Q: How do I try a free CXC Physics question?

Just tap any of the four options on this page — no signup, no card, nothing to install. You'll see the correct answer and a full mark-scheme-style explanation within a second. Each visit shows a fresh randomly-picked question from the live CXC CSEC Physics bank, so you can keep refreshing to try different ones before deciding whether to create a free account for daily access.

Q: Is Kramizo really free for CXC Physics students?

Yes — completely free. Every student gets 45 questions a day on the free plan, across any board and any subject, with no card required and no trial countdown. Kramizo's optional Pro plan removes the daily cap and adds analytics, but the free plan is genuinely free forever. We make money from the small percentage of students who choose to upgrade — not from selling data or ads.

Q: Are the Physics questions aligned to the CXC CSEC syllabus?

Every question is written against the published CXC CSEC Physics syllabus and reviewed for accuracy before being added to the bank. We match the command words (state, describe, explain, evaluate), mark allocations, and difficulty tier you'll see on real CXC past papers. Explanations are written in the style of official examiner mark schemes so students learn exactly what marks are being awarded for.

Question

During a cricket match in Guyana, a bowler throws a ball with a force of 30 N. According to Newton's Third Law, which statement is correct?

Accepted Answer

The ball exerts a 30 N force on the bowler's hand in the opposite direction — Award 1 mark for recognising Newton's Third Law: action and reaction forces are equal in magnitude but opposite in direction. A is incorrect — forces act in opposite directions. C is incorrect — action-reaction pairs are always equal. D is incorrect — there is always a reaction force.

Answer

The ball exerts no force on the bowler's hand

Answer

The ball exerts a 30 N force on the bowler's hand in the same direction

Answer

The ball exerts a 30 N force on the bowler's hand in the opposite direction

Answer

The ball exerts a force less than 30 N on the bowler's hand
