                Question 10.
                \nHave you ever seen a game of tug of war ? In this game two teams pull a rope in opposite direction. But sometimes the rope does not move explain why.
                \nAnswer:
                \na) When two forces acts on an object in opposite direction then the net force is difference of two forces.
                \nb) If two teams pull the rope with equal force, the forces will be in opposite direction and will cancel with each other and the rope will not move.<\/p>\n

                                \nSome forces like magnetic force, electrostatic force and gravitational force act on other bodies without any contact of surfaces. This property is called the field force.
                                \nAs far as magnetic force concern, the magnets are surrounded by the magnetic lines of force which provide the magnets attractive and repelling forces. The same poles repel and the different poles attract.
                                \nThe electrostatic forces are exerted by a charged body on another charged or uncharged body. The charged body induces an opposite charge on the uncharged body and it gets attracted by the body. Here, the two bodies are at distance before the electrostatic forces are exerted.
                                \nThe earth attracts everybody even though they are at some distance. This force is called gravitational force or weight of the body. It varies at different places.<\/p>\n

                                \n\"AP
                                \nAnswer:
                                \ni) Net force in the vertical direction = + 6N – 6N = 0N
                                \nii) Net force in the horizontal direction = + 20N – 3N = 17N.<\/p>\n

                                Question 6.
                                \nWhat will happen if gravitational force disappears from the Earth? Explain.
                                \nAnswer:
                                \nIf gravitational force disappears from the earth,
                                \ni) No atmospheric gases are found around the earth.
                                \nii) Objects does not fall down on the earth.
                                \niii) Human beings, animals can fly easily in the sky.
                                \niv) We cannot find the weight of the objects.<\/p>\n

                                Question 7.
                                \nDefine contact force and force at a distance, give two examples for each type of force.

                                \nContact force: The force results when there is a direct physical contact between two interacting objects is called contacting force.
                                \nExample: Muscular force, Frictional force, Normal force, Tension.
                                \nField force or Force at a distance : The force which occurs without any physical contact between two objects is known as force at a distance or field force.
                                \nExample : Magnetic force, Electrostatic force, Gravitational force.<\/p>\n
