Question 1

Question
A wooden block of mass 0.60 kg is on a rough horizontal surface. A force of 12 N is applied to the block and it accelerates at 4.0 m.s^–2. What is the magnitude of the frictional force acting on the block?
Answer
  • A 2.4 N
  • B 9.6 N
  • C 14 N
  • D 16 N

Question 2

Question
A horizontal force of 90N is used to push a box across a horizontal floor. The frictional force on the box is 50N. What is the gain in kinetic energy of the box when it is moved through a distance of 6.0m?
Answer
  • A 240 J
  • B 300 J
  • C 540 J
  • D 840 J

Question 3

Question
A positive charge experiences a force F when placed at point X in a uniform electric field. The charge is then moved from point X to point Y. Distances r and s are shown on the diagram. What is the change in the potential energy of the charge?
Answer
  • A decreases by Fs
  • B increases by Fs
  • C decreases by Fr
  • D increases by Fr

Question 4

Question
A submarine is in equilibrium in a fully submerged position. What causes the upthrust on the submarine?
Answer
  • A The air in the submarine is less dense than sea water.
  • B The sea water exerts a greater upward force on the submarine than the weight of the steel.
  • C The submarine displaces its own volume of sea water.
  • D There is a difference in water pressure acting on the top and bottom of the submarine.
