About this quiz

What you’ll practice

From joules to watts, this quiz targets the essentials: calculating work done, relating power to time, and interpreting efficiency in real systems.

Each question uses 4 options and there’s no timer, so you can focus on method and accuracy rather than speed.

Difficulty and question count

Difficulty is mixed by design: straightforward definitions and unit checks are blended with multi-step word problems to keep the challenge balanced.

Before starting, pick how many questions you want to answer and choose a difficulty setting that matches your comfort level (or keep it mixed for a realistic spread).

Common pitfalls to avoid

  • Mixing up energy (J) and power (W), or forgetting that 1 W = 1 J/s
  • Using mass instead of weight (remember force in newtons) when computing work
  • Missing unit conversions (kW↔W, minutes↔seconds, kWh↔J)
  • Ignoring direction/angle in work problems when force isn’t along the motion
  • Treating efficiency as a whole number instead of a fraction/percent

Tips to score higher

Write down the formula first, then check units to confirm you’re solving for the right quantity. When a question feels tricky, estimate the order of magnitude before choosing an option to catch obvious conversion errors.

Sample questions

What is the unit of power in the International System of Units (SI)?

  • A.Watt
  • B.Joule
  • C.Newton
  • D.Pascal

Which formula represents the relationship between work, force, and distance?

  • A.Work = Force x Distance
  • B.Work = Force + Distance
  • C.Work = Force / Distance
  • D.Work = Force - Distance

What is the formula to calculate efficiency?

  • A.Efficiency = (Useful Output Energy / Input Energy) x 100%
  • B.Efficiency = (Input Energy / Useful Output Energy) x 100%
  • C.Efficiency = Output Power / Input Power
  • D.Efficiency = Useful Output Work / Input Work
