The Laws of Motion were proposed by Sir Isaac Newton. These laws describe the relationship between force, mass and motion of an object.
The laws of motion help us understand why objects remain at rest, start moving, stop moving, or change their direction of motion. They form the foundation of classical mechanics.
Motion is the change in position of an object with respect to time and a reference point.
A force is a push or pull that can change:
There are three laws of motion which explain the effect of force on motion.
Q1. Laws of motion were given by: A) Galileo B) Newton C) Einstein D) Kepler Answer: B Q2. Motion is defined as: A) Change in speed only B) Change in position with time C) Change in direction only D) Change in shape Answer: B Q3. A force can change: A) Only speed B) Only shape C) Only direction D) State of motion, speed, direction and shape Answer: D Q4. Which of the following is a non-contact force? A) Friction B) Tension C) Normal reaction D) Gravitational force Answer: D Q5. Which field of physics mainly deals with laws of motion? A) Thermodynamics B) Optics C) Mechanics D) Electromagnetism Answer: C Q6. Which of the following is NOT an effect of force? A) Change in motion B) Change in shape C) Change in colour D) Change in direction Answer: C
The laws of motion were proposed by Sir Isaac Newton. They describe the relationship between force, mass and motion.
The laws of motion are studied under classical mechanics.
Motion is defined as the change in position of an object with respect to time and a reference point.
A force is a push or pull which can change:
Direct MCQs are asked on definition of force, motion, types of forces and identification of contact vs non-contact forces.
