A hole is made in a square tile of uniform thickness. The diagram shows the tile hanging loosely on a nail.
Where is the centre of gravity of the tile?
D
Two rectangular blocks consist of different materials.
Four different methods are suggested to compare the two masses.
1 Compare the accelerations with which they fall freely.
2 Compare the values of their lengths × breadths × heights.
3 Hang each in turn from the same spring. Compare the extensions.
4 Place one in the right-hand pan of a beam balance and the other in the left-hand pan.
Which methods give a comparison of the two masses?
1, 2 and 3
1 and 2 only
3 and 4 only
4 only
C
Which property of a body results from the effect of a gravitational field on its mass?
the ability of the body to resist a change in motion
the density of the body
the volume of the body
the weight of the body
D
A box is initially at rest at the top of a rough slope.
The box slides down the slope.
The weight of the box is 20 N .
The slope is 4.0 m long and 2.0 m high.
The box does 10 J of work against friction as it slides down the slope.
What is the speed of the box as it reaches the bottom of the slope?
5.4 m/s
6.3 m/s
7.1 m/s
9.5 m/s
