Worked practice questions

The value of g depends on the object's:

  1. Nothing at all
  2. Mass in kilos
  3. Colour of it
  4. Height of drop
Show answer and solution

Correct answer: A. Nothing at all

1. A heavy and a light object fall alike in the absence of air. 2. The pull grows with mass but so does the resistance to speeding up. 3. The acceleration due to gravity does not depend on the mass. 4. So the answer is nothing at all. _Source: syllabus Science, Ch 6 'How Forces Affect Motion'_

For quick estimation, g may be taken as:

  1. 80 m per s2
  2. 10 m per s2
  3. 20 m per s2
  4. 50 m per s2
Show answer and solution

Correct answer: B. 10 m per s2

1. The exact value is 9.8 metres per second squared. 2. Rounding it makes mental arithmetic easier. 3. For quick estimations one can take g as 10. 4. So the answer is 10 m per s2. _Source: syllabus Science, Ch 6 'How Forces Affect Motion'_

One newton produces what acceleration on a 1 kg mass?

  1. 5 m per s2
  2. 2 m per s2
  3. 1 m per s2
  4. 9 m per s2
Show answer and solution

Correct answer: C. 1 m per s2

1. The newton is defined through the second law. 2. It uses a mass of one kilogram. 3. One newton gives that mass an acceleration of 1 m per s2. 4. So the answer is 1 m per s2. _Source: syllabus Science, Ch 6 'How Forces Affect Motion'_
