Phy Main

This document contains 10 multiple choice questions testing knowledge of physics concepts like displacement, acceleration, units of measurement, kinetic energy, mass vs weight, inertia, laws of motion, free fall, energy changes, gravitational force, and friction. It also includes a case study with 4 additional multiple choice questions about the acceleration of two blocks in contact on a horizontal surface when a horizontal force is applied to one block. The questions cover a wide range of foundational physics topics.
