Introduction
Welcome to this tutorial on Physics multiple-choice questions. In this session, we will solve commonly asked questions in JAMB, WAEC, NECO, and GCE exams. These questions cover force, work, velocity-time graphs, and resistance, which are core topics for students preparing for both national and international exams.
You can watch the full class in the video below:
Question 1: SI Unit of Force
Question:
The SI unit of force is:
- A) Newton
- B) Joule
- C) Watt
- D) Meter
Explanation:
The correct answer is Newton.
- Newton is the standard international (SI) unit for force.
- Joule is used to measure energy or work done.
- Watt is used to measure power.
- Meter is used to measure distance.
Correct Answer: A) Newton
Question 2: Work Done Moving a Charge
Question:
The work done in moving a charge of 1 coulomb through a potential difference of 1 volt is:
- A) 1 Joule
- B) 1 Newton
- C) 1 Coulomb
- D) 1 Watt
Explanation:
Work (W) is defined as: W=Q×VW = Q \times VW=Q×V
Where Q is charge and V is potential difference.
Substitute the values: 1 C×1 V=1 Joule1 \text{ C} \times 1 \text{ V} = 1 \text{ Joule}1 C×1 V=1 Joule
Correct Answer: A) 1 Joule
Question 3: Velocity-Time Graph for Uniform Velocity
Question:
The velocity-time graph of an object moving with a uniform velocity is:
- A) A straight line
- B) A curve
- C) A horizontal line
- D) A diagonal line
Explanation:
When an object moves with uniform velocity, the velocity remains constant over time. The graph is a horizontal line parallel to the time axis.
Correct Answer: C) Horizontal line
Question 4: Effect of Temperature on Resistance
Question:
The resistance of a conductor is:
- A) Independent of temperature
- B) Inversely proportional to temperature
- C) Directly proportional to temperature
- D) Constant at all temperatures
Explanation:
For most conductors, resistance increases with temperature. Therefore, resistance is directly proportional to temperature.
Correct Answer: C) Directly proportional to temperature
Question 5: Acceleration in Circular Motion
Question:
A body moves in a circular path with uniform speed. The acceleration is:
- A) Zero
- B) Constant
- C) Centripetal
- D) Radial
Explanation:
When a body moves in a circular path with uniform speed, the acceleration is directed toward the center of the circle. This is called centripetal acceleration.
Correct Answer: C) Centripetal
