(a) magnetism (b) thrust (c) gravity ( (d) density (e) friction 2. According to Newton’s second law of motion, mass is inversely proportional to ( (a) acceleration (b) force (c) weight (d) velocity (e) time 3. If an object is moving in circular motion, the acceleration is ( (a) inwards (b) outwards (c) sideways (d) upwards (e) downwards 4. An object will continue to move in a straight line and at constant velocity unless acted on by forces which are (a) large (b) equal ( (c) unbalanced (d) opposite in direction (e) cancelled out 5. The S.I. unit of energy is the (a) Watt (b) Calorie (c) Gram (d) Newton ( (e) Joule 6. Pressure is the ratio of (a) area to volume ( (b) force to area (c) weight to area (d) volume to mass (e) density to mass 7. This term describes how much energy is required to change the temperature of a mass of a given substance (a) latent heat (b) boiling point (c) evaporation ( (d) heat capacity (e) internal energy 8. Latent heat of vaporisation describes an energy change during which there is (a) no change in temperature ) (b) energy absorbed as liquid becomes gas ) (c) energy released as gas becomes liquid ) any of these (d) an increase in internal energy of a substance ) (e) no change in the average kinetic energy of the particles ) 9.
