Classical Mechanics and Forces Quiz

#1

What is the SI unit of force?

Newton
Explanation

Force unit named after Isaac Newton.

#2

Which of the following is not a fundamental force in nature?

Friction
Explanation

Friction is a contact force, not a fundamental force.

#3

Which law of motion is also known as the law of inertia?

Newton's First Law
Explanation

Objects remain at rest or in motion unless acted upon.

#4

What is the relationship between force, mass, and acceleration according to Newton's Second Law?

Force = Mass * Acceleration
Explanation

Force equals mass times acceleration.

#5

What is the unit of torque?

Newton-meter
Explanation

Product of force and distance.

#6

Which law of motion explains the behavior of an object in equilibrium?

Newton's First Law
Explanation

Objects remain stationary or move with constant velocity.

#7

What is the law that states that for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction?

Newton's Third Law
Explanation

Principle of action and reaction.

#8

Which of the following is a measure of an object's resistance to changes in its rotational motion?

Inertia
Explanation

Property of mass related to rotation.

#9

What is the formula for calculating momentum?

Mass * Velocity
Explanation

Product of mass and velocity.

#10

Which of the following is NOT a conservative force?

Friction
Explanation

Friction dissipates energy, unlike conservative forces.

#11

What does the term 'terminal velocity' refer to?

The velocity of an object when air resistance balances its weight
Explanation

Maximum speed due to opposing forces.

#12

Which of the following is NOT a type of friction?

Centripetal friction
Explanation

Centripetal force aids circular motion.

#13

In a system with constant velocity, what is the net force acting on the system?

Zero
Explanation

No change in motion implies zero net force.

#14

What is the principle behind the conservation of angular momentum?

Angular momentum remains constant in the absence of external torque
Explanation

Conservation law for rotational motion.

#15

Which of the following is an example of a non-inertial frame of reference?

A merry-go-round spinning at a constant rate
Explanation

Accelerating reference frame.
