It increases its speed during the next minute. This means that it goes (further / not so far /the same distance) in a minute.8. A car takes 3 minutes to go 1 kilometre.

Complete the table by choosing words from the box to give the correct name of the forces described.

Description Name of Force9 A driving force created by the

push of a dolphin's tail.10 Upwards force created by

water on a body dipped into it.11 A force due to gravity

12 Force of resistance due to air or water

For question 13 to 15, look at the diagram of forces on a car moving forward and complete the table to match up the forces with the letters A, B c or D

Description of force

Which arrow on the diagram?

13 Driving force due to the engine

14 Weight force due to gravity

15 Drag force due to friction

Use either the word increases or reduces to complete the description about friction in bicycles.

16. A bicycle tyre _________ friction between the wheel and the road. Putting on the brakes _________ friction between the brake block and the wheel. Oil ___________ friction between the wheel and the axle.

For questions 17 and 18, use the tug-of-war diagrams .17. In which of the diagrams is there a resultant (overall) force of 3000 N? A, B, C or D? 18. Which team will move to the left? A, B, C or D? The diagram below shows the directions of four forces acting on an aeroplane while it is flying.

19. What causes force W? 20. What produces force Z? 21. What happens if X and Y are equal? 22. What happens eventually to the speed of the plane if Z becomes smaller and smaller?

A swimming dolphin travels 100 metres in 5 seconds. Fill in the gaps to find out its speed.

Use words to complete Questions 23 and 24, and numbers to complete questions 25 and 2623. Speed = __________ divided by ________.24. That's 100 metres divided by 5 __________25. Speed = 100 / ______26. So the dolphin's speed = ______ metres per second.

A runner can run a race over a distance of 500m in 100s. Use the same method in the last question to help calculate her speed.Use numbers to complete questions 27 and 2827. Speed = ______ / ______28. So the runner’s speed = ______ metres per second

A person on Earth has a mass of 75 kg and a weight of 750 N. On a planet with a force of gravity twice as big as on Earth…..29. what would be the mass of the person? 30. what would be the person's weight?

Well done!Now go back and check your work to make sure you haven’t made any silly

mistakes.
