Sample Questions

1multiple choice
3 marks

A car of mass 1000 kg starts from rest and reaches 72 km h^-1 in 10 s. What is the power of the engine?

Show answer

20,000 W

From the previous calculation, work done is 200,000 J. Power = W/t = 200,000/10 = 20,000 W.

A cricket ball of mass 0.2 kg is bowled at 154.8 km h^-1. What is its kinetic energy?

Show answer

184.9 J

Convert speed: 154.8 km h^-1 = 43 m s^-1. Then K = 1/2 mv^2 = 1/2 × 0.2 × 43^2 = 0.1 × 1849 = 184.9 J.

A cricket ball of mass 0.2 kg is thrown so that it reaches a height of 10 m. Taking g = 10 m s^-2, what is its gravitational potential energy at the top?

Show answer

20 J

Use U = mgh = 0.2 × 10 × 10 = 20 J.

4multiple choice

A child slides down from a height of h and reaches the bottom with speed v, neglecting friction. If h = 5 m and g = 10 m s^-2, what is the speed at the bottom?

Show answer

10 m s^-1

Use conservation of mechanical energy: mgh = 1/2 mv^2. Mass cancels, so v = sqrt(2gh) = sqrt(2 × 10 × 5) = sqrt(100) = 10 m s^-1.
