Honors Physics Final Exam Questions
and Answers Graded A+
What is the principle of inertia?
✔✔ The principle of inertia states that an object will not change its state of motion unless acted
upon by an external force.
How does friction affect the motion of an object?
✔✔ Friction opposes the motion of an object, causing it to slow down or stop.
What is the concept of momentum?
✔✔ Momentum is the quantity of motion an object has, which depends on its mass and velocity.
What is the difference between potential energy and kinetic energy?
✔✔ Potential energy is stored energy due to an object's position or state, while kinetic energy is
the energy of motion.
How does gravity affect objects on Earth?
1
, ✔✔ Gravity pulls objects towards the center of the Earth, giving them weight and causing them
to fall.
What is the purpose of a Newton's cradle?
✔✔ A Newton's cradle demonstrates the conservation of momentum and energy through a series
of pendulum-like balls.
What is meant by mechanical advantage in simple machines?
✔✔ Mechanical advantage refers to how a machine can amplify force, making it easier to lift or
move objects.
How does pressure relate to force and area?
✔✔ Pressure is the amount of force applied per unit area of a surface.
What is the difference between a scalar and a vector quantity?
✔✔ Scalar quantities have only magnitude, while vector quantities have both magnitude and
direction.
What is the role of a capacitor in an electric circuit?
