Weekly Test in Physics (August 2, 2013)


I.                    Identification. Identify the following.

1.       It is a subbranch of classical physics that focuses on forces acting on bodies whether at rest or in motion.
2.       Object or background used for comparing different positions of an object.
3.       Refers to the movement of an object.
4.       Motion of an object travelling in a curved path.
5.       Continuous change of position with respect to a certain reference point.
6.       It is the symbol for distance
7.       It is exhibited by a change in position.
8.       Motion of an object travelling in a straight path.
9.       The total length of a path travelled or covered by an object.
10.   Motion of an object travelling in a straight path.
11.   It focuses on the way in which forces combine with each other so as to produce equilibrium.
12.   Straight line distance between the starting and end points.
13.   It focuses on the way in which force produces motion.
14.   It focuses on the motion of a body without regard to the cause of that motion.
15.   It is the symbol of displacement.

II.                  Classification. Classify the following if it is under Kinematics, Dynamics and Statics.

1.       hanging picture frame
2.       pushing a big box
3.       fast motion of a car
4.       pulling a toy car
5.       stationary cabinet
6.       the distance travelled by a boy
7.       change of direction of a typhoon
8.       chair at rest
9.       slowing down vehicle
10.   lifting a bag

III.                Problem Solving. Solve for the distance and displacement in the following problem. Show your complete solution.

1.       A boy walks 7 km West then 4 km North and finally 4 km East. How far is he from his starting position? What is the total distance of the boy?
2.       To get from one office to another in Makati, one travels as follows (with all angles measured clockwise from the West): 2 m at 180⁰, 0.5 m at 150⁰ and 1.0 m at 30⁰. Find the total distance and the displacement.
