    AP Physics Practice Test:

    Motion in One-Dimension
    This test covers one-dimensional kinematics, including speed, velocity, acceleration, motion graphs, with
    some problems requiring a knowledge of basic calculus.

    Part I. Multiple Choice

    1. A rock is released from rest from the top of a very high cliff, and accelerates downward at g.
    Approximately how far does the rock travel in the first 7 seconds of its free-fall? (Assume no air friction.)
    a. 35 m
    b. 70 m
    c. 180 m
    d. 245 m
    e. 490 m

    2. A projectile is fired horizontally from a height of 20 meters above the ground, with an initial velocity of
    7.0 m/s. How far does the projectile travel horizontally before it reaches the ground?
    a. 7m
    b. 14m
    c. 140m
    d. 3.5m
    e. 20m

    3. An object is launched into the air at an angle less than 90° above the surface of the earth. Air resistance is
    negligible. At the highest point in its path of motion, which of the following statements is true?
    a. It has no vertical velocity and no vertical acceleration.
    b. It has no horizontal velocity and no vertical acceleration.
    c. It has vertical velocity and no horizontal acceleration.
    d. It has horizontal velocity and no vertical acceleration.
    e. It has no vertical velocity and no horizontal acceleration.

    4. A particle begins from rest at a point +10 meters from the origin at time t = 0, and begins accelerating at
    a constant 2 m/s in the negative direction. At time t = 4 seconds, the particle has reached a certain speed; it
    2

    stops accelerating, and continues traveling with that same speed until t = 7 seconds. What is its position
    relative to the origin at t = 7 seconds?
    a. -6 meters
    b. -30 meters
    c. -8 meters
    d. -40 meters
    e. -59 meters

    5. An object moving along the x-axis has its position given by the equation x= 2.0t 2
    3.0t+ 4, with x in
    meters and t in seconds. What is the acceleration of the object at time t = 4.0s?
    a. 24 m/s 2

    b. 46 m/s 2

    c. 13 m/s 2 
    d. 16 m/s 2

    e. 4.0 m/s 2

    AP Physics Practice Test:
    Motion in One-Dimension
    6 . A rocket, initially at rest, is fired vertically upward with an acceleration of 12.0 m/s . At an altitude
    2

    of 1.00 km, the rocket engine cuts off. Air friction is negligible in this problem.
    a. How fast is the rocket traveling when the engine cuts off?

    b. What maximum height relative to the ground does the rocket reach before it begins falling back
    toward the earth?

    c. After free-falling, what is the rocket’s velocity just before it hits the earth?

    d. For what total amount of time was the rocket in the air (from initial launch to return to earth)?
