Define force.
State two effects of a force when applied on a body.
State the effect of force F in of the following diagram.

Sleepers are used below the rails.
A body X of mass 5 kg is moving with velocity 20 m s-2 while another body Y of mass 20 kg is moving with velocity 5 m S-1. Compare the momentum of the two bodies.
What do you understand by the clockwise and anticlockwise moment of force? When is it taken positive?
A body is acted upon by two forces of magnitude F but in opposite directions. State the effect of the force if both forces act at the same point of the body.
Fig. 5 shows a uniform meter scale weighing 200 gf. Provided at its centre. Two weights 300 gf and 500 gf are suspended from the ruler as shown in the diagram. Calculate the resultant torque of the ruler and hence calculate the distance from mid-point where a 100 gf should be suspended to balance the meter scale.

A uniform metre rule rests horizontally on a knife-edge at the 60 cm mark when a mass of 10 gram is suspended from one end. At which end must this mass be suspended? What is the mass of the rule?
A nut is opened by a wrench of length 25 cm. If the least force required is 10 N, find the moment of force needed to turn the nut.
