What to expect: This mock test covers key concepts from the Force, Turning Effects of Force, and Uniform Circular Motion chapter — including application-based and competency-focused questions aligned with how ICSE actually sets the paper.
Tip: Attempt without notes first to identify gaps, then review explanations for any wrong answers. Retake after a few days for best retention.
Sample questions
-
1.Which of the following correctly describes the position of the centre of gravity in unstable equilibrium?
- A.The centre of gravity is at its highest position (e.g., a cone on its apex).
- B.The centre of gravity is at its lowest position (e.g., a cone on its base).
- C.The centre of gravity remains at the same height (e.g., a rolling ball).
- D.The centre of gravity is at the midpoint of the object's height.
-
2.Which of the following correctly states two factors that affect the turning effect of a force?
- A.The magnitude of the force and the perpendicular distance from the pivot to the line of action of the force.
- B.The direction of the force and the total distance from the pivot to the point of application.
- C.The mass of the object and the speed at which the force is applied.
- D.The angle of the force and the area over which the force is distributed.
-
3.A force of 10 N is applied at a perpendicular distance of 0.5 m from the pivot. What is the moment of force?
- A.5 N m
- B.20 N m
- C.2 N m
- D.50 N m
-
4.A wheel of diameter $2\mathrm{m}$ is shown in Fig. 1.27 with axle at O. A force $F = 2\mathrm{N}$ is applied at B in the direction shown in figure. Calculate the moment of force about (i) the centre O, and (ii) the point A.

-
5.Which of the following correctly defines translational motion and rotational motion?
- A.1. Translational: Object spins around a point; 2. Rotational: Object moves in a straight line
- B.1. Translational: Object moves bodily with all particles moving parallel at the same speed; 2. Rotational: Object rotates about a fixed point with particles moving along concentric circles at different speeds
- C.1. Translational: Object vibrates in place; 2. Rotational: Object moves in a circular path
- D.1. Translational: Object moves in a curved path; 2. Rotational: Object moves in a straight line
