    This document is a physics assessment test for 9th year students at Taraji Africa International School. It contains 12 multiple choice and short answer questions testing concepts in physics including: 1) Calculating the mass and density of paper sheets given measurements of length, width, height of a pile and total number of sheets. 2) Suggesting how a student could determine the density of the same paper using only 5 sheets and additional apparatus. 3) Questions about the units used to measure heat, the meaning of the heat and temperature of an object.

    RANDOM ASSESSMENT TEST 1 (RAT)


    PHYSICS YEAR 9
    TIME: 40Mins
    Name: ……………………………………………………………………………………..
    1. A student has 500 identical, rectangular sheets of paper. The mass of 1.0 M2 of the
    paper is 0.080 kg.
    (a) Using a metre rule, she measures the length of one sheet of paper and its width.
    The length is 0.300 m and the width is 0.210 m.

    (i) Calculate the mass of one sheet of paper.

    Mass = ...........................................................[1]

    (ii) The student makes a single pile of the 500 sheets of paper. With a metre rule, she
    measures the height of the pile. The height of the pile is 0.048 m.

    Calculate the density of the paper. density = ...........................................................[3]

    (b) A second student has only 5 sheets of the same type of paper. Suggest how this
    student determines the density of the paper to a similar accuracy. Additional apparatus
    may be
    used. .................................................................................................................................
