Chapter 4, Problem 1MCQ

To determine

Mass is related to the object’s certain physical properties.

Answer to Problem 1MCQ

Option (d).

Explanation of Solution

Mass is related to the weight of the object as,

  $\text{weight = }mg$

Here, $m$ is the mass, $g$ is the accelaration due to grvaity.

The measure of inertia of an object is it’s mass.

The relationship between density and mass is,

  $\text{density =}\frac{\text{mass}}{\text{volume}}$

Therefore, mass of an object is related to object’s weight, inertia and density.

Conclusion:

Mass of an object is related to object’s weight, inertia and density. Therefore, option (d) is correct.

Mass along with weight is also related to object’s inertia and density. Thus, option (a) is incorrect.

The measure of inertia is mass but mass is also related to object’s weight and density. Thus, option (b) is incorrect.

The density of an object is related to its mass but mass is also related to weight and inertia. Thus, option (c) is incorrect.
