The problem is for c(ii)
i use Vout/V in=1 +Rf/R1
Replacing the values Vin=+0.4 , Rf =120 R1=5
i get answer :10 V
But the answer from marking scheme is 9 V . Can someone tell me the Reason ? is it linked to the diagram in part B ?
When the gain is more than the supply voltage 10>9 V, the op-amp will go into saturation. So, normally you get back the supply voltage.

a. seconds


b. hours

c. years


d. one-millionth of a second

dear all,
i need a suggestion and hope that u guys will suggest me the best,
i've got really unexpected result c in maths and d in chem and physics
i'm planning to appear for AS PHY this november and appear for chem accelerated in may/june 2016 as my teacher suggested so, before i appear for chemistry im going to get my papers rechecked because i dont think i can get less than an A.
plz give me your suggestion in this matter... SHOULD I APPEAR FOR PHY IN NOV OR NOT?
P.S. i was expecting STRAIGHT A's

A computer hard disk starts from rest, then speeds up with an angular acceleration of 190 rad/s^2 until it reaches its final angular speed of 7200 rpm.

How many revolutions has the disk made 10.0s after it starts up?

it's a horizontal plane. i don't think this equation is correct
oh, you're right. I didn't see that. In that case Fc must be equal to Tension, so the formula F= mv^2/r (F= ma) should work.
F= 0.15 x 22.17 (acceleration calculated in b)
= 3.3264 N

I got the exact answer via a different method
I equated TSINtheta to Fc ( found in part b)
and Tcostheta to Weight
and found the resultant which was equal to the tension.

Thanks for helping though. :)

I've been doing noticing in the MCQs lately that certain questions accept power=force x velocity
Whilst, yet other questions accept only power=work done/time taken.

Great! Had totally forgotten about that method.

Aoa everyone. Can somebody please guide me to A2 topical worksheets? I mean question papers? It is difficult to check for a specific chapter in every paper.

Hi
I just started my AS physics course 2 weeks ago and I have a quiz
I don't understand what's the difference between law of conservation of energy and work energy principle
