Question 1 · 1 mark · Difficulty 1/3

A coconut falls from a tree in a Jamaican plantation. Which of Newton's laws BEST explains why the coconut accelerates towards the ground?

  1. Newton's First Law
  2. Newton's Second Law
  3. Newton's Third Law
  4. Newton's Law of Gravitation
Show answer & explanation
✓ Answer: BNewton's Second Law
Award 1 mark for identifying that Newton's Second Law (F = ma) explains that the unbalanced gravitational force causes the coconut to accelerate. A is incorrect — the First Law explains constant velocity or rest, not acceleration. C is incorrect — the Third Law describes action-reaction pairs, not the cause of acceleration. D is incorrect — while gravitation provides the force, the Second Law explains the resulting acceleration.
Question 2 · 1 mark · Difficulty 1/3

A student in Trinidad observes a mango resting on a table. According to Newton's First Law, the mango remains at rest because

  1. no forces are acting on it
  2. the forces acting on it are balanced
  3. gravity is not acting on it
  4. the table is pushing it upwards with greater force than gravity
Show answer & explanation
✓ Answer: Bthe forces acting on it are balanced
Award 1 mark for recognising that Newton's First Law states an object remains at rest when the net force is zero (balanced forces). A is incorrect — gravity and normal reaction are both acting on the mango. C is incorrect — gravity always acts on objects with mass near Earth. D is incorrect — if the upward force were greater, the mango would accelerate upwards.

CXC CSEC Physics: Newton's Laws of Motion FAQ

How many CXC CSEC Physics questions on Newton's Laws of Motion are there on Kramizo?
Kramizo currently has 20 exam-board-aligned practice questions on Newton's Laws of Motion 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 Newton's Laws of Motion 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 Newton's Laws of Motion 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 Newton's Laws of Motion typically tested on CXC CSEC Physics papers?
Newton's Laws of Motion 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.
