Question 1 · 1 mark · Difficulty 1/3

A student in Kingston, Jamaica, uses a spring balance to measure the weight of a mango. The spring balance reads 2.0 N. What physical quantity is the spring balance directly measuring?

  1. The mass of the mango
  2. The force of gravity acting on the mango
  3. The density of the mango
  4. The volume of the mango
Show answer & explanation
✓ Answer: BThe force of gravity acting on the mango
Award 1 mark for identifying that weight is the force of gravity acting on an object. A is incorrect because mass is measured in kilograms using a balance, not a spring balance which measures force in newtons. C is incorrect because density requires both mass and volume measurements. D is incorrect because volume is measured using displacement or geometric calculations, not a spring balance.
Question 2 · 1 mark · Difficulty 1/3

A fisherman in Barbados catches a fish with a mass of 2.5 kg. What is the weight of the fish on Earth? (Take g = 10 N/kg)

  1. 2.5 N
  2. 25 N
  3. 0.25 N
  4. 250 N
Show answer & explanation
✓ Answer: B25 N
Award 1 mark for correct calculation using W = mg. Weight = 2.5 kg × 10 N/kg = 25 N. A is incorrect because the student has confused mass with weight without applying the formula. C results from dividing instead of multiplying. D results from multiplying by 100 instead of 10.

CXC CSEC Physics: Mass, Weight and Gravitational Field Strength FAQ

How many CXC CSEC Physics questions on Mass, Weight and Gravitational Field Strength are there on Kramizo?
Kramizo currently has 20 exam-board-aligned practice questions on Mass, Weight and Gravitational Field Strength for CXC CSEC Physics, with new questions added every week. Each question gives you instant feedback and a full examiner-style mark scheme that tells you exactly what would earn marks on a real CXC paper. The questions span the full difficulty range — from straightforward recall (level 1) right up to multi-step reasoning and evaluation (level 3) — so the bank works for first-pass revision and final exam-week stress testing alike.
Is Kramizo free for CXC CSEC students preparing for Physics?
Yes — completely free. Every student gets 45 questions a day on the free plan, with no card required and no trial countdown. That free quota works across every subject and every topic in our bank, so you can mix Mass, Weight and Gravitational Field Strength practice with other Physics topics or even switch to a totally different CXC subject without paying anything. Kramizo's optional Pro plan removes the daily cap and adds detailed progress analytics, but the free tier is the real product — used by thousands of GCSE, IGCSE and CSEC students.
Are the Mass, Weight and Gravitational Field Strength questions aligned to the official CXC CSEC Physics syllabus?
Every question is written against the published CXC CSEC Physics specification, including the exact command words (state, describe, explain, calculate, evaluate, etc.), mark allocations, and difficulty tier you'd see on a real CXC paper. Explanations are written in the style of official examiner mark schemes — they tell you what is being awarded marks and why distractors are wrong, not just whether you got it right. The bank is continually refined to match the latest syllabus updates from CXC.
How is Mass, Weight and Gravitational Field Strength typically tested on CXC CSEC Physics papers?
Mass, Weight and Gravitational Field Strength appears across multiple question types on real CXC CSEC Physics papers — most commonly as multiple-choice questions in the objective section, structured short-answer questions in the main paper, and occasionally as part of an extended response. Kramizo's practice bank reflects that mix: 4-option MCQs, true/false statements, fill-in-the-blank key terms, multi-select questions, and ordering questions. Working through the bank gives you exposure to every question style examiners actually use.
