Here is a chapter-wise MCQ practice set for the topic “Motion, Force and Energy” specially made for BPSC and UPSC Science and Technology Syllabus. Each chapter includes 10 MCQs with options and answers. The questions are made in easy language just like students understand in classroom.
BPSC science and technology MCQ set – Physics chapter 1
Science is not just about reading and learning — it’s about understanding how the world works around us. One of the most important parts of Physics in Science and Technology is the concept of Motion, Force, and Energy. These topics form the base of many competitive exams like BPSC, UPSC, and SSC.
Motion helps us understand how things move. Force tells us what causes movement. And Energy explains how things get the power to move or work. Means, ये तीनों टॉपिक आपस में जुड़े हुए हैं — और इनसे हर साल MCQs जरूर पूछे जाते हैं।
In this MCQ practice set, you will find:
- Chapter-wise objective questions
- Simple and exam-focused language
- Useful for quick revision and self-assessment
- Perfect for BPSC Prelims and other exams
Let’s begin the journey with some easy, interesting, and exam-relevant questions from the chapters Motion, Force, and Energy!
