Document Content and Description Below

How does the speed of a car affect its stopping distance at maximum braking force? Higher speed results in a shorter stopping distance. Higher speed results in a longer stopping distance. The speed of the car doesn’t matter. 2. A teapot, weighing 10 N, is sat stationary on a table. What is the normal contact force applied to the teapot by the table? 0 N. -10 N. -20 N. 3. Which of these is a typical running speed for a person? 1 m/s. 3 m/s. 12 m/s. 4. When a skydiver opens their parachute, their speed decreases because ... ... the air resistance acting on them increases. ... the air resistance acting on them decreases. ... their weight decreases. 5. Brakes heat up when they are used because energy is transferred from … … the thermal energy stores of the brakes to the kinetic energy stores of the wheels. … the kinetic energy stores of the wheels to the thermal energy stores of the brakes. … the thermal energy stores of the wheels to the kinetic energy stores of the brakes. 6. State Newton’s First Law of motion. …………………………………………………………………………………………………….. ……………………………………………………………………………………………………..3 7. (a) A car travels on a straight road at 17.0 m/s. Calculate the distance travelled by the car in three minutes. ………………………………………………………………………………………………………. ………………………………………………………………………………………………………. Distance = …………………….. m (b) A second car travels on the same road at 20.0 m/s, but it began its journey one minute after the first car from part (a). Calculate the distance between the cars, 2 minutes after the second car began its journey. ………………………………………………………………………………………………………. ………………………………………………………………………………………………………. Distance between cars = …………………….. m 8. A cyclist is out for a ride. They warm up for 10 minutes and cover a distance of 3km. They then cycle at a higher speed for 25 minutes covering 12km. They then warm-down for 5 minutes in which they cover a distance of 1,200m. Calculate the cyclist’s average speed for the whole ride. ………………………………………………………………………………………………………. ………………………………………………………………………………………………………. ………………………………………………………………………………………………………. Average speed = …………………….. m/s 9. The speed of light in a vacuum (space) is 3.0 x 108 m/s. Our Sun is 150 million kilometres away from Earth. Calculate the time it takes light to reach us from the Sun, in minutes and seconds. ………………………………………………………………………………………………………. ………………………………………………………………………………………………………. Time taken = …………….mins …………………secs 10. Two cannons are 1km apart and are aimed at each other. They both fire at exactly the same moment. The shell from the first cannon travels at 250 m/s, but the shell from the second travels at 300 m/s. Calculate the distance from the first cannon to the point where the shells cross and the time that has elapsed after firing. ………………………………………………………………………………………………………. ………………………………………………………………………………………………………. ………………………………………………………………………………………………………. ………………………………………………………………………………………………………. ………………………………………………………………………………………………………. Distance from first cannon = ……………………...m; Time after firing
