the force of friction?

Larger surface area increases friction force

Larger surface area decreases friction force

Surface area has no effect on friction force

Only the texture of the surface affects friction force
