1. Newton’s First Law states that an object will remain at rest
or in uniform motion unless acted upon by a:
A. Magnetic field
B. Net external force
C. Gravitational field only
D. Frictional force only
Rationale: Newton’s First Law defines inertia; motion changes
only when a net external force acts.
Correct Answer: B
2. The SI unit of force is:
A. Joule
B. Watt
C. Newton
D. Pascal
Rationale: Force is measured in Newtons (N), derived from
kg·m/s².
Correct Answer: C
,3. Velocity differs from speed because velocity includes:
A. Mass
B. Acceleration
C. Direction
D. Time only
Rationale: Velocity is a vector quantity including magnitude
and direction.
Correct Answer: C
4. Acceleration is defined as:
A. Distance/time
B. Change in velocity/time
C. Force/mass
D. Work/time
Rationale: Acceleration is rate of change of velocity with time.
Correct Answer: B
5. The area under a velocity-time graph represents:
A. Acceleration
B. Displacement
C. Force
D. Momentum
,Rationale: Integral of velocity over time gives displacement.
Correct Answer: B
6. Newton’s Second Law is expressed as:
A. F = mv
B. F = ma
C. F = m/a
D. F = v/t
Rationale: Force equals mass times acceleration.
Correct Answer: B
7. Work is defined as:
A. Force × distance in direction of force
B. Force ÷ distance
C. Mass × velocity
D. Power × time²
Rationale: Work depends on force applied and displacement.
Correct Answer: A
8. The unit of energy is:
A. Newton
B. Joule
, C. Pascal
D. Ampere
Rationale: Energy and work are measured in Joules.
Correct Answer: B
9. Kinetic energy depends on:
A. Mass and velocity squared
B. Force and time
C. Height and gravity
D. Pressure and volume
Rationale: KE = ½mv².
Correct Answer: A
10. Potential energy near Earth’s surface is given by:
A. mv²
B. mgh
C. Fd
D. Pt
Rationale: Gravitational potential energy depends on height.
Correct Answer: B
11. Momentum is defined as:
