1. Test Overview | 试卷概览
This mock test is designed to replicate the style of an Edexcel Year 9 end‑of‑unit assessment. It lasts 45 minutes and carries a total of 50 marks. The questions are drawn from the energy stores and transfers part of the specification: recognising energy stores (kinetic, gravitational potential, elastic, thermal, chemical and so on), calculating energy changes, applying the principle of conservation of energy, working with power and efficiency, and interpreting Sankey diagrams. You are expected to recall formulas and use them with correct units.
本模拟卷模拟了爱德思九年级单元测试的风格，考试时间45分钟，满分50分。题目选自考纲中能量储存与转移部分：识别不同能量储存（动能、重力势能、弹性势能、热能、化学能等），计算能量变化，运用能量守恒原理，处理功率和效率，以及解读桑基图。你需要记住公式并能正确使用单位。
2. Question 1: Energy Stores in a System | 第1题：系统中的能量储存
The first question showed a skateboarder rolling up a ramp and then back down. You had to name the main energy store that increases as the skateboarder goes up, and the store that increases as she goes down. As she rises, her height increases, so the gravitational potential energy store gains energy. Her speed decreases, meaning the kinetic store loses energy. On the way down, the opposite happens: kinetic energy increases and gravitational potential decreases. The full‑mark answer also noted that some energy is transferred to the thermal store of the surroundings due to friction.
第一题展示了一位滑板运动员沿斜坡上滑再下滑的情景。你需要说出上滑时哪种主要能量储存增加，以及下滑时哪种储存增加。当她上升时，高度增加，因此重力势能储存获得能量；她的速度减小，意味着动能储存损失能量。下滑时则相反：动能增加，重力势能减少。满分答案还指出，由于摩擦，部分能量转移到了周围环境的热能储存中。
3. Question 2: Kinetic Energy Calculation | 第2题：动能计算
A bowling ball of mass 6.0 kg rolls at 4.0 m/s. You were asked to calculate its kinetic energy. The equation for kinetic energy is:
一个质量为6.0 kg的保龄球以4.0 m/s的速度滚动。要求你计算它的动能。动能公式为：
Eₖ = ½ m v²
common mistake here is forgetting to square the speed first. Remember, the unit of energy is the joule (J). Always show your working: one mark is usually allocated for the correct substitution, another for the final answer with the unit.
代入数值得到 Eₖ = 0.5 × 6.0 × (4.0)² = 0.5 × 6.0 × 16 = 48 J。这里常见的错误是忘记先对速度取平方。记住能量的单位是焦耳 (J)。一定要写出计算步骤：通常会设置一步替换分和一步最终答案（含单位）分。
4. Question 3: Gravitational Potential Energy | 第3题：重力势能
A student of mass 50 kg climbs a vertical ladder of height 3.0 m. Calculate the increase in his gravitational potential energy. The equation is:
一名质量50 kg的学生爬上垂直高度为3.0 m的梯子。计算他重力势能的增加量。公式为：
Eₚ = m g h
9.8 N/kg, adapt accordingly, but Year 9 tests often use 10 for simplicity. Some students mistakenly use the mass in grams or forget to multiply by g. Always check that mass is in kilograms, height in metres, and g in N/kg.
使用 g = 10 N/kg（爱德思 GCSE 公式表给出的值），Eₚ = 50 × 10 × 3.0 = 1500 J。如果题目使用 g = 9.8 N/kg，相应调整即可，但九年级测试常取10以简化计算。有些学生错误地用克表示质量或忘记乘以 g。务必确认质量的单位是千克，高度是米，g 是 N/kg。
5. Question 4: Work Done and Power | 第4题：做功与功率
An electric motor pulls a crate with a constant force of 500 N over a distance of 8.0 m in 4.0 s. First calculate the work done, then the power output.
