Mid-point Physics test – answers


Question Answer

1 Measure the thickness of all pages / of 100 pages.


Divide measurement by the number of pages.
2a scalar: mass and kinetic energy
vector: acceleration and velocity
2b 7 − 5 = 2 N (must include unit)
or 5 − 7 = −2 N (must include unit)
3a W = mg = 0.065 × 9.8 = 0.637 N (must include unit)

3b straight, upward sloping line starting from the origin

4 B

5a F = ma so a =
F
=
50
m 4.0
= 12.5 m/s2 (accept m s–2)
5bi distance = speed × time = 6(.0) × 0.5
= 3(.0) m
5 b ii A resultant force will cause acceleration / the trolley is not accelerating.
F = ma or any rearrangement.
A resultant force could cause a change in direction / the trolley is not changing direction.
6a gravitational potential; chemical

6b 1
mgh = mv2
2
m shown to cancel on both sides
7a D

7b in the Sun / in stars

7c ∆E 3.0 × 105
P= =
t 60
= 5000 or 5(.0) × 103 W / watts
8a At least 6 circles of approximately the same size placed randomly in the box.

8b The particles collide with the walls and exert force.


Pressure is force per unit area.
8c pressure =
force
area

Question Answer

8d • The volume will increase / expand


• The particles will move faster / have more (kinetic) energy.
• Particles will exert more force / more pressure (on the sides of the balloon).
9a letters A and B marked on the incident ray more than 2 cm apart

9b normal at 90o (judged by eye) to the surface where the incident ray meets the surface

9c measurement in the range 46–50°

9d straight ray drawn continuous with incident ray and bent towards the normal angle of refraction in the
range 25–29°
9e straight ray drawn continuous with previous ray and parallel (judged by eye) to the incident ray
