Summative Final G9 - Physics

1. The document is an assessment for an IB Middle Year Program science course. It contains 9 multi-part science questions testing concepts like forces, motion, graphs, and calculations. 2. The questions require identifying natural forces, calculating distance and displacement from a word problem, explaining balanced and unbalanced forces with diagrams, determining the fastest speed from velocity-time graphs, and calculating net force, acceleration, weight, speed, and more. 3. The questions progress from levels 1-4 to levels 5-6 and finally levels 7-8, increasing in difficulty and requiring explaining concepts in words and showing work for calculations.

General instructions

• Read instructions carefully. Satisfy the requirement of each part of this assessment.
• Answer all questions at answer space on exam.net. Show your working
• Maintain neatness in your work.
• Manage your time well.

Level 1-4
A. Content. Answer The following Questions.

1. Identify and state briefly a distinguishing fact or feature 2 Natural Forces.

2. John travels 250 miles to North but then back-tracks to South for 105
miles to pick up a friend. What is John’s total distance and
displacement?

3. Describe the difference between Balanced and unbalanced forces.


Draw an example using free body diagrams.

4 . Identify which of the following displacement–time graphs represents


the fastest speed? Explain by showing solution.
A C

B D

Level 5-6

5. a. Compute for the magnitude and identify the direction of the net force
on the box shown in the figure?

275N 95N
275N 275N

b. What would be the acceleration of the box? And in what direction will the
box accelerate?

6. The velocity–time graph for a subway train journey between two stops is
shown below.
a. What was the maximum velocity of the train?

b. Describe the motion of the train from 30s to 100s?

c. What is the difference between distance and displacement?

7. Some students investigate the speed of cars. They measure the time it
takes each car to travel a distance of 80 m.

The table shows some of their results.

a. State the colour of the slowest car.


b. Calculate the speed of the black car.
The distance-time graph for another car is shown below.

c. Describe what the graph shows about the speed of the car as it travels
the 80 m.

Level 7-8

8. A water tank drips water.

Scientists could use four quantities to describe the movement of the water
drops. Three of these quantities are vectors. The other quantity is a scalar.

Acceleration, force, mass, velocity

a. Identify the scalar quantify being described in the situation. (use one of
the quantities from the word selection above.)
Complete the following sentence using one of the quantities from the word
selection above.

b. In a vacuum, all bodies falling towards the Earth's surface have the same
..................

c. The mass of one water drop is 0.000 08 kg.

Calculate its weight. (gravitational field strength is 10 N/kg)

d. The water drop falls to the ground, 13 m below, in 1.7 s. Calculate the
average speed of the drop while it is falling.

e. The tank is a long way above the ground. It drips at a steady rate. The first
drawing shows water drops which have just left the tank. The second
drawing shows water drops which are near to the ground.

Explain why the drops which are near to the ground are an equal
distance apart but the drops which have just started to fall are not.

9. A hot-air balloon is tied to the ground by two ropes. The diagram shows the
forces acting on the balloon.

The tension T in each rope is 200 N.


The ropes are untied and the balloon starts to move upwards.

a. State the value of the force acting downwards on the balloon


immediately after the ropes are untied and before the balloon starts moving.

f. State the relationship between unbalanced force, mass and acceleration.

g. The balloon has a total mass of 910 kg. The initial unbalanced force on the
balloon is 400 N upwards.

Calculate the initial acceleration.

h. Explain how the upward acceleration of the balloon changes during the
first few seconds of its flight.

i. While the balloon is still accelerating, the pilot controls the balloon by
pouring some sand from the bags. Explain how this affects the upward
acceleration of the balloon.
