Question 2 of 24

3. Weight of an object is highest at

Question 3 of 24

4. Apple falls towards the earth but the earth does not move towards the apple because

only earth exerts force on apple, apple does not exert force on earth

apple experiences greater force than the earth

only apple exerts force on earth, earth does not exert force on apple

acceleration is inversely proportional to mass, so acceleration of earth is negligible.

10. If you drop a stone and a piece of paper to the earth, they don't take the same time to reach the earth because:

air resistance slows down the paper more.

mass of stone is more than mass of paper

acceleration due to gravity is more for the stone

universal gravitational constant G is different for both

Question 21 of 24

22. Assertion : Universal gravitational constant G is a scalar quantity.
Reason : The value of G is the same throughout the universe.

a.) Both Assertion and Reason are correct, and reason is the correct explanation for assertion.

b.) Both Assertion and Reason are correct, and Reason is not the correct explanation for Assertion.

c.) Assertion is true but Reason is false.

d.) Assertion is false but Reason is true.

Question 22 of 24

23. Assertion : When distance between two bodies is doubled and also mass of each body is doubled, then the gravitational force between them remains the same.
