    Buli Samadder
    This document outlines a study guide for a class exam on force and pressure. It provides examples of different types of questions that may appear on the exam, including very short answer questions worth 1 mark each about forces acting on objects, calculating pressure, and properties of forces. Short answer questions worth 2 marks each address topics like walking on sand, pressure in vessels of water, defining contact forces, and calculating thrust and pressure. Long answer questions worth 3 marks involve calculating pressure at the bottom of a swimming pool due to water depth, and calculating the force exerted by gas pressure on a piston.

    CLASS VIII

    FORCE AND PRESSURE (30 MARKS)


    I. Very short answer type: [1 marks]
    1. An archer shoots an arrow in the air horizontally. However, after moving some distance, the
    arrow falls to the ground. Name the initial force that sets the arrow in motion. Explain why the
    arrow ultimately falls down.
    2. A force of 100 N is applied on an area of 4 sq. m. Compute pressure being applied on the area.
    3. Two thermocol balls held close to each other move away from each other. When they are
    released, name the force which might be responsible for this phenomenon. Explain.
    4. What is the similarity between electrostatic and magnetic forces?
    5. Two rods: A and B, having same weight and equal length have different thickness. Rod A is
    thinner while Rod B is thicker. They are held vertically on the surface of sand. Which one of them
    will sink more? Why?
    6. How does an applied force changes the speed of an object?
    7. How do fluids exert pressure?
    8. Name the forces acting on the car sticking to an electromagnet in a Junkyard. Which one of them
    is larger?
    9. Which one of the following statements is false about force.
    A. Forces applied on an object need not to be in the same direction.
    B. No objects interaction is required for a force to come into play.
    C. Motion imparted to objects will be due to the action of a force.
    D. The strength of a force is usually expressed by its magnitude
    10. Leaves and fruits fall to the ground when they get detached from a plant. Which one of the
    following force is acting on it?
    A. muscular force B. magnetic force
    C. gravitational force D. electrostatic force
    11. Describe the state of motion of an object.
    II. Short answer type: [2 marks]
    1. Why it is easier to walk on soft sand if we have flat shoes rather than shoes with sharp heels (or
    pencil heels)?
    2. Observe the figures given below carefully.

    Volume of water in each vessel is shown above. Arrange them in order of decreasing pressure at
    the base of each vessel. Explain the reason.
    3. What is force? State the difference between contact force and non-contact force.
    4. A force of 1200 N acts on the surface of area 10 cm 2 normally. What would be the thrust and
    pressure on the surface?
    5. Do you think sometimes application of force does not result in a change in the state of motion?
    Describe with an example.
    III. Long answer type: [3 marks]
    1. A swimming pool of width 9.0 m and length 24.0 m is filled with water to a depth of 3.0 m.
    Calculate pressure on the bottom of the pool due to the water.
    2. The pressure of a gas contained in a cylinder with a movable piston is 300 Pa. The area of the
    piston is 0.5 m2. Calculate the force that is exerted on the piston.
    3. What are the effects of application of force on an object? Explain.
