Question

When a force acts on an object at rest, it causes it to ___.

  1. Grow
  2. Move
  3. Evolve
  4. Flourish

hintHint:

Force is an external agent capable of changing a body's state of rest or motion. It has a magnitude and a direction.

The correct answer is: Move


    • A force, when applied on a body, can change the state of a body i.e. can bring a body from rest to motion and vice-versa.
    • It can change the speed of a moving body and the direction of the moving body. For example, hitting a cricket ball changes the direction and speed of the ball.
    • A force can also change the shape and size of a body. 
    • So appropriate answer is MOVE among all options.
