Or

(2) Physics, Mathematics, English & Computer Science

ECAT Past Papers

One of the best ways to get an idea of what to expect in an exam and how to go about preparing it, is to have a look at the past papers. Same is the case with ECAT past papers. We’ve compiled some questions from the Physics portion of the ECAT past papers (since you’ll be facing physics questions regardless if you’re coming from an ICS background or from pre-engineering) from recent years that’ll help you get an idea of the exam:

ECAT Past Papers: Physics Sample

1. If v1 and v2 are the velocities of infrared and ultraviolet rays, what is the ratio of v1/v2?

1. 1:2
2. 2:1
3. 1:1
4. 7:3

Explanation:

This is so because the velocity of all electromagnetic waves are the same. The velocity is 3x10^8 m/s. Hence, 3x10^8/3x10^8 = 1/1 or 1:1.

2. What will be the inclination of the orbit for geostationary satellites?

1. 0 degrees
2. 45 degrees
3. 90 degrees
4. 30 degrees

Explanation:

For geostationary satellites, orbits have properties such as their eccentricity and inclination being 0 degrees, and their orbit period being 24 hours long.

3. A few minutes after turning on the air conditioners in a big hall, the temperature is measured on a hot day during summer. Taking the temperature close to the floor as T1, and temperature close to the ceiling as T2, which of the following is true?

1. T1>T2 because of Charles’ Law
2. T1<T2 because of Charles’ Law
3. T1>T2 because of Boyle’s Law
4. T1<T2 because of Boyle’s Law

Explanation:

Charles’ Law states that the volume (and hence, temperature) will be high where the density is low. Hot air being less dense will move towards the ceiling, which would make the temperature of the ceiling (T2) be greater than the temperature close to the floor (T1).

4.  A pendulum was at rest above point P inside a bus which was also at rest. What happens to the pendulum when the bus moves with a constant velocity?

1. It’ll vibrate at first and then stop
2. It’ll remain above point P
3. It’ll start vibrating
4. Nothing will happen to the pendulum

Explanation:

The pendulum will move or vibrate if the bus decelerates or accelerates. However, when the bus moves with a constant velocity, the pendulum will remain stationary.

5. When a constant force of 5N acts on an object of unknown mass for 5 seconds, the velocity of the object changes by 5 m/s. Calculate the mass of the object.

1. 10 kg
2. 5 kg
3. 25 kg
4. 1 kg

Explanation:

We know that,

Acceleration ‘a’ = Δv/t

Force ‘f’ = ma, or a = f/m

Hence,

f/m = Δv/t

m = f/t x Δv

m = 5/5 x 5

m = 5

Now that you have an idea of what kind of questions appeared in the ECAT past papers, you know what to expect. To practice such questions similar to these from ECAT past papers and to improve your concepts, enroll at our course and start your preparation right away!
