Sample questions

1. 1.A ball of mass $m$ is dropped from height $h$. Which statement is correct?
   • A.kinetic energy of the ball at ground level is mgh.
   • B.Potential energy of the ball at ground level is mgh.
   • C.Potential energy of the ball at height $h$ is mgh.
   • D.both (b) and (c)
2. 2.State and define the S.I. unit of power.
   • A.The S.I. unit of power is the watt (W), defined as the power when 1 joule of work is done in 1 second.
   • B.The S.I. unit of power is the joule (J), defined as the work done when 1 newton acts over 1 meter.
   • C.The S.I. unit of power is the newton (N), defined as the force required to accelerate 1 kg at 1 m/s².
   • D.The S.I. unit of power is the volt (V), defined as the potential difference when 1 joule of energy is used per coulomb.
3. 3.In the diagram of an oscillating simple pendulum (shown below), which statement correctly describes the energy changes during oscillation?
   • A.Potential energy is maximum at the lowest point and zero at the highest points.
   • B.Kinetic energy is maximum at the highest points and zero at the lowest point.
   • C.Total mechanical energy remains constant throughout the oscillation.
   • D.Potential energy increases continuously as the pendulum swings.
