STANDARDIZED TEST 1

Ques Answer mark

1

a The force of friction between the tyre(s) and the road / tarmac /surface / brake 2
makes the cars stop. (*accept in reverse order)

This is because the force of friction has increased. (*accept any indication of
increased eg: gone up/ become more) 1

b On the road surface decreases friction. 2

Rougher road surface increases friction.

(each correct answer = 1 mark

3 boxes ticked, 2 correct = 1 mark

4 or more boxes ticked = 0 marks)

c becomes useful:

 friction between our shoes and the floor stop us from slipping 1
 friction between tyres and the road stop cars from skidding
 friction between the brakes and wheel help bikes and cars slow down

(* accept any logic answer)

becomes problem:

 If you don't lubricate your bike regularly with oil, the friction in the chain 1
and axles increases. Your bike will be noisy and difficult to pedal.
 When there is a lot of friction between moving parts, energy is lost to
the surroundings as heat.
 When moving heavy stuff, scratch might happen due to friction

(* accept any logic answer)
