MCQ

1. A lorry of mass 10 000 kg takes 5000 kg of sand to the top of a hill 50 m high, unloads the
sand and then returns to the bottom of the hill.The gravitational field strength is 10 N / kg.
What is the overall gain in potential energy?

A 250 000 J B 750 000 J C 2 500 000 J D 7 500 000 J

2. A builder lifts eight slabs from the ground on to the back of a lorry 1.5 m high.
The total time taken is 48 s and each slab weighs 200 N.
How much useful power does the builder produce?

A 50 W B 400 W C 2400 W D 3200 W

3. A skier walks from the bottom of a ski slope to the top and gains 10 000 J of gravitational
potential energy. She skis down the slope. At the bottom of the slope, her kinetic energy is
2000 J.
 How much energy is dissipated in overcoming friction and air resistance as the skier moves
down the slope?

A 2000 J B 8000 J C 10 000 J D 12 000 J

4. A ball is held at rest on one side of a curved track.

The ball is released. It rolls down one side of the track and part of the way up the other side.
It then stops, before rolling back down again. The height of the stopping point is less than
that of the starting point. What is the sequence of energy changes between starting and
stopping for the first time?

5 In a factory, two men X and Y try to move identical heavy boxes P and Q. Man X tries to
push box P along the floor. The box does not move because an object is in the way.
Man Y lifts box Q from the floor onto a shelf.
 Which man does the most work on the box, and which box gains the most energy?

6. An aircraft, flying at a constant height, is gaining speed. The four forces acting are

L lift due to the wings

R air resistance

T the thrust due to the engines

W the weight
7. Which object is in equilibrium?

8. Which graph shows the total external pressure acting on a submarine at different depths
below the surface of the sea?

9. Five blocks have the same mass but different base areas. They all rest on a horizontal
table.

A graph is plotted to show the relationship between the pressure exerted on the table
and the base area of the block. Which graph shows this relationship?

10. The diagrams show four objects A, B, C and D. The centre of mass M of each object is
 marked on the diagrams. Which object is not in equilibrium?

11. Which chair is the least stable if the child moves?

12. The extension-load graph for a spring is shown. The unstretched length of the spring is 17.0
cm.

When an object is hung from the spring, the length of the spring is 19.2 cm.

What is the weight of the object?

A 1.4 N B 1.6 N C 2.6 N D 3.0 N

13. The diagram shows an object of weight W and an object of weight Z balanced on a uniform
metre rule.

Which equation relating to W, Z, a and b is correct?

14. The diagram shows an aeroplane turning in a horizontal circle at constant speed.
In which direction is there a resultant force?
15. The diagram shows a satellite S travelling at a constant speed in a circular orbit around a planet
P. Which statement is correct?

A The resultant force on the satellite is zero

B The resultant force on the satellite is in direction B
C The resultant force on the satellite is in direction C
D The resultant force on the satellite is in direction D

3. (a) Explain what is meant by the moment of a force.

(b) Fig. below shows a system for raising a heavy piece of metal into a vertical position.

A man pulls on the rope with a horizontal force T. The piece of metal has a weight of
2000 N and is freely pivoted at A. The system is in equilibrium. By taking moments about
A, calculate T.
