Torque
Friction
Leverage
Explain the concept of equilibrium in physics.
Equilibrium occurs when an object is in motion at a constant speed.
Equilibrium is a state where the net force acting on an object is zero, resulting in no acceleration.
Equilibrium is a state where forces are unbalanced, causing movement.
Equilibrium is the point where an object experiences maximum acceleration.

F = m / a
F = m + a
How does friction affect motion and energy?
Friction only affects solid surfaces, not liquids or gases.
Friction has no effect on motion or energy.
Friction enhances motion and increases kinetic energy.
Friction opposes motion and converts kinetic energy into thermal energy, reducing available energy for movement.
What is the role of a fulcrum in a lever system?
The fulcrum increases the weight of the load.
The fulcrum is the source of the force applied.
The fulcrum connects the lever to the ground.
The fulcrum acts as the pivot point in a lever system, enabling force amplification.
Define elastic and inelastic collisions.
Both elastic and inelastic collisions conserve kinetic energy but not momentum.
Elastic collisions occur only at high speeds; inelastic collisions occur at low speeds.
Elastic collisions conserve both momentum and kinetic energy; inelastic collisions conserve momentum but not kinetic energy.
Elastic collisions do not conserve momentum; inelastic collisions conserve both momentum and kinetic energy.
What is the significance of the center of mass in motion?
The center of mass simplifies the analysis of motion and dynamics of a system.
The center of mass only applies to stationary objects.
The center of mass determines the speed of an object.
The center of mass is irrelevant in complex systems.
What is the relationship between force and acceleration?
Force is inversely proportional to acceleration.
Force is directly proportional to acceleration.
Force and acceleration are unrelated.
Force is equal to acceleration divided by mass.
What is the principle of conservation of energy?
The total energy in a closed system remains constant.
Energy can be created and destroyed.
Energy can only be transferred, not transformed.
Energy is always lost in any transformation.
How does the mass of an object affect its gravitational potential energy?
Gravitational potential energy decreases with mass.
Mass has no effect on gravitational potential energy if height is constant.

The center of mass simplifies the analysis of motion and dynamics in physical systems.
How do you determine the net force acting on an object?
The net force is the total mass of the object.
The net force is the vector sum of all individual forces acting on an object.
The net force is the average of all forces acting on the object.
The net force is the largest individual force acting on the object.
What is the difference between static and dynamic equilibrium?
Static equilibrium involves no movement, while dynamic equilibrium involves constant motion.
