7What is the kinetic energy of a 2.0 kg projectile moving at a speed of 10 m/s?
8A 5.0 kg mass is lifted vertically through a height of 4.0 m near Earth's surface (g = 9.80 m/s²). What is its gain in gravitational potential energy?
9An electric hoist lifts a 600 N weight through a vertical distance of 5.0 m in 10 s. What power is exerted by the hoist?
10An ideal spring obeying Hooke's Law extends by 0.050 m when a force of 20 N is applied. What is the spring constant k?
About the SINF6 Physics Exam
The Solomon Islands National Form Six Examination (SINF6) Physics paper is the national Year 12 physics assessment, administered by MEHRD's National Education Assessment Division and timetabled as part of the Solomon Islands School Certificate Level Two (SISCL2). Candidates sit a single three-hour question-and-answer booklet requiring worked calculations, graphical analysis and evaluation of experimental data across mechanics, electricity and magnetism, waves and optics, thermal physics, and modern and atomic physics. In 2026 the Physics paper is scheduled for Monday 2 November. Physics is one of the strongest performing Year 12 subjects nationally, with 77.1% of candidates reaching the minimum subject score in 2025. The 100 questions on this page are an English-language multiple-choice study adaptation of that syllabus, intended for revision rather than as a simulation of the official written paper.
Assessment
Single 3-hour question-and-answer booklet with 10 minutes of reading time. All sections are compulsory. Candidates show working for numerical problems, plot and interpret graphs, and evaluate experimental data directly in the booklet.
Time Limit
3 hours plus 10 minutes reading time (session 9.00 am – 12.10 pm)
Passing Score
MEHRD does not publish a fixed percentage pass mark. Subject scores feed a Year 12 aggregate; for the 2023 sitting MEHRD reported a minimum aggregate of 265 within an aggregate range of 265–500, and 58.8% of that cohort reached or exceeded it.
Exam Fee
No fee. MEHRD's administrative instruction prohibits schools from charging national examination fees for Year 9, Year 11 and Year 12 candidates. (Ministry of Education and Human Resources Development (MEHRD), National Education Assessment Division (NEAD))
SINF6 Physics Exam Content Outline
Mechanics
Kinematics, projectiles, Newton's laws, momentum and collisions, work and energy, circular motion, gravitation, simple harmonic motion, moments, rotation and fluids.
Electricity and Magnetism
Electrostatics, fields and potential, capacitance, DC circuits and internal resistance, magnetic forces and fields, electromagnetic induction, transformers and AC circuits.
Waves and Optics
Wave properties, refraction and total internal reflection, lenses and mirrors, the Doppler effect, standing waves, interference, diffraction, polarisation and sound intensity.
Thermal Physics
Heat capacity and latent heat, the ideal gas law, kinetic theory, thermal expansion, the first law of thermodynamics, heat engines and conduction.
Modern and Atomic Physics
Photons and the photoelectric effect, matter waves, the Bohr model, radioactivity and half-life, mass-energy equivalence and nuclear binding energy.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the SINF6 Physics examination?
It is the national Form 6 (Year 12) physics paper administered by MEHRD's National Education Assessment Division, forming part of the Solomon Islands National Form Six School Certificate, now timetabled as the Solomon Islands School Certificate Level Two (SISCL2).
When is the 2026 SINF6 Physics examination?
MEHRD has scheduled Physics for Monday 2 November 2026, with 10 minutes of reading time and a 3-hour paper running from 9.00 am to 12.10 pm. History is timetabled on the same day.
How many questions are on the official paper?
MEHRD does not publish a fixed item count. The paper is a single question-and-answer booklet with compulsory sections requiring worked solutions, graphs and experimental interpretation rather than a set number of multiple-choice items.
Is this practice bank the same format as the real exam?
No. The official paper requires written working, graph plotting and data analysis. These 100 items are an English-language multiple-choice study adaptation covering the same syllabus content, designed for revision and self-checking rather than format simulation.
How well do candidates usually perform in Physics?
Well by national standards. MEHRD reported that 77.1% of Year 12 candidates reached or exceeded the minimum Physics subject score in both 2024 and 2025, placing it third behind Computer Studies and Design Technology.
Is there a fee to sit SINF6 Physics?
No. MEHRD's administrative instruction to schools prohibits charging national examination fees for Year 9, Year 11 and Year 12 candidates.
Can I use a calculator?
Candidates are expected to bring a silent, non-programmable scientific calculator for the numerical work in the paper. Mobile phones are not permitted in the examination room.
In what language is the examination set?
English. English is the language of instruction and assessment in Solomon Islands secondary schools, so this bank is in the same language as the official paper.