一台电动机用500 N的恒力拖动板条箱移动8.0 m，用时4.0 s。先计算做功，再计算功率。
W = F d
P = W / t
error is mixing up the two equations or using the wrong time value. Practice rearranging the power equation: W = P × t, t = W ÷ P.
做功 = 500 N × 8.0 m = 4000 J。功率 = 4000 J ÷ 4.0 s = 1000 W（或1 kW）。出色答案会提到1瓦特等于1焦耳每秒。最常见的错误是混淆两个公式或使用错误的时间值。多练习功率公式的变形：W = P × t，t = W ÷ P。
6. Question 5: Elastic Potential Energy | 第5题：弹性势能
A spring with a spring constant of 250 N/m is stretched by 0.12 m. Calculate the elastic potential energy stored.
一根劲度系数为250 N/m的弹簧被拉伸了0.12 m。计算储存的弹性势能。
Eₑ = ½ k e²
stion tests your ability to handle decimal squaring and unit consistency. The extension must be in metres; 'e' is measured from the unstretched position.
代入数值：Eₑ = 0.5 × 250 × (0.12)² = 0.5 × 250 × 0.0144 = 1.8 J。注意伸长量的平方：(0.12)² = 0.0144，而不是0.144。这道题考查你处理小数平方和单位一致性的能力。伸长量必须用米表示；‘e’是从未拉伸位置开始测量的。
7. Question 6: Efficiency of a Motor | 第6题：电动机的效率
A motor receives 500 J of electrical energy. It transfers 350 J to the kinetic store of a fan and 150 J to the thermal store of the surroundings. Calculate the percentage efficiency of the motor.
一台电动机接收500 J的电能。它将350 J转移到风扇的动能储存，150 J转移到周围环境的热能储存。计算这台电动机的百分比效率。
η = (useful output energy / total input energy) × 100%
Here the useful output is kinetic energy (350 J). Efficiency = (350 ÷ 500) × 100% = 70% rrectly include the wasted energy in the useful output or forget the multiplication by 100%. Efficiency should always lie between 0% and 100% d 1 as a decimal). A Sankey diagram would show the main arrow splitting into a wide useful‑energy arrow and a narrower wasted‑energy arrow.
这里有用输出是动能（350 J）。效率 = (350 ÷ 500) × 100% = 70%。剩余能量以热的形式浪费掉了。一些学生错误地将浪费的能量也算作有用输出，或忘记乘以100%。效率始终应介于0%到100%之间（或0到1之间的小数）。如果用桑基图表示，主箭头会分叉为一个较宽的有用能量箭头和一个较窄的浪费能量箭头。
8. Question 7: Specific Heat Capacity | 第7题：比热容
A 2.5 kg aluminium block is heated from 22 °C to 76 °C. The specific heat capacity of aluminium is 900 J/(kg °C). Calculate the energy transferred to the block.
一个2.5 kg的铝块从22 °C加热到76 °C。铝的比热容为900 J/(kg °C)。计算传递给铝块的能量。
ΔE = m c Δθ
Temperature change Δθ = 76 – he temperature difference. Also, make sure you use the correct c value from the data sheet – fferent materials have different specific heat capacities. For water, c is 4200 J/(kg °C).
温度变化 Δθ = 76 – 22 = 54 °C。因此 ΔE = 2.5 × 900 × 54 = 121,500 J（或121.5 kJ）。最常见的失误是使用最终温度而不是温度差。另外，务必使用数据表中正确的 c 值——不同物质有不同的比热容。例如水的 c 为4200 J/(kg °C)。
9. Question 8: Conduction, Convection and Radiation | 第8题：传导、对流和辐射
The test asked you to explain how the metal handle of a pan becomes too hot to hold, while the plastic handle stays cool. A three‑mark explanation required reference to conduction. Metals are good conductors because they have free electrons that rapidly transfer energy through the material. Plastics are poor conductors (good insulators) and lack free electrons, so energy is transferred much more slowly. The answer could also mention that the shiny metal surface reflects thermal radiation, reducing absorption, but the key point is the conduction difference.
