This is the Physical Sciences Grade 12 Paper 1 (Physics) national May/June examination, worth 150 marks and to be completed in 3 hours. Question 1 is multiple choice, covering the inverse proportionality of gravitational force to the square of a planet’s radius, analysing a block moving at constant acceleration on a rough surface, and comparing the maximum heights reached by two objects thrown upward at different velocities.
The following document, Physical Sciences Grade 12 Paper 1 Term 2 Exam.pdf, is the full document.

Key terms covered include gravitational force, kinetic frictional force, momentum, and maximum height.
The paper consists of 17 pages including three data sheets, and has 10 questions. Question 1 is multiple choice on mechanics and gravitation.
By the end of this paper, learners should be able to apply the law of gravitation, analyse forces and momentum on objects moving with constant acceleration, and compare projectile motion at different initial velocities.
