2. Frictional force cannot be applied on moving objects. False
3. The ability to do work is called energy. True
4. Wind energy is used to rotate the blades of a windmill. True
5. Petrol is obtained from coal mines. False

Q.4 Identify the different source of energy shown in the following

pictures.

Q.5 Identify the types of force shown in the following pictures.

Q.6 Short answer questions
1. What is force? Name the different types of forces.
Ans: The push or pull applied on an object is called force, There
are different types of forces - gravitational force (or gravity),
frictional force (Friction), magnetic force and electrostatic force.
2. Why does a fruit fall down from a tree?
Ans: A fruit always falls down because the Earth exerts a force
which pulls objects towards itself. The force by which Earth pulls
the object towards itself is called the gravitational force.
3. What will happen if there would be no friction?
Ans: Friction helps us to do many things. IF there would be no
friction, we will not be able to walk and ride a bicycle, We will also
not be able to light a matchstick.
4. Define the term energy. Name the different forms of energy.
Ans: The ability to do work is called energy: The different forms of
energy are solar energy, geothermal energy, solar energy, wind
energy, energy of flowing water.
5. How is electricity produced from water?
Ans: Running water is used to produce electricity, In a dam, river
water is blocked with the help of a huge wall. When the gates of
the dam are opened, the water rushes down with great force. The
energy of the falling water is used to move turbines and produce
electricity.
