Types of Forces Quiz 2024

The force of gravity can be defined as:

• any observed push or pull from any other source
• pull from a rope of chain
• an attraction to the center of the Earth
• Pushes out from a surface

The force of air resistance can be defined as:

• any observed push or pull from any other source
• resistive force when moving through air
• an attraction to the center of the Earth
• pull form a rope or chain

The force of tension can de defined as:

• any observed push or pull from any other source
• pull from a rope or chain
• an attraction to the center of the Earth
• pushes out from a surface

Friction force can be defined as:

• any observed push or pull from any other source
• pushes out from surface
• resistive force when moving through air
• opposes surface from sliding against each other

Buoyant force can be defined as:

• the upward force that fluids exert on all matter
• any observed push or pull from any other source
• resistive force when moving through air
• opposes surface from sliding against each other

Spring force can be defined as:

• any observed push or pull from any other source
• the upward force that fluids exert on all matter
• exerted when compressed or stretched, always acts in the opposite direction of relaxing position
• opposes surface from sliding against each other

What is a non-contact force?

• a force that can pish an object at large distances
• a force that requires two objects to physically touch
• a force that does not require physical contact
• a force that requires two or more objects to touch

What is a contact force?

• a force that can make an object accelerate
• a force that requires two objects to physically touch
• a force that can only be the value of 1 N
• a force that does not require physical contact
