PHYS 101 ACTUAL TEST PAPER 2026
QUESTIONS WITH SOLUTIONS GRADED A+
◉MD! average velocity . Answer: average slope between two points
on velocity time graph
◉MD1: acceleration . Answer: rate fo change of velocity.
a=change in v/ change in t
◉MD1: area under the graph does what . Answer: does the anti
derivative.(area under v-t graph finds displacement, area under a-t
graph finds velocity)
◉MD1: interpreting graphs for acceleration. concave up and down .
Answer: in position vs time graph open up means positive
acceleration
open down means negative accel
◉Free fall . Answer: motion is from gravitys acceleration only
◉Speed during free fall . Answer: can increase or decrease but is
never constance
, ◉adding vectors . Answer: tip to tail
◉subtract vectors . Answer:
◉uniform circular motion . Answer: uniform means fixed radius
speed is constant
direction is changing
magnitude is accelerating towards the center
◉Projectile motion . Answer: a(y)=g and x(x)=o
◉Newtons 1st law (and inertia) . Answer: if there is zero force on an
object then the speed and direction will not change
Inertia is the tendency to do nothing
◉newtons 2nd law . Answer: a nonzero motion acting on an object
with change its motion F=ma
◉Types of forces (contact forces) . Answer: must touch object to
exert force
normal-on surface
