Sample A-Level Revision Practice Questions

Try these questions from our free A-Level Revision practice tests. The correct answer and an explanation follow each question.

1. What is the moment of a 60 N force applied at 0.8 m from a pivot, at an angle of 30° to the lever arm?

   • A. 24 N m
   • B. 48 N m
   • C. 41.6 N m
   • D. 60 N m

   Answer: A. 24 N m

   Moment = Force × perpendicular distance = F × d × sin(θ) = 60 × 0.8 × sin(30°) = 60 × 0.8 × 0.5 = 24 N m.

2. What is the role of the enzyme rubisco in the Calvin cycle?

   • A. It catalyses the fixation of CO₂ by combining it with ribulose bisphosphate (RuBP)
   • B. It reduces GP to G3P using ATP and NADPH
   • C. It regenerates RuBP from G3P molecules
   • D. It splits water molecules during the light-dependent stage

   Answer: A. It catalyses the fixation of CO₂ by combining it with ribulose bisphosphate (RuBP)

   Rubisco (ribulose bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase) catalyses the carboxylation of RuBP, combining it with CO₂ to form two molecules of glycerate-3-phosphate (GP). It is the most abundant enzyme on Earth.

3. Which of the following is an example of a push factor in migration?

   • A. Higher wages in a destination country
   • B. Better healthcare facilities available abroad
   • C. Political persecution in the country of origin
   • D. Employment opportunities in an urban centre

   Answer: C. Political persecution in the country of origin

   Push factors are negative conditions at the origin that encourage people to leave, such as political persecution, conflict, or poverty.

4. A circle has equation x² + y² - 6x + 4y - 12 = 0. What is its radius?

   • A. 5
   • B. √12
   • C. 25
   • D. 7

   Answer: A. 5

   Completing the square: (x-3)² + (y+2)² = 9 + 4 + 12 = 25. So the radius is √25 = 5.
