CBSE Class 9 Physics Worksheet - Gravitation

This document contains 20 multiple choice questions from a physics assignment on gravitation for Class IX students at Bal Bharati Public School in Pitampura. The questions cover topics like the force of gravity between celestial bodies, weight and mass on different planets, free fall problems involving calculation of velocity and distance at different times, and more. Students are asked to identify factors that gravity depends on, calculate gravitational forces and masses, and analyze motion in different gravitational fields.

have happened in the absence of such a force?

Q2 A falling apple attracted towards the earth. Then why don’t we see the earth moving
towards the apple?

highest point of its journey? How high the particle would rise? What time would it take to reach
the highest point?

Q11 A bal l is dropped from the top of a tower 40m high. What is its velocity when it has
covered 20m? What would be its velocity when it hits the ground?

when the stone reaches the ground. T hey meet and find that the time taken by the stone to
reach the ground is 6sec. Find the height of the high rise building.
