100

Which way do magnetic field lines flow on the outside of the magnet?

North to south

100

True or False:

Visible light travels faster than Radio Waves (in a vacuum)


False. All light travels at the same speed in a vacuum.

100

What is a neutron star?

The core of a dead star made from neutrons.

200

True or False:

Speed and velocity are the same thing

False. speed is a scalar value while velocity is a vector value. this means that velocity needs a direction while speed doesn't

200

True or False:

Momentum is always conserved.

True. Momentum is always conserved in any system

What is the frequency of red light with a wavelength of 680nm?

f = 4.4x1014Hz


200

What is strange matter?

Matter made up of strange quarks.

A car travelling at 30km/h slows down to a speed of 10km/h over a period of 10 seconds. what is the cars acceleration during this period in m/s2?

a = -0.6 m/s2

300

An object with a mass of 100kg is flying through space at a constant 125m/s for 100 years. What is the total work done on the object?

No force is being applied therefore work is 0.

300

Two point charges with charges -0.9x108C and 1.5x108C have a separation of 1.2m. What is the electrostatic force between the charges? Are the charges attracted or repelled by each other?
