- Q1According to Aristotle, what is the natural state of motion for objects?RestUpward motionDownward motionConstant motion30sS11/12PS -IVc -46
- Q2According to Galileo, what is the natural state of motion for objects?Downward motionConstant motionUpward motionRest30sS11/12PS -IVc -46
- Q3How did Aristotle explain projectile motion?Objects are propelled by external forces and then fall in a curved pathObjects are propelled by an inherent force and then continue moving horizontallyObjects move in a straight line until acted upon by a forceObjects are propelled by an inherent force and then fall straight down30sS11/12PS -IVc -46
- Q4How did Galileo explain projectile motion?Objects are propelled by external forces and then fall in a curved pathObjects move in a straight line until acted upon by a forceObjects are propelled by an inherent force and then fall straight downObjects continue moving horizontally at a constant speed while falling in a parabolic path30sS11/12PS -IVc -46
- Q5According to Aristotle, what is required to maintain constant horizontal motion?A force acting only in the direction of motionA lack of forces acting upon the objectIntermittent bursts of forceA constant force30sS11/12PS -IVc -46
- Q6According to Galileo, what is required to maintain constant horizontal motion?No force is required, an object will continue moving at a constant speed unless acted upon by an external forceA constant forceA force acting only in the direction of motionIntermittent bursts of force30sS11/12PS -IVc -46
- Q7How did Aristotle explain vertical motion?Objects fall straight down with no other influenceObjects are repelled by the center of the universeObjects move upwards toward the center of the universeObjects fall toward the center of the universe30sS11/12PS -IVc -46
- Q8How did Galileo explain vertical motion?Objects fall downward due to gravityObjects fall upward due to centrifugal forceObjects are attracted upward by the center of the EarthObjects are pushed downward by air pressure30sS11/12PS -IVc -46
- Q9According to Aristotle, what causes an object to move?The object's surroundings and environmentAn external force acting on the objectThe object's position in the universeAn inherent force within the object30sS11/12PS -IVc -46
- Q10According to Galileo, what causes an object to move?The object's surroundings and environmentThe object's position in the universeAn external force acting on the objectAn inherent force within the object30sS11/12PS -IVc -46
- Q11What did Galileo infer about force and horizontal motion?Force is not necessary to sustain horizontal motionThere is no such thing as horizontal motionForce is necessary to sustain horizontal motionHorizontal motion is impossible30sS11/12PS -IVc -46
- Q12What is the acceleration of objects in vacuum, according to Galileo?IncreasingDecreasingNone of the aboveUniform30sS11/12PS -IVc -47
- Q13What is the name of the phenomenon in which objects of different masses fall at the same rate in vacuum?Galilean equivalence principleBoyle's lawEinstein's theory of relativityNewton's third law30sS11/12PS -IVc -47
- Q14What is the name of the experiment with which Galileo proved that objects of different mass fall at the same rate in vacuum?Michelson-Morley experimentStern-Gerlach experimentDouble-slit experimentLeaning Tower of Pisa experiment30sS11/12PS -IVc -47
- Q15What is the name of the law that explains the relationship between force, mass, and acceleration?Hooke's lawBoyle's lawNewton's second lawOhm's law30sS11/12PS-IVd-51