测试要求你解释为什么平底锅的金属手柄会变得烫手，而塑料手柄却保持冷却。一个三分题的解释需要提及传导。金属是热的良导体，因为它们拥有自由电子，能将能量迅速传递到整个材料中。塑料是热的不良导体（良好的绝缘体），缺乏自由电子，因此能量传递慢得多。答案还可以提到光亮的金属表面会反射热辐射，减少吸收，但关键点是传导性能的差异。
10. Question 9: Energy Resources | 第9题：能源
You were given a table of energy resources and asked to classify them as renewable or non‑renewable, then describe one advantage of wind power and one disadvantage of fossil fuels.
试卷给出一个能源表格，要求你将它们分为可再生和不可再生，然后描述风力发电的一个优点和化石燃料的一个缺点。
- Renewable: wind, solar, tidal, hydroelectric, wave, geothermal, biomass.
- 可再生：风能、太阳能、潮汐能、水力发电、波浪能、地热能、生物质能。
- Non‑renewable: coal, oil, natural gas, nuclear (uranium).
- 不可再生：煤、石油、天然气、核能（铀）。
Wind power: no greenhouse gases are emitted during operation; it is a free energy source after construction. Fossil fuels: burning them releases CO₂, a greenhouse gas that contributes to climate change; they are finite and will eventually run out. Ensure you use scientific vocabulary like 'greenhouse effect' and 'carbon dioxide' for full marks.
风力发电：运行过程中不排放温室气体；建成后是免费的能源。化石燃料：燃烧会释放二氧化碳，这是一种温室气体，会加剧气候变化；它们是有限的，终将耗尽。为了拿到满分，务必使用‘温室效应’、‘二氧化碳’等科学词汇。
11. Question 10: Sankey Diagrams and Energy Analysis | 第10题：桑基图与能量分析
The final extended question offered data for a filament lamp: input 100 J electrical energy, useful light output 8 J, rest wasted as heat. You had to draw a Sankey diagram to scale and calculate the efficiency.
最后的拓展题提供了白炽灯的数据：输入电能100 J，有用光输出8 J，其余以热形式浪费。你需要按比例绘制桑基图并计算效率。
Efficiency = (8 / 100) × 100% = 8% 100 J arrow is 10 cm wide. The useful output arrow (8 J) is 0.8 cm wide, and the downward‑ e type of energy and the number of joules. A ruler is essential for proportional accuracy.
效率 = (8 / 100) × 100% = 8%。这个效率很低，说明大部分能量以热的形式耗散。绘制桑基图时，输入箭头按比例画出，例如1 cm = 10 J，那么100 J的箭头宽度为10 cm。有用输出箭头（8 J）宽0.8 cm，向下的浪费能量箭头宽9.2 cm，代表92 J。箭头必须标出能量类型和焦耳值。使用直尺保证比例准确对得分至关重要。
| Energy Store | Input (J) | Useful (J) | Wasted (J) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Electrical → Light + Heat | 100 | 8 | 92 |
12. Study Tips for the Unit Test | 单元测试学习小贴士
½ k e², W = Fd, P = W/t, ΔE = m c Δθ, efficiency = useful/total. Practise unit conversions – centimetres to metres, grams to kilograms – culations. Use flashcards for energy store names and their definitions. When answering six‑ le. Always check the number of marks available as a clue to the amount of detail required.
复习注重质量而非数量。牢记核心公式：Eₖ = ½ m v²、Eₚ = mgh、Eₑ = ½ k e²、W = Fd、P = W/t、ΔE = m c Δθ、效率 = 有用/总。多练习单位换算——厘米换米、克换千克——因为爱德思经常把这些融入计算中。用闪卡记忆能量储存的名称和定义。回答六分题时，先规划：说明能量传递，引用相关公式，尽可能用数据支持。始终留意题目分值，这暗示了需要多详细的答案。
