1. A 3-volt flashlight uses a bulb with 60-ohm resistance. What current flows through the flashlight?

• A. o.05 amp
• B. o.5 amp
• C. 1.8 amp
• D. 18 amp

Correct answer: A

Rationale: : Using Ohm's Law, I = V / R: I = 3 / 60 = 0.05 amp. So, the correct current is 0.05 amp.

2. A bicycle and a car are both traveling at a rate of 5 m/s. Which statement is true?

• A. The bicycle has more kinetic energy than the car.
• B. The bicycle has less kinetic energy than the car.
• C. Both vehicles have the same amount of kinetic energy.
• D. Only the car has kinetic energy.

Correct answer: B

Rationale: Kinetic energy is determined by both the mass and the velocity of an object. While both the bicycle and the car are moving at the same velocity (5 m/s), the car has significantly more mass than the bicycle. As a result, the car has more kinetic energy than the bicycle, even though their speeds are identical. Therefore, choice B is correct. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect because they do not consider the influence of mass on kinetic energy. Choice A is incorrect as the car has more kinetic energy due to its greater mass. Choice C is incorrect because the vehicles have different masses. Choice D is incorrect as both the bicycle and the car possess kinetic energy.

3. Two objects attract each other with a gravitational force of 12 units. If the distance between them is halved, what is the new force of attraction between the two objects?

• A. 3 units
• B. 6 units
• C. 24 units
• D. 48 units

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The gravitational force between two objects is inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them. When the distance is halved, the new force of attraction will be 12 units x (1/(0.5)^2) = 12 units x 4 = 24 units. Therefore, the correct answer is C. Choice A and B are incorrect as they do not consider the inverse square law of gravitational force. Choice D is incorrect as reducing the distance between the objects does not lead to a squared increase in force.

4. A wave moves through its medium at 20 m/s with a wavelength of 4 m. What is the frequency of the wave?

• A. 5 s−1
• B. 16 s−1
• C. 24 s−1
• D. 80 s−1

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The formula to calculate the frequency of a wave is given by:

5. Two objects attract each other with a gravitational force of 12 units. If you double the mass of both objects, what is the new force of attraction between them?

• A. 3 units
• B. 6 units
• C. 24 units
• D. 48 units

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The gravitational force between two objects is directly proportional to the product of their masses. When you double the masses of both objects, the force of attraction between them increases by a factor of 2 x 2 = 4. Therefore, the new force of attraction between the two objects will be 12 units x 4 = 24 units. Choices A, B, and D are incorrect because doubling the mass results in a quadruple increase in force, not a linear one.
