Q1. Write answers of the following questions.

a) Name the instrument used to measure mass.
Balance
b) Name the units mass is measured in.
Kilogram and gram
c) Name the instrument used to measure weight.
force meter
d) Name the unit weight is measured in.
Newton
Q2. Read the following statements about mass and weight.
Mark each statement as true (T) or false (F).
a) Mass and weight are the same. F

b) We measure mass in kilograms. T

c) We measure weight in Newtons. T

d) Weight is the amount of matter in an object F

Q3. Look at the following instrument.

a) What is this instrument called?

A force meter
 b) The instrument is measuring the weight of an apple. What does
the apple weigh?
30 N
c) Mr. Ahmad has a mass of 90 kg on Earth. He travels to Planet
Zogg where the gravity is only half as strong as it is on Earth.
What will happen to the weight on Planet Zogg? Explain your
answer.
Mr Large will weigh 450 N on Planet Zogg. If his mass is 90 kg on Earth, his
weight
will be 10 × 90 = 900 N.
But since gravity is only half as strong on Planet Zogg, his weight will be half
of 900 N, which is 450 N.
Q3. If you pull on an object hanging from a force meter, would this give you
an accurate reading of the object’s weight? Say why or why not.
When you pull the force meter it adds some extra weight so you cannot
measure accurate weight

Q4. Draw a force diagram in the space to show the two forces that
affect the soccer ball when it is resting on the ground.

Q1. Arun and Marcus are investigating floating and sinking. ( /3)

a) Draw a force diagram to show a plastic toy duck floating on water. Label the forces.

b) Draw a force diagram to show a stone sinking in water. Label the forces.

c) Explain why the toy duck floats and the stone sinks?

The duck has a mass equal to or less than the mass of water displaced, so it floats.
The stone has a greater mass than the mass of water displaced, so it sinks.
Q2 Complete the sentences by filling in the correct words from the box.

Mass displaced float sink upthrust equal

less

An object will float if the mass of the object is

less than, or equal to, the mass of water displaced

by upthrust.

An object will sink if the mass of the object is greater than the mass of
water displaced by upthrust.
Q3. Complete the diagram with labelled arrows to show why the ping pong ball floats and
the tennis ball sinks towards the bottom of the tank.

a Which circuit is a series circuit and which circuit is a parallel

circuit?
Circuit A is a series circuit. Circuit B is a parallel circuit.
b In which circuit, A or B, will the lamps shine more brightly?
Explain why.
The lamps will shine more brightly in Circuit B.
This is because in a parallel circuit, the full strength of the battery goes to each
lamp.
