Resource summary

Question 1

Question
Stationary objects require [blank_start]energy[blank_end] to move, change shape or warm up.
Answer
  • power
  • energy
  • heat

Question 2

Question
What is the principle of conservation of energy?
Answer
  • Energy can be transformed into other forms of energy.
  • Energy must be conserved.
  • Energy cannot be created or destroyed.

Question 3

Question
Work Done on an object is equal to the Force multiplied by the Distance moved.
Answer
  • True
  • False

Question 4

Question
When work is done on an object, [blank_start]energy[blank_end] is transferred to it.
Answer
  • energy

Question 5

Question
Work Done has a unit of Joules (J), which is equal to which of the following base units?
Answer
  • kgm^2s^-2
  • Nm
  • kgms^-2
  • kgm^-3

Question 6

Question
The [blank_start]greater[blank_end] the force, or the [blank_start]further[blank_end] the distance, the greater the work done on an object.
Answer
  • greater
  • lesser
  • shorter
  • further

Question 7

Question
No work is done on an object when Force and Distance/Displacement are...
Answer
  • of equal size.
  • at an angle of 30 degrees.
  • at right angles to each other.

Question 8

Question
The area underneath a Force-Distance graph represents the acceleration of the object.
Answer
  • True
  • False

Question 9

Question
Which of the following apply for a string being stretched?
Answer
  • The distance moved by the spring is the extension.
  • Energy is lost during stretching.
  • Are under a Force-Distance graph for a stretched spring is equal to the energy stored in the spring.
  • Energy stored in a spring = Force x Distance.
  • Energy stored in a spring = 1/2 x Force x Extension/Change in length.
  • A stretched spring obeys Newton's 3rd Law.
  • A stretched spring obeys Hooke's Law, which states that Force is directly proportional to the extension of the spring.

Question 10

Question
Kinetic Energy = 1/2 x mass x velocity^2
Answer
  • True
  • False

Question 11

Question
The slower an object moves, the more kinetic energy it has.
Answer
  • True
  • False

Question 12

Question
Acceleration due to gravity is 10ms^-2.
Answer
  • True
  • False

Question 13

Question
Which of the following is true?
Answer
  • potential energy = mass x acceleration due to gravity
  • mgh = 1/2mv^2
  • Work done on an object decreases the gravitational potential energy of the object.

Question 14

Question
When considering a pendulum bob - is it true that the bob passes its equilibrium position with maximum speed, and then slows down when it reaches its maximum height. Meaning that the kinetic energy is equal to the loss of potential energy from its maximum height.
Answer
  • True
  • False

Question 15

Question
Power is the [blank_start]rate of transfer of energy[blank_end].
Answer
  • rate of transfer of energy
  • time per Joule
  • time work takes to be done

Question 16

Question
Energy can be transferred from one object to another by the means of: - work done -heat transfer -electricity -sound waves -electromagnetic radiation
Answer
  • True
  • False

Question 17

Question
Which of the following apply for engine power:
Answer
  • Power = Force x Velocity
  • Obeys Newton's 2nd Law.
  • Resistive forces are equal and opposite to the motive force.

Question 18

Question
Useful power output = Total power supplied/Useful power
Answer
  • True
  • False
