    What is the direction of buoyant force ?

    On applying force in opposite direction of motion of an object, what effect occurs on the state of motion ?

    Assertion: Magnitude of the contact force is always greater than the magnitude of frictional force. Reason: Contact force is the resultant of the friction force and normal reaction.

    The sum of magnitudes of two forces acting at a point is 16 N . If the resultant force is 8 N and its direction is perpendicular to smaller force, then the forces are :-

    A force of 7 N acts on an object. The displacement is, say 8 m, in the direction of the force. Let us take it that the force acts on the object through the displacement. What is the work done in this case?
