1. Convert 15 m/s into km/h.

  1. 54 km/h
  2. 45 km/h
  3. 60 km/h
  4. 36 km/h
Show answer

Answer: A

15 m/s = 15 * 36001000 = 54 km/h.

2. A lorry decelerates at 2 m/s² from 20 m/s to 10 m/s. How long did this take?

  1. 5 seconds
  2. 10 seconds
  3. 4 seconds
  4. 2.5 seconds
Show answer

Answer: A

t = v - ua = 10 - 20-2 = -10 / -2 = 5 seconds.

3. A car travels at 90 km/h for 40 minutes. Calculate the distance traveled in km.

  1. 60 km
  2. 36 km
  3. 3600 km
  4. 225 km
Show answer

Answer: A

Time = 4060 = 23 hours. Distance = 90 * (23) = 60 km.

4. An athlete accelerates from 2 m/s to 10 m/s in 4 seconds. Calculate the acceleration.

  1. 2 m/s²
  2. 3 m/s²
  3. 4 m/s²
  4. 2.5 m/s²
Show answer

Answer: A

Acceleration = 10 - 24 = 84 = 2 m/s².

5. A car travels a distance of 180 km in 2 hours. What is its speed in km/h?

  1. 90 km/h
  2. 360 km/h
  3. 60 km/h
  4. 100 km/h
Show answer

Answer: A

Speed = Distance / Time = 180 km / 2 h = 90 km/h.

6. Find the speed of a jet that flies 1800 km in 2 hours 30 minutes.

  1. 720 km/h
  2. 900 km/h
  3. 750 km/h
  4. 800 km/h
Show answer

Answer: A

Time = 2.5 hours. Speed = 18002.5 = 720 km/h.

7. Convert an acceleration of 72 km/h² to m/s².

  1. 0.00556 m/s²
  2. 20 m/s²
  3. 0.2 m/s²
  4. 2 m/s²
Show answer

Answer: A

72 km/h² = 72 * 1000 m3600 * 3600 s² = 7200012960000 = 0.00556 m/s².

8. An object moving at a uniform speed of 15 m/s has an acceleration of:

  1. 0 m/s²
  2. 15 m/s²
  3. 1 m/s²
  4. Cannot be determined
Show answer

Answer: A

Uniform speed means no change in speed over time, so acceleration = 0 m/s².

9. If a vehicle maintains a constant speed of 25 m/s, how far will it travel in 1 minute?

  1. 1500 m
  2. 25 m
  3. 250 m
  4. 150 m
Show answer

Answer: A

Time = 1 min = 60 s. Distance = 25 * 60 = 1500 m.

10. An object accelerates from rest (0 m/s) to 24 m/s in 6 seconds. Find its acceleration.

  1. 4 m/s²
  2. 144 m/s²
  3. 6 m/s²
  4. 2 m/s²
Show answer

Answer: A

Acceleration = v - ut = 24 - 06 = 4 m/s².
