Sample WACE Year 11 Physics questions

These sample questions are visible on the page before login. They show WACE Year 11 Physics motion, energy, electric fields, waves, magnetic flux, and light-and-matter data with diagrams and graphs before opening the demo.

WACE Year 11 Physics Motion hard velocity-time graph

1. A trolley increases from 0 m/s to 12 m/s in 4.0 s on a velocity-time graph. What is the acceleration?

WACE 11 trolley acceleration 0-4 s 12 m/s 4 s t v
Choices
  • 3.0 m/s2
  • 12 m/s2
  • 48 m/s2
  • 0.33 m/s2
Explanation:

Acceleration is gradient: (12 - 0) / 4.0 = 3.0 m/s2.

WACE Year 11 Physics Spring models hard force-extension graph

2. A force-extension graph passes through 0.08 m and 12 N. What spring constant is shown by the gradient?

WACE 11 spring gradient 0.08 m 12 N linear x F
Choices
  • 150 N/m
  • 0.0067 N/m
  • 12 N/m
  • 96 N/m
Explanation:

For a linear spring, k = F / x = 12 / 0.08 = 150 N/m.

WACE Year 11 Physics Refraction hard refraction diagram

3. Light travels from air into a denser transparent block. Which ray path is most consistent with the change in speed?

WACE 11 block refraction air block normal
Choices
  • Toward the normal
  • Away from the normal
  • Parallel to the boundary
  • Back along the same path only
Explanation:

Light bends toward the normal when it enters a medium where its speed is lower.

WACE Year 11 Physics Circuit power hard circuit diagram

4. A circuit diagram shows a 6 V supply and current of 2.0 A through a resistor. What power is dissipated?

WACE 11 resistor power 6 V 2.0 A P
Choices
  • 12 W
  • 3 W
  • 8 W
  • 0.33 W
Explanation:

Power is P = VI = 6 x 2.0 = 12 W.

WACE Year 11 Physics Wave interference hard interference diagram

5. For a ripple-tank interference pattern, wavelength increases while source spacing and screen distance stay fixed. What happens to fringe spacing?

WACE 11 ripple interference sources screen fringe
Choices
  • It increases
  • It decreases
  • It becomes zero
  • It is unchanged
Explanation:

Interference spacing is proportional to wavelength when the geometry is unchanged.

WACE Year 11 Physics Circular motion hard circular-motion diagram

6. A model car moves at 4.0 m/s around a radius of 2.0 m. What centripetal acceleration is represented?

WACE 11 circular acceleration 2.0 m 4.0 m/s a
Choices
  • 8.0 m/s2
  • 2.0 m/s2
  • 16 m/s2
  • 0.5 m/s2
Explanation:

Centripetal acceleration is v2 / r = 4.02 / 2.0 = 8.0 m/s2.

For parents comparing WACE Year 11 Physics support

WACE Year 11 Physics practice should help students connect equations to visible evidence: motion, energy, electric fields, waves, magnetic flux, and light-and-matter data. These examples preview that visual reasoning before the no-login Physics demo.
