Sample JAMB UTME Physics 2000 questions

1. A strip is 2.4 cm long; what is its length in millimetres?
  1. 0.24 mm
  2. 24 mm
  3. 2.4 mm
  4. 240 mm

Answer: B. 24 mm

Since 1 cm = 10 mm, 2.4 cm = 24 mm.

2. Two forces of 6 N east and 8 N north act at a point; what is the magnitude of their resultant?
  1. 10 N
  2. 14 N
  3. 2 N
  4. 48 N

Answer: A. 10 N

The forces are perpendicular, so the resultant is sqrt(6^2 + 8^2) = 10 N.

3. A cyclist covers 150 m in 12.5 s at constant speed; what is the cyclist's speed?
  1. 10 m/s
  2. 11 m/s
  3. 12.5 m/s
  4. 12 m/s

Answer: D. 12 m/s

Speed is distance divided by time, giving 150/12.5 = 12 m/s.

4. A body starts from rest and accelerates uniformly at 2 m/s^2 for 5 s; how far does it travel?
  1. 10 m
  2. 20 m
  3. 25 m
  4. 50 m

Answer: C. 25 m

From rest, distance is (1/2)at^2 = (1/2)(2)(5^2) = 25 m.

5. A car moving at 2 m/s accelerates uniformly at 3 m/s^2 for 4 s; what is its final speed?
  1. 10 m/s
  2. 14 m/s
  3. 12 m/s
  4. 20 m/s

Answer: B. 14 m/s

The final speed is u + at = 2 + (3)(4) = 14 m/s.
