SLED WARS GIZMO TEST PAPER 2026
QUESTIONS WITH SOLUTIONS GRADED A+
◉ Golf drives travel much farther than Major League home runs.
Why might this be? Answer: it is smaller/denser; less air resistance
◉ projectile motion Answer: the movement of objects through space
(like a ball)
◉ trajectory Answer: the curved path an object takes through the air
◉ air resistance Answer: The force acts in an opposite direction to
the object moving through the air
◉ why would the curve of a trajectory be slightly steeper on the
right than on the left Answer: air resistance
◉ The Moon has much less gravity than Earth and has an extremely
thin atmosphere. How would these factors affect the trajectory of a
golf ball on the Moon? Answer: With much lower gravity and much
less air resistance, the golf ball will stay airborne longer and travel
father.
