PHY10: 1.1.2-3 Measurement of Volume and Time
Question 1
A glass tank contains some water


The length QR and the width RS of the tank are known.
Question 2
A stopwatch is used to time a race. The diagrams show the watch at the start and at the end of the race.


Question 3
The diagram shows the level of liquid in a measuring cylinder.


Question 4
The diagram shows a measuring cylinder.


Question 5
The diagram shows a stopwatch, originally set at 00:00.
When a car was first seen, the stop-start button was pressed. When the car passed the observer, the stopwatch showed 01:06.


Question 6
Question 7
A pendulum is set in motion and 20 complete swings are timed. The time measured is 30 s.
Question 8
The diagrams show the times on a stopclock at the beginning and at the end of an experiment.


Question 9
A measuring cylinder is used to measure the volume of a liquid.


Question 10
A pendulum makes 50 complete swings in 2 min 40 s.
Question 11
A student investigates a pendulum.
He measures the time for the pendulum to complete 20 oscillations.
He repeats the experiment three more times.
The readings are shown


Question 12
Five athletes P, Q, R, S and T compete in a race. The table shows the finishing times for the athletes.


Question 13
Water drips from a tap into a measuring cylinder.
The table shows the volume of water in the cylinder every minute for four minutes


Question 14
A digital stop-clock measures time in minutes and seconds.
The stop-clock reads 00:50 when it is started (i.e. 00 minutes 50 seconds).
It reads 02:10 when it is stopped.
Question 15
Diagram 1 shows a measuring cylinder containing water. A metal weight with a cork attached by a thread is held above the water.
Diagram 2 shows the apparatus after the weight has been lowered into the water.
Diagram 3 shows the apparatus after the weight and the cork have been submerged.


Question 16


Question 17
A measuring cylinder containing water is placed on a top-pan balance.
An object is placed into the measuring cylinder.
