with complete solution
If your vehicle is very well designed, and you are very skillful at handling your
vehicle, natural forces have no affect on your vehicle.
true
Can you undertake corrective actions to counter the undesired effects of natural
forces?
yes
Laws are often made to help drivers deal with natural forces. For example,
imposing of speed limits to deal with the force of impact, ............., and friction.
a. inertia
b. centrifugal
c. gravity
gravity
Seat belts and airbags do not help to minimize the impact of natural forces.
false
Not every thing around us, including our own bodies, is affected by the laws of
nature.
false
Taking preventive actions (such as slowing down when approaching a hill crest,
slowing down before reaching the downgrade or entering a curve), in addition to
wearing a safety belt, will help you drive more safely by ........ the effects of the
natural forces.
a. expanding
b. limiting
c. mitigating
d. cancelling
limiting
When picking up speed while driving downhill, the pull of gravity combined with
your speeding can lead to ...............consequences.
a. disastrous
b. no
c. minor
d. cascading
disastrous
Cars are not built with features to mitigate or reduce the effects of the forces of
nature.
false
If we were to roll a ball away from us and there are no opposing forces
a. it will stop at some distance from us
b. it will keep going in a straight line away from us forever
,c. it will roll in a curve back to you
d. it will roll round and round
b
Can the forces of nature be totally eliminated?
no
When you leave a vehicle parked on an incline, which force is working to pull the
vehicle downhill?
a. inertia
b. gravity
c. kinetic energy
d, friction
b
friction
When you drive downhill,gravity will cause you to go faster and increase your
stopping distance. You may need to shift to a .......... gear or smoothly apply your
brakes to .....down to a safe speed and control your vehicle.
a. lower, slow
b. higher, speed up
c. smooth, speed up
a
When you are driving uphill, the force of gravity is working against you to ...... and
you may need to .... or change to a higher gear to maintain your speed
a. speed you up, decelerate
b, slow you down, accelerate
b
Is traction necessary for you to steer your car?
yes
If the load of a truck is not balanced correctly along the length of the vehicle,
there is the possibility of a wheel lock-up during .........., and the vehicle losing
steering control.

If you are parking facing uphill and there is no curb, you should turn your
wheels ...... the side of the road, so the vehicle will roll away from the center of the
road if the brakes fail.
towards
When your vehicle is parked facing uphill, and there is a curb, what should you
do?
a. always turn the front wheels away from the middle of the road, towards the
curb, and put a block against the back tire of the car.
, b. Park with the front wheels turned away from the curb and allow the vehicle to
roll backward against the curb.
b
Gravity is a force that attracts everything towards the center of the earth. Gravity
therefore affects your .......... of travel when going uphill and downhill.
path

Traction is the result of friction between the ....and your tires caused by the......of
the car pushing the tires against the road due to gravity.
a. brakes, kinetic energy
b. road, weight
c. steering wheel, speed, inertia
b
Why are larger vehicles like trucks very unstable?
Because they are heavier
b. Because they have high center of gravity
Because they are harder to drive
because they are hard to maneuver
b
Worn or over-inflated tires will reduce the friction between your tires and the road
surface, reducing the traction needed to stop quickly
true
Friction on the tires of a vehicle is not affected by the material used to construct
the road.
false
Friction results in the resistance of an object moving over a surface.
true
Friction on the tires is ________ by the weight of your vehicle.
increased
Road conditions due to weather, like rain or ice, could result in the loss of control
of your vehicle due to reduction in friction.
true
When you are traveling down a steep hill and are using your brakes a lot, what
may happen?
a.Your brakes may screech due to the friction caused by downward momentum
causing temporary brake failure.
b. Your brakes will catch fire.
c. The components of your brakes become too hot, they cannot release any more
heat and will fail to absorb any more kinetic energy , and the brakes wil fail. This
will result in a loss of traction
