1.

Watch the tyres of tractor rolling. Rear tyres are broader because

a)

It looks good.

b)

Broader tyres lessen the muscular Force required.

c)

Broader tyres lessen the pressure on ground.

d)

Broader tyres lessen the friction on ground.

2.

Does Pressure change with altitudes?

a)

Yes, the higher the less Pressure

b)

Yes, the higher the more Pressure

c)

No, Pressure does not change

d)

No, There is no Pressure

3.

Look at the animation,

a)

The higher you go the more Particles so the less Pressure

b)

The Higher you go the less Pressure, less weight/Force from the air particles acting per unit surface

c)

The lower you go, the more particles, so the more weight on your shoulders, the more Pressure

d)

The lower you go, the more particles push up and the less force acts on you, so the less Pressure

4.

Pressure is

a)

P=FxA

b)

F=PxA

c)

F=P/A

d)

A=PxF

5.

Which sentence is the MOST RIGHT fit for this image?

a)

Flat shoes are better than heels.

b)

Pressure distribution is less for flat shoes.

c)

In muddy area, it's not a good idea to wear heels.

d)

Less the area, less is the pressure. So heels create less pressure.
