Chapter 12 and 13 Final Review

Which of the following is a true statement about work?

• It measures how quickly an object accelerates 
• It measures how much effort is applied over a certain distance
• It measures the change in an object's rate of speed
• It measures how much time it takes to move a massive object

A kid applies a force of 70 N to a ball over 1.1 meters. How much work did he do on the ball? 

• 77 J
• 7.7 J 
• 0.7 J 
• 770 J 

A weightlifter lifts two 300 newton weights 1.5 meters off the ground. How much work has he done?

• 600 J 
• 660 J
• 900 J 
• 1200 J 

Which of these is a measure of force?

• 100 newtons
• 100 meters per second
• 100 joules
• 100 watts

You move a 12-newton box up a 6-meter ramp. In order to find out how much power you created, what would you need to know?

• The mass of the box
• The slope of the ramp 
• The direction the box moved
• How long the task took

You do 90 joules of work in 30 seconds. How much power have you generated?

• 30 watts
• 3 watts
• 120 watts
• 270 watts

You move an 8-newton weight five meters in 4 seconds. How much power have you generated?

• 160 watts
• 10 watts
• 6.4 watts
• 17 watts

Two factors that determine work are

• size of the force, and distance
• size of the force, and type of force
• mass, and distance

work is a measurement of how much force is applied over a certain

• distance
• velocity
• shape
• size

units for work are

• netwons
• joules
• meters
• seconds
