Question 25 b
http://papers.xtremepapers.com/CIE/Cambridge International A and AS Level/Physics (9702)/9702_s06_qp_1.pdf

Okay, we know V = 340 and f = 500
so take out λ = V / f = 0.68 m
We know that one wavelength means 360 ⁰ i.e, 2π
so now use the cross multiplication method
0.68 --- > 2π
0.17 -----> ?
? = 90 i.e, π/2

Nov 13 paper 11 question number 8 please

Let's do the math behind this - suppose the distance traveled with both speeds is denoted by "s".
Suppose the time taken at 600 kmph = t(1).

Then, since Speed = Distance/Time, we can write

600 = s/t(1)
So that
t(1) = s/600

Similarly, let's do the same for the other speed. The distance traveled is still "s", the speed = 400 kmph, and the time taken to traverse this distance = t(2). So:

400 = s/t(2)
So that
t(2) = s/400

The average speed is the total distance traveled dividing by the time taken (the average velocity is different - it is equal to total displacement divided by time taken).
= (Total Distance traveled)/(Time taken to cover that distance).

Since the plane travels a distance "s" in one direction and returns the same distance "s", the total distance traveled = s+s = 2s.

The time taken = t(1) + t(2) = s/400 + s/600 = 3s/1200 + 2s/1200 = 5s/1200 = s/240

Therefore, the average speed = 2s/(s/240) = 480 kmph = C.
-sagar.

I = kA²
k=I/A² (equation 1)
at other position of meter that is equation 2 :
2I=k(x²)
2I= (I/A²) * x²
( 2I * A² ) / I = x²
Taking √ both the sides, x = √ 2 * A

24)
I α a^2 and I α f^2.

Rather than doing all the math to do this, compare the amplitude and frequency of the waves and use the formula to figure out this stuff:

If Q's amplitude is twice as much, the intensity will be four times as much.
If Q's frequency is half that of P, the intensity will be one-fourth.

Net change = 0, so the intensity remains the same.

Hey, can you please explain question 22 to me?

Q5, Q12 and Q18. Please, do help me in these.

5)
We know S = d / t = 40 / 2.5 = 16 m/s
Uncertainty in speed = (uncertainty in distance + uncertainty in time) x speed
--------"--------------- = ( (0.1/40 ) + (0.05/2.5) ) x 16 = 0.36 ≈ 0.4 (1dp) = C

12)
Consider barrel :
Use F = ma
That is mg - T = ma (T = tension): 120g - T = 120a
Make T the subject of formula so, later we can equate it in other equation or you can solve it by simultaneous equation method also.
But I personally go for Equate so, T = 120g - 120a

Consider stake :
Again use F = ma
so T = 80g + 80a

Equate it to get acceleration :
120g-120a=80g+80a
a=0.5g

Now we use V² - U² = 2as
so V² = 2 x 0.5 (10) x 9
V = 6m/s

18)
Efficiency is given by (Useful Output Work)/(Total Input Energy) =
(Useful Output Work per Second)/(Total Input Energy per Second)
The useful output work per second = useful power output = 150 * 10^3 Joules Per Second.
Therefore, Efficiency = (150 * 10^3 Joules/Second)/(Total Input Energy per second)
Every hour, 20 liters of fuel are consumed. Therefore, every second, 20/(60 * 60) liters of fuel are consumed.
The energy in these liters is equal to [20/(60 * 60)] * 40 * 10^6 Joules.
Therefore, the efficiency is equal to
(150 * 10^3)/[20/(60 * 60)] * 40 * 10^6 = (150 * 10^3 * 60 * 60)/(20 * 40 * 10^6) = B.

Question 32?

Find lost volts(V) = E - Ir
so V = 12 - (0.8)(2) = 10.4V
Now P = I x V = 0.8 x 10.4 = 8.3W = A

Please and thank you!

3)
Maximum Height :
The maximum height is reached when the velocity is equal to zero
t(h) = vsinθ / g
where t(h) stands for the time it takes to reach maximum height. From the displacement equation we can find the maximum height
h = (vsinθ)² / 2g

Basically, here they asked us to find volume of the crystal (cube), and then we are asked to find its length i.e is 3rd root of volume :¬
Find V from V = m / ρ and 3rd root (V) you'll get the answer

But isn't this the length of one atom? We are asked to find the distance between two atoms. I don't understand what they're asking.

So the shortest distance is basically the length of one atom? Why?

Did you use the mass that was given? If so, why? There is more than 1 atom in the cube...
