1. Inertia is the resistance of a object to any change in its state of motion, including
a change in direction. Which property is a measure of the body's inertia?

Mass
Density
Volume
Weight
2. In a laboratory on Earth, experiments show that an object has a mass of 2 kg and
a weight of 20 N. The same experiments are then brought to the Moon, where
the gravitational field strength is less than on the Earth.
Are the mass and weight of the object the same, or less, than before?

less mass, same weight


same mass, less weight
Less mass, less weight
same mass, same weight
3. Which statement is correct about the position of the centre of gravity of a uniform
solid?
The centre of gravity of a uniform solid

is fixed and on the solid itself.


depends on the mass of the solid.
is fixed and may be outside the body.
depends on the density of the solid.
4. A student does an experiment to estimate the density of an irregularly-shaped
stone.

only a measuring cylinder containing water


a ruler and a measuring cylinder containing water
a balance and a ruler
a balance and a measuring cylinder containing water
