What are the two branches of Mechanics? None of them Thermodynamics and Electromagnetism Kinematics and Electromagnetism Kinematics and Dynamics 5. When is a body said to be in a state of rest? When it moves in a straight line When it moves randomly When it moves along a circular path When it remains still 6. How are rest and motion related to each other? They are the same They are not related They are opposite of each other They have no relation 7. What is vibratory motion? Motion of a body along a straight line Back and forth motion of a body about its mean position The spinning of a body about its axis Motion of a body along a circular path 8. What is the definition of circular motion? Motion of a body along a circular path Irregular motion of an object Motion of a body around a fixed axis Motion of a body along a straight line 9. What is the difference between distance and displacement? Distance is a vector quantity while displacement is a scalar quantity. Distance and displacement are the same. Distance is the shortest length covered while displacement is the total length covered. Distance is the total length covered while displacement is the shortest length covered. 10.
