MULTIPLE CHOICE bb
1. Power is a measure of which of the following?
bb bb bb bb bb bb bb bb
a. Mechanical energy bb
b. Gravitational potential energy bb bb
c. The rate at which work is being performed
bb bb bb bb bb bb bb
d. The rate at which atoms and molecules move
bb bb bb bb bb bb bb
ANSWER: C bb
Power is a measure of the rate at which work is being performed. The formula P = W/J,
bb bb bb bb bb bb bb bb bb bb bb bb bb bb bb bb bb
bb whereW = watts and 1 watt is equal to 1 J/s, expresses this. Joules are the international

3. The unit used to express the force of 1 newton (N) acting on a 1-kilogram (kg) object to
bb bb bb bb bb bb bb bb bb bb bb bb bb bb bb bb bb
bb moveit 1 meter (m) is which of the following?
b bb bb bb bb bb bb bb bb
a. Watt c. Kilowatt
b. Joule d. b b Kinetic energy bb
ANSWER: B bb
One joule is equal to the force of 1 N acting on 1 kg. A watt is equivalent to 1 J/s. A kilowatt
bb bb bb bb bb bb bb bb bb bb bb bb bb bb bb bb bb bb bb bb bb bb
issimply 1000 W. Kinetic energy is energy an object possesses when it is in motion.
