Key Facts: EGE Physics Exam

The 2026 EGE Physics exam contains 26 tasks, down from 30 in previous years (FIPI specification).

The maximum primary score in 2026 is 45 primary points, mapped onto a 100-point test scale (Rosobrnadzor).

The minimum threshold for the school certificate is 36 test points, equal to 8 primary points (Rosobrnadzor).

The exam lasts 235 minutes (3 hours 55 minutes) according to the 2026 FIPI specification.

Part 1 has 20 short-answer tasks and Part 2 has 6 extended-answer problems requiring full worked solutions.

About 99,500 students sat EGE Physics in 2025, with an average score of roughly 61.3 test points (FIPI).

EGE Physics is an elective exam required for admission to most Russian engineering and technical university programs.

Permitted aids are a non-programmable calculator with trigonometric functions and a ruler (FIPI rules).

The 2026 EGE Physics is a 235-minute, 26-task elective exam (20 short-answer + 6 extended-answer) with a maximum primary score of 45 mapped onto a 100-point scale; 36 test points is the minimum passing threshold.

Sample EGE Physics Practice Questions

Try these sample questions to review concepts for the EGE Physics exam. Each question includes a detailed explanation. Start the interactive quiz above for the full 100+ question experience with AI tutoring.

1A car travels in a straight line at a constant velocity of 20 m/s for 15 s. What distance does it cover?

A.35 m

B.1.33 m

C.200 m

D.300 m

Explanation: For uniform (constant-velocity) motion, distance equals speed multiplied by time: s = v·t = 20 m/s × 15 s = 300 m.

2A body starts from rest and accelerates uniformly at 4 m/s². What is its velocity after 5 s?

A.0.8 m/s

B.9 m/s

C.20 m/s

D.50 m/s

Explanation: With uniform acceleration from rest, v = v₀ + a·t = 0 + 4 m/s² × 5 s = 20 m/s.

3An object is dropped from rest near Earth's surface (g = 10 m/s²). How far does it fall in the first 3 s, neglecting air resistance?

A.15 m

B.30 m

C.45 m

D.90 m

Explanation: For free fall from rest, h = ½g·t² = ½ × 10 m/s² × (3 s)² = ½ × 10 × 9 = 45 m.

4A ball is thrown vertically upward with an initial speed of 20 m/s (g = 10 m/s²). What maximum height does it reach?

A.10 m

B.20 m

C.40 m

D.2 m

Explanation: At maximum height the velocity is zero. Using v² = v₀² − 2gh, with v = 0: h = v₀²/(2g) = 400/(20) = 20 m.

5Which quantity is a vector?

A.Mass

B.Temperature

C.Velocity

D.Time

Explanation: Velocity has both magnitude and direction, so it is a vector. Mass, temperature, and time are scalars, fully specified by a single number.

6A net force of 12 N acts on a 3 kg body. What is the magnitude of its acceleration?

A.36 m/s²

B.4 m/s²

C.0.25 m/s²

D.9 m/s²

Explanation: Newton's second law gives a = F/m = 12 N / 3 kg = 4 m/s².

7Newton's third law states that:

A.A body remains at rest unless acted on by a force

B.Force equals mass times acceleration

C.For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction

D.Gravitational force decreases with the square of distance

Explanation: Newton's third law says that when body A exerts a force on body B, body B exerts an equal-magnitude, opposite-direction force on A. These forces act on different bodies and never cancel.

8A 2 kg block is pulled horizontally across a surface with coefficient of kinetic friction 0.3 (g = 10 m/s²). What is the friction force?

A.0.6 N

B.6 N

C.20 N

D.60 N

Explanation: Kinetic friction is F = μN. On a horizontal surface N = mg = 2 × 10 = 20 N, so F = 0.3 × 20 = 6 N.

9A spring obeys Hooke's law with stiffness 200 N/m. What force stretches it by 0.05 m?

A.4 N

B.10 N

C.40 N

D.4000 N

Explanation: Hooke's law gives F = k·x = 200 N/m × 0.05 m = 10 N.

10According to Newton's law of universal gravitation, if the distance between two masses is doubled, the gravitational force between them becomes:

A.Twice as large

B.Half as large

C.One quarter as large

D.Four times as large

Explanation: Gravitational force F = G·m₁m₂/r² is inversely proportional to the square of the distance. Doubling r divides F by 2² = 4, giving one quarter the force.

About the EGE Physics Exam

The EGE in Physics (ЕГЭ по физике) is an elective Unified State Exam taken by Russian school-leavers who apply to engineering, physics, and technical university programs. In 2026 the exam contains 26 tasks split into two parts: Part 1 has 20 short-answer tasks scored automatically, and Part 2 has 6 extended-answer problems marked by expert examiners. The maximum primary score is 45, which is converted to a 100-point test scale. Tasks span four content blocks: Mechanics, Molecular Physics and Thermodynamics, Electrodynamics, and Quantum Physics with elements of astrophysics. Candidates have 235 minutes and may use a non-programmable calculator and a ruler.

EGE Physics: Suggested Study Strategy

1Master the official FIPI codifier topic-by-topic; it lists exactly which content each task number tests.

2Memorize and practice the core formulas: kinematics equations, F = ma, PV = nRT, Ohm's law (I = U/R), F = BIL, and E = hv.

3Drill Part 2 worked solutions, since the 6 extended-answer problems carry 17 of the 45 primary points and require full justification.

4Practice unit conversions and SI prefixes carefully, as power-of-ten errors are a common cause of lost points.

5Time yourself against the 235-minute limit so pacing across all 26 tasks becomes automatic.

6Review the 2026 changes: the integrated graph-dependency task was removed and one MKT task moved into the Mechanics block.
