1. For the core of an electromagnet, a material with high:

• A. Resistivity is ideal
• B. Permeability is preferred
• C. Permittivity is crucial
• D. Dielectric strength is essential

Correct answer: B

Rationale: A material with high permeability is preferred for the core of an electromagnet because it allows magnetic field lines to pass through it easily, enhancing the strength of the magnetic field generated. Choice A is incorrect because high resistivity would impede the flow of current in the coil, reducing the strength of the magnetic field. Choice C is incorrect as permittivity is related to electric fields, not magnetic fields. Choice D is also incorrect because dielectric strength is about insulating materials against breakdown under an electric field, not relevant to enhancing magnetic fields.

2. A 10-kg object moving at 5 m/s has an impulse acted on it causing the velocity to change to 15 m/s. What was the impulse that was applied to the object?

• A. 10 kg⋅m/s
• B. 15 kg⋅m/s
• C. 20 kg⋅m/s
• D. 100 kg⋅m/s

Correct answer: D

Rationale: Impulse is the change in momentum of an object. The initial momentum is calculated as 10 kg × 5 m/s = 50 kg⋅m/s, and the final momentum is 10 kg × 15 m/s = 150 kg⋅m/s. The change in momentum (impulse) is 150 kg⋅m/s - 50 kg⋅m/s = 100 kg⋅m/s. Therefore, the impulse applied to the object is 100 kg⋅m/s. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect because they do not reflect the correct calculation of the impulse based on the change in momentum of the object.

3. Jon walks all the way around a rectangular park that is 1 km × 2 km. Which statement is true about Jon’s walk?

• A. The displacement of his walk is 3 kilometers, and the distance traveled is 0 kilometers.
• B. The displacement of his walk is 0 kilometers, and the distance traveled is 16 kilometers.
• C. The displacement of his walk is 6 kilometers, and the distance traveled is 0 kilometers.
• D. The displacement of his walk is 0 kilometers, and the distance traveled is 6 kilometers.

Correct answer: D

Rationale: Jon walks all the way around a rectangular park that is 1 km × 2 km, which means he walks a total distance of 6 kilometers (1 km + 2 km + 1 km + 2 km = 6 km). However, the displacement of his walk is 0 kilometers because he starts and ends at the same point after completing the rectangular path around the park. Displacement refers to the change in position from the starting point to the ending point, regardless of the actual distance traveled. Choice A is incorrect because the total distance traveled by Jon is 6 kilometers, not 0 kilometers. Choice B is incorrect as the displacement is not 0 kilometers, and the distance traveled is 6 kilometers, not 16 kilometers. Choice C is incorrect because the displacement is 0 kilometers, and the distance traveled is 6 kilometers, not 0 kilometers.

4. An object with a charge of 4 μC is placed 1 meter from another object with a charge of 2 μC. What is the magnitude of the resulting force between the objects?

• A. 0.04 N
• B. 0.072 N
• C. 80 N
• D. 8 × 10−6 N

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To find the magnitude of the resulting force between two charges, we can use Coulomb's law, which states that the force is directly proportional to the product of the charges and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them. The formula for Coulomb's law is: F = k × (|q1 × q2| / r²), where F is the force, k is the Coulomb constant, q1 and q2 are the charges, and r is the distance between the charges. Substituting the given values into the formula: F = (9 × 10⁹ N·m²/C²) × ((4 × 10⁻⁶ C) × (2 × 10⁻⁶ C) / (1 m)²) = 0.04 N. Therefore, the magnitude of the resulting force between the objects is 0.04 N.

5. An object moves 100 m in 10 s. What is the velocity of the object over this time?

• A. 10 m/s
• B. 90 m/s
• C. 110 m/s
• D. 1,000 m/s

Correct answer: A

Rationale: Velocity is calculated as the displacement divided by the time taken to cover that displacement. In this case, the object moves 100 meters in 10 seconds. Therefore, the velocity is 100 m / 10 s = 10 m/s. Choice B, 90 m/s, is incorrect as it doesn't match the calculated velocity. Choice C, 110 m/s, is incorrect as it is higher than the calculated velocity. Choice D, 1,000 m/s, is incorrect as it is significantly higher than the calculated velocity.
