Wall area = A m²
Volume of air colliding with wall per sec .. V/s(m³/s) = u(m/s) x A(m²) = uA
Mass colliding per sec .. m/t (kg/s) = V/s(m³/s) x D(kg/m³) = uA D

Force = rate of change of momentum ..
F = (mv - mu) / t = m/t (v-u) .. .. assuming the air comes to rest, then v = 0 and ..
F = -(m/t)u .. .. (against the motion)

F = (uAD)u .. .. u²AD .. .. ►F = 33² x A x 1.20 .. (N)

Thankyou

Can u solve this question as well

"Q6(a)(i)", I didn't get the marking scheme on this one but is the answer something like this that resistance decreases with increasing p.d. since its an increasing curve (current is increasing)

It can be seen from the upward bending curve that the current does not increase proportionally to the voltage. It increases more than the voltage, which hints that with increasing voltage, the resistnace of C decreases.

Not sure about this one. Here's what the examiner report says:
The answer to this question cannot reliably be obtained by guesswork. Eliminating the pressure at P gives
(h1–h2)ρg = 8000 Pa, so (h1–h2) = 0.060 m. D is the only answer that fits.

There was this question which asked:
Making reference to the laws of electromagnetic induction, suggest why:
1) an emf is induced in the wire,
2) the emf is alternating.
For the first part obviously we'll use the faraday's law to answer.
But can any one answer the second part WITH REFRENCE TO A LAW?
I mean obviously when a wire is moving up and down, its direction changes and thus (by right hand rule) we know that the direction of induce current will change as well. but how to answer in terms of a law? please help.

Yes D is the answer.... Thankyou very much for your help :)

The calculation shows that it takes 2 ms for one wave to complete its cycle. Now each square on the horizontal axis respresents 0.5ms. Thus dividing 2/0.5, it must take 4 complete squares for the wave to complete on cycle. That happens only in B
thnk u so much
