Revision Test

The document contains a test of physics concepts for an O-level exam. It includes multiple choice questions about gravitational field strength, changes in mass and weight at high altitudes, density, units of weight, and vector quantities. It also has questions about forces, friction, and acceleration. There are short answer questions defining stopping distance and its components, whether turning is a form of acceleration, and calculating acceleration given mass, applied force and frictional force. The test covers key concepts in mechanics including forces, motion, mass, weight, and density.
