What is the function of the plasma membrane?
Produces energy
Stores genetic material
Regulates entry and exit of substances
Provides shape to the cell
Correct Answer: C — Regulates entry and exit of substances
Explanation:
The plasma membrane controls the movement of substances into and out of the cell.
What is the speed of sound in water?
1200 m/s
343 m/s
5000 m/s
1500 m/s
Correct Answer: D — 1500 m/s

The speed of sound in water is approximately 1500 m/s.
Sound waves are examples of what type of waves?
Electromagnetic waves
Surface waves
Longitudinal waves
Transverse waves
Correct Answer: C — Longitudinal waves
Explanation:
Sound waves are longitudinal because particles vibrate parallel to the direction of wave propagation.
Which of the following represents the best example of energy conservation?
A battery being charged
A pendulum swinging back and forth
Water freezing into ice
A car accelerating on a highway
Correct Answer: B — A pendulum swinging back and forth
Explanation:
A pendulum continuously converts kinetic energy into potential energy and back.
What is the power consumed by a 60-watt bulb in 2 hours?
120 Wh
60 Wh
120 W
720 W
Correct Answer: A — 120 Wh
Explanation:
Energy consumed = Power × Time = 60 W × 2 h = 120 Wh.
What is the energy possessed by an object due to its position or configuration called?
Thermal energy
Potential energy
Radiant energy
Kinetic energy
Correct Answer: B — Potential energy
Explanation:
Potential energy is stored energy due to position or configuration.
If the displacement is zero, what is the work done by the force?
Infinite
Negative
Zero
Positive
Correct Answer: C — Zero
Explanation:
Work done is zero when there is no displacement.
Which of the following objects experiences gravitational force?
Only the Moon
Any object with mass
Only objects near the Earth's surface
Only Earth
Correct Answer: B — Any object with mass
Explanation:
Gravitational force acts between all objects that have mass.
What is the relationship between weight and mass?
Weight is independent of mass
Weight is inversely proportional to mass
Weight is proportional to mass
Weight is proportional to volume
Correct Answer: C — Weight is proportional to mass
Explanation:
Weight increases with mass because weight depends on gravitational force.
Which of the following is true about gravitational force?
It is always attractive
It is a contact force
It depends on the color of the object
It is a non-contact force
Correct Answer: A — It is always attractive
Explanation:
Gravitational force is always attractive between masses.
What is the value of acceleration due to gravity on Earth?
10 m/s²
9.8 m/s
9.8 m/s²
9.8 N/kg
Correct Answer: C — 9.8 m/s²
Explanation:
The acceleration due to gravity on Earth is approximately 9.8 m/s².
Which of the following is an example of an action and reaction pair according to Newton's Third Law of Motion?
A person pushing a wall
A ball falling to the ground
A car accelerating
A rocket lifting off
Correct Answer: A — A person pushing a wall
Explanation:
When a person pushes a wall, the wall pushes back with an equal and opposite force.
Which law explains why a person feels pushed back when a car suddenly accelerates?
Newton's Third Law
Newton's First Law
Newton's Second Law
Law of Universal Gravitation
Correct Answer: B — Newton's First Law
Explanation:
Newton's First Law explains inertia, which causes the body to resist changes in motion.
Which law explains the relationship between force and motion?
Newton's First Law
Law of Universal Gravitation
Newton's Third Law
Newton's Second Law
Correct Answer: D — Newton's Second Law
Explanation:
Newton's Second Law relates force, mass, and acceleration through F = ma.
Which of the following describes an object in motion?
It is moving with constant velocity
It is at rest
It is changing position over time
It is moving in a straight line
Correct Answer: C — It is changing position over time
Explanation:
An object is in motion if its position changes with time.
What is the term for motion along a straight line?
Circular motion
Rectilinear motion
Vibrational motion
Rotational motion
Correct Answer: B — Rectilinear motion
Explanation:
Motion along a straight path is called rectilinear motion.
An object travels 10 m east and then 10 m west. What is its displacement?
20 m
10 m
0 m
5 m
Correct Answer: C — 0 m
Explanation:
The object returns to its starting point, so displacement is zero.
