Question 1

A high-speed train travels along a straight track at a constant velocity of 15 m/s. How far does the train travel in 12 seconds?

180 m 150 m 120 m 225 m

Correct Answer:

180 m

Question 2

A sports car accelerates from rest (0 m/s) to 24 m/s in a time interval of 6.0 seconds. What is the average acceleration of the car?

4.0 m/s² 144 m/s² 0.25 m/s² 18 m/s²

Correct Answer:

4.0 m/s²

Question 3

A passenger sitting in a moving bus surges forward when the driver suddenly slams on the brakes. Which of Newton's laws best explains this phenomenon?

Newton's First Law (Law of Inertia), because the passenger's body tends to remain in its state of forward motion. Newton's Second Law (F = ma), because net force on the passenger increases proportionally with velocity. Newton's Third Law (Action-Reaction), because the road pushes back on the bus tires with an equal force. Newton's Law of Universal Gravitation, because downward gravity increases when the bus stops.

Correct Answer:

Newton's First Law (Law of Inertia), because the passenger's body tends to remain in its state of forward motion.

Question 4

A net horizontal force of 3000 N acts on a 1200 kg vehicle. What is the resulting acceleration of the vehicle?

2.5 m/s² 0.40 m/s² 3.6 × 10⁶ m/s² 9.8 m/s²

Correct Answer:

2.5 m/s²

Question 5

An astronaut floating in space pushes a 50 kg satellite with a force of 100 N to the right. What force does the satellite exert on the astronaut?

100 N to the left 100 N to the right 50 N to the left 0 N because space is a vacuum

Correct Answer:

100 N to the left
