1. A box is moved by a 15 N force over a distance of 3 m. What is the amount of work that has been done?

• A. 5 W
• B. 5 N⋅m
• C. 45 W
• D. 45 N⋅m

Correct answer: D

Rationale: Work done is calculated using the formula: Work = Force x Distance. In this case, the force applied is 15 N and the distance covered is 3 m. Thus, work done = 15 N x 3 m = 45 N⋅m. Therefore, the correct answer is 45 N⋅m. Choice A (5 W) is incorrect because work is measured in joules (J) or newton-meters (N⋅m), not in watts (W). Choice B (5 N⋅m) is incorrect as it miscalculates the work by not multiplying the force by the distance. Choice C (45 W) is incorrect because work is not measured in watts (W) but in newton-meters (N⋅m).

2. Faraday's law of electromagnetic induction states that a changing magnetic field in a conductor induces a/an:

• A. Increase in resistance
• B. Electromotive force
• C. Static electric charge
• D. Decrease in capacitance

Correct answer: B

Rationale: Faraday's law of electromagnetic induction states that a changing magnetic field induces an electromotive force in a conductor. This electromotive force is responsible for generating electricity in power plants and various electrical devices. The induced current is a result of the changing magnetic field, not an increase in resistance (choice A), static electric charge (choice C), or a decrease in capacitance (choice D). Hence, the correct answer is B.

3. A car, starting from rest, accelerates at 10 m/s² for 5 seconds. What is the velocity of the car after 5 seconds?

• A. 2 m/s
• B. 5 m/s
• C. 50 m/s
• D. The answer cannot be determined from the information given.

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The velocity of an object can be calculated using the formula: final velocity = initial velocity + (acceleration × time). In this case, the car starts from rest, so the initial velocity is 0 m/s. Given that the acceleration is 10 m/s² and the time is 5 seconds, we can plug these values into the formula to find the final velocity: final velocity = 0 m/s + (10 m/s² × 5 s) = 0 m/s + 50 m/s = 50 m/s. Therefore, the velocity of the car after 5 seconds is 50 m/s. Choice A (2 m/s) and Choice B (5 m/s) are incorrect because they do not consider the acceleration the car undergoes over the 5 seconds, resulting in a final velocity greater than both. Choice D (The answer cannot be determined from the information given) is incorrect as the final velocity can be determined using the provided data and the kinematic equation.

4. A 110-volt appliance draws 0 amperes. How many watts of power does it require?

• A. 0 watts
• B. 108 watts
• C. 112 watts
• D. 220 watts

Correct answer: A

Rationale: When a 110-volt appliance draws 0 amperes, it means that the power consumption is zero as well. The formula to calculate power is P = V x I, where P is power in watts, V is voltage in volts, and I is current in amperes. Since the current is 0 amperes, the power required by the appliance is also 0 watts. Therefore, the correct answer is 0 watts. Choice B, 108 watts, is incorrect because there is no current drawn. Choice C, 112 watts, and choice D, 220 watts, are incorrect as well since the appliance is not consuming any power when drawing 0 amperes.

5. What is the net force acting on the car?

• A. 450 N
• B. 700 N
• C. 1,500 N
• D. 6,300 N

Correct answer: C

Rationale: To determine the net force acting on an object, we need to consider the sum of the forces acting in the same direction and subtract the forces acting in the opposite direction. In this scenario, there is a force of 4,200 N to the right and a force of 2,700 N to the left. By subtracting the leftward force from the rightward force (4,200 N - 2,700 N), we find that the net force acting on the car is 1,500 N to the right. Therefore, choice C, 1,500 N, is the correct answer. Choice A, 450 N, is too small as it does not account for the total forces involved. Choice B, 700 N, is also incorrect as it is not the result of the correct mathematical operation on the given forces. Choice D, 6,300 N, is too large and does not align with the calculation based on the forces provided.
