Newton's first law of motion is also known as the law of:
A Acceleration
B Inertia
C Action and reaction
D Momentum
Correct Answer:  B. Inertia
EXPLANATION

Newton's first law states that an object at rest remains at rest unless acted upon by an external force - this is the law of inertia.

Test
A force of 50 N is applied at 60° to the horizontal surface. The vertical component of the force is:
A 25 N
B 43.3 N
C 50 N
D 86.6 N
Correct Answer:  B. 43.3 N
EXPLANATION

Vertical component = F sin(60°) = 50 × (√3/2) = 50 × 0.866 = 43.3 N

Test
Which of the following represents a scalar quantity?
A Displacement
B Velocity
C Mass
D Acceleration
Correct Answer:  C. Mass
EXPLANATION

Mass is a scalar quantity as it has magnitude only, not direction. Displacement, velocity, and acceleration are vectors.

Test
A ball is thrown horizontally from a cliff of height 80 m with initial velocity 20 m/s. What is the time taken to reach the ground? (g = 10 m/s²)
A 4 seconds
B 5 seconds
C 6 seconds
D 8 seconds
Correct Answer:  A. 4 seconds
EXPLANATION

Using h = ½gt², 80 = ½(10)t², t² = 16, t = 4 seconds

Test
A particle moving in a circle of radius r = 2 m completes 5 revolutions in 10 seconds. What is its angular velocity?
A π rad/s
B 2π rad/s
C 3π rad/s
D 0.5π rad/s
Correct Answer:  A. π rad/s
EXPLANATION

Angular displacement = 5 × 2π = 10π radians. Time = 10 seconds. Angular velocity ω = 10π/10 = π rad/s

Test
A particle experiences two perpendicular accelerations: aₓ = 3 m/s² and aᵧ = 4 m/s². What is the magnitude of the net acceleration?
A 5 m/s²
B 7 m/s²
C 1 m/s²
D 12 m/s²
Correct Answer:  A. 5 m/s²
EXPLANATION

Net acceleration = √(aₓ² + aᵧ²) = √(3² + 4²) = √(9 + 16) = √25 = 5 m/s²

Test
A body slides down a frictionless incline of angle 30°. What is the acceleration along the plane?
A 5 m/s²
B 10 m/s²
C 8.66 m/s²
D 2.5 m/s²
Correct Answer:  A. 5 m/s²
EXPLANATION

On a frictionless incline: a = g sin θ = 10 × sin(30°) = 10 × 0.5 = 5 m/s²

Test
An elevator with a mass of 1000 kg is moving upward with acceleration 2 m/s². What is the tension in the cable? (g = 10 m/s²)
A 8000 N
B 10000 N
C 12000 N
D 15000 N
Correct Answer:  C. 12000 N
EXPLANATION

Using Newton's second law: T - mg = ma. T = m(g + a) = 1000(10 + 2) = 1000 × 12 = 12000 N

Test
A particle moves along a circular path of radius 5 m with a constant speed of 20 m/s. What is the centripetal acceleration?
A 20 m/s²
B 40 m/s²
C 60 m/s²
D 80 m/s²
Correct Answer:  D. 80 m/s²
EXPLANATION

Centripetal acceleration aᶜ = v²/r = (20)²/5 = 400/5 = 80 m/s²

Test
A vehicle increases its speed from 18 km/h to 54 km/h in 8 seconds. What is the acceleration of the vehicle?
A 1.25 m/s²
B 2.5 m/s²
C 3.75 m/s²
D 5 m/s²
Correct Answer:  A. 1.25 m/s²
EXPLANATION

Initial velocity u = 18 km/h = 5 m/s. Final velocity v = 54 km/h = 15 m/s. Time t = 8 s. Using a = (v - u)/t = (15 - 5)/8 = 10/8 = 1.25 m/s²
