PAT (Physics Aptitude Test) Object Practice Questions
The free PAT (Physics Aptitude Test) questions that deal with object, with answers and explanations. The full bank and the timed practice test cover every topic the exam asks about.
Question #3
A 2 kg object is moving at 3 m/s. What is its kinetic energy?
Correct answer: A
Explanation
Kinetic energy is given by ( KE = rac{1}{2}mv^2 ), so ( KE = rac{1}{2} imes 2 imes 3^2 = 9 J ).
Question #4
An object is in free fall from a height of 45 m. Ignoring air resistance, how long will it take to hit the ground?
Correct answer: B
Explanation
The time can be calculated using ( t = \sqrt{\frac{2h}{g}} ) where ( h ) is the height and ( g ) is the acceleration due to gravity.
Question #7
An object is thrown upward at 15 m/s. How high will it rise before it starts falling?
Correct answer: D
Explanation
The maximum height can be calculated using ( h = \frac{v^2}{2g} ). Here, ( g \approx 9.81 , ext{m/s}^2 ).
Question #9
A 5 kg object is moving with a velocity of 4 m/s. What is its momentum?
Correct answer: D
Explanation
Momentum is calculated using ( p = mv ). Here, ( p = 5 imes 4 = 20 , ext{kgám/s} ).
