    Salam mates. I have this problem on the Electromagnetic Spectrum part of the Physics syllabus. Could someone please explain to me, what types of wavelengths in the spectrum, are penetrating, and what types are not. For example, if short or long wavelengths are absorbed or reflected. A source...

    Need help with question 3, the coordinates of P. Mark scheme says it can be found using a vector method, so if anyone knows that, I'd love to see it.

    Here you go Salman. I hope I'm right. The answer's right, so probably the method is too. H2 + Cl2 ==> 2HCL. 1 mol of H2 gives 2 moles of HCL. so 2.5/2 moles of H2 gives 2 moles of HCl. Now, from the equation, we see that when 2 moles of HCL are formed, energy is -184Kj. so by ratio, when 2.5...

    Exactly..

    Well, I think I might have an answer to your questions. The first part is basically easy because carbonates react with acids to form a salt, water and carbon dioxide. The pH of soils, increase as a result. I assume you already know the basic equations for this one. As for the second part, I have...

    Alright, this time, thank you for the nice reply ^_^. But, as you can see, I'm just guessing. I may be wrong, but at least I'm trying. This time, I'm going to sit it out. See what the others have to say. :)

    Chillax mate. It's only an opinion. Alright, how's about this one... you said, that the glass prism was in the open, not sunlight or cold weather. Well, that being said, it is safe to assume that temperature variations will be present, because 22 days is a lot of time, and the weather will not...

    I know that the grass catches fire because the prism has exploded, releasing heat, so 5 marks there :D. As for the prism, I'd say, it might have something to do with the over-heating due to too much total internal reflection of light. Or, because the prism has refracted too much light towards...

    Thanks a ton man. Actually, what I was trying to do, was joining the lines of the larger triangle inverted, and its centre of enlargement. 'Cause, I thought it was first enlarged, and then reflected. But it's the opposite case. Anyway, thanks man ^_^

    Hey. I got most of the question, but just couldn't figure out the center of enlargement. I got the scale factor too. Can you please, like, give a rough description of how you got the sketch. Please :)

    I think the answer is, it has a rotational symmetry of order 2. You see, as the quadrilateral is a parallelogram, it has a rotational symmetry of order 2, because, in a 360 degrees turn, it will look exactly the same as the original shape, only twice, i.e once in the original shape after the 360...

    Thanks a lot mate. I was thinking the answer was something along those lines, but that formula thingy, helped. :)

    Oh, and I have a small question. How is it, that the speed of sound is affected by temperature and humidity changes? I have a slight idea, but I'm not really sure about it. Can you help a brother out? :)

    I really don't think this question has to be answered quantitatively. You see, we found out the body is accelerating. And that acceleration, is 3.52. Now, that is a positive acceleration, which is increasing the velocity of the body as it is greater than 1. Now, as we might recall, friction is a...
