Any quick way to calculate the energy except for counting boxes... Its time consuming...

I didnt get it.... Why isnt it C? I mean the gradient of I/V should be highest so that V/I should be lowest and R=V/I so R should be lowest...

Force needs to be perpendicular to the pivot for maximum pivot. Draw a straight line from the center of the handle to the tip. F needs to be perpendicular to this line.
do u mean like this?? but pivot is the thing to which handle is attached, no? :

Which process doesn't require energy to be supplied?

A. Boiling
B.Evaporation
C.Freezing
D.melting

Isn't the correct answer Evaporation??

The mark scheme says C. :/

Your arrow doesn't start at the pivot. Look at A and C, F is at an angle to the line from the pivot in C but it is closer to 90 degrees in A, so there will be a larger moment in A.

Wire is of same steel so same Young Modulus. The difference will be in extension.

Compression is proportional to length but also inversely proportional to area of cube.
But then the option says delta l is proportional to L (being the length and not the area l^2)??

Ok so in this case they've just added the actual uncertainties to get D
But then when would you use the percentage uncertainty to get the value? (which gives A here)
Why don't you use % uncertainty in this question??

But then the answer says compression (delta l) is inversely proportional to l (option B is the answer)
Then it should be A or C right?? :confused:
It is directly proportional to l and also inversely proportional to l^2.
So in overall equation it is proportional to l/l^2. Simplify to get 1/l.
