Section A
You should spend a maximum of 20 minutes on this section.
Write your answer to each question in the box provided.
1 A car travels 9000 m in 90 seconds.
What is the car’s speed?
distance travelled
: average speed = time taken
A 0.01 m / s
B 0.1 m / s
C 10 m / s
D 100 m / s
Your answer
2 A lift is stationary 20 m above the ground.
The lift moves upwards until it is now 100 m above the ground.
The lift then remains
stationary. The mass of
the lift is 450 kg.
What is the increase in gravitational potential energy of the lift?
Gravitational field strength = 10 N / kg
Use the equation: gravitational potential energy = mass × gravitational field strength
× height
A 45.0 J
B 56.3 J
C 360 000 J
D 450 000 J
Your answer
