Augment’s own questions for Physics, written in the style of IB exams, each with its markscheme. They are not past papers. One from each topic is below to try.
Every question has a markscheme.
The paper each question is written for, so you can practice one paper at a time.
Each topic in syllabus order, with its subtopics. Lines with notes link to them. Under each topic is one question to try, its markscheme folded until you open it.
A ball is thrown vertically upwards. Air resistance is negligible. Which is correct about the ball at its highest point?
The answer is B.
Gravity still acts at the highest point, so the acceleration is downwards throughout the flight. Only the velocity is momentarily zero.
The cell in the circuit has negligible internal resistance.

What is the potential difference across ?
The answer is C.
The current is , so .
A student moves one end of a long horizontal rope up and down, so that a transverse wave travels along the rope. A small ribbon is tied to the rope halfway along its length.
Which describes the motion of the ribbon while the wave passes?
The answer is B.
In a transverse wave each part of the medium oscillates perpendicular to the direction in which the wave travels, about its own equilibrium position. The wave transfers energy along the rope, but there is no net displacement of the rope itself. A and D confuse the motion of the wave with the motion of the medium; C describes a longitudinal wave.
A square coil of 200 turns and side 5.0 cm lies perpendicular to a uniform magnetic field. The field strength falls steadily from 0.40 T to zero in 0.25 s.

Monochromatic light is shone on a metal surface and photoelectrons are emitted. The intensity of the light is doubled while its frequency is kept constant. What happens to the maximum kinetic energy of the photoelectrons and to the photoelectric current?
The answer is B.
The maximum kinetic energy depends only on frequency: . Doubling the intensity doubles the number of photons per second, so twice as many electrons are emitted and the current doubles.
