Everyday Physics

Subjects : science, literacy
Instructions:
  • Answer 50 questions in 15 minutes.
  • If you are not ready to take this test, you can study here.
  • Match each statement with the correct term.
  • Don't refresh. All questions and answers are randomly picked and ordered every time you load a test.

This is a study tool. The 3 wrong answers for each question are randomly chosen from answers to other questions. So, you might find at times the answers obvious, but you will see it re-enforces your understanding as you take the test each time.
1. Heat into system - work done by system






2. C / f






3. Wavelength x frequency






4. An object that is thrown or struck or shot and then travels under the influence of gravity






5. Time= the square root of 2 x height / acceleration due to gravity






6. Initial velocity = acceleration x time






7. Tube cross section area A - flow speed u vfr= u x A (m/s x m^2)






8. If the temperature of system A is less then the temperature of system B then heat flows from B to A (hot to cold)






9. Rod with forces applied at opposite ends in the same direction






10. The total force (positive and negative) acting upon an object






11. The change in internal energy= the heat absorbed- the work done

34. The first to do experimental studies of the laws of motion and was Imprisoned by Pope Urban VIII in 1633 for advocating the Copernican theory - also know as the heliocentric theory - that the earth was a planet revolving around the sun.






35. Because nothing stops it






36. The energy that flows from one system to another because of their temperature difference.
