Q1. Imran cycles 600 metres in 120 seconds. What is his speed?
Explanation
Speed equals distance divided by time. Imran’s distance is 600 metres and time is 120 seconds, so 600 divided by 120 gives 5 metre per second.

Q1. Imran cycles 600 metres in 120 seconds. What is his speed?
Explanation
Speed equals distance divided by time. Imran’s distance is 600 metres and time is 120 seconds, so 600 divided by 120 gives 5 metre per second.
Q2. Asha presses a sharp drawing pin and a blunt coin on clay with nearly equal effort. Which result is most likely?
Explanation
The sharp pin concentrates the same effort on a smaller contact area, so pressure is greater and the clay mark is deeper. This is the same reasoning used for nails and sharp knives.
Q3. Which force in the RBSE list acts between surfaces and opposes sliding motion?
Explanation
Friction is the contact force that appears when one surface moves or tries to move over another. In Asha and Imran’s eraser activity, rougher cloth stops the eraser sooner because friction opposes the direction of motion.
Q4. Which statement about simple machines is exam-safe for this topic?
Explanation
The note treats simple machines as bridge examples because the verified RBSE force-motion line does not separately name them. A pulley changing effort direction or a ramp spreading lifting over a path is enough for REET-level reasoning.
Q5. Assertion: A rubbed plastic scale can attract small paper pieces without touching them. Reason: Electrostatic force is a non-contact force. Choose the correct answer.
Explanation
This is a hard item because both parts must be judged and linked. Curiosity Grade 8 explains charged objects attracting paper pieces and classifies electrostatic force as non-contact, so the reason explains the assertion.
