Physics>May/June 08>P3(First Variant Question Paper)

Question 8, (c)

The three 60W lamps are replaced by 3 energy-saving ones, that give the same light output buy are rated at only 15W each.

Calc,
(i) The total reduction in power...
(ii) the energy saved when the lamps are lit for 1hr...

Could someone explain this with the working out pls, only the answers are written in the mark scheme. Thank You

c) i - total reduction in power:

first calculate both the powers before and after
P1 before replacing:   60x3= 180w
P2 after replacing:     15x3= 45w
      subtract          ____________
                                      135 w   is the reduction in power

ii)  energy saved when lights are lit for one hour
calculate the energy while using 3 ,60w lamps =  VIT = 60x3x3600 = 64000
calculate the engery while using 3, 15w lamps = VIT = 15x3x3600 =162000
                                                                  subtract            __________
                                                                                           486000 J   energy saved  468 KJ

plz help me with this Question : its from my text book ..

Q- a 3kW electric heater is used to heat up 2.5kg of water of specific latent heat  capacity 4200J/kg/c . the initial temp is 16 degree. Work out the final temp. after the heater has been switched on for 2 minutes ?


wats the way to solve this  ??? plz someone

McT=Pt so T=Pt/Mc=3000*120/2.5*4200=34.3 this is the increase in pens so add on the initial temp

Draw a horizontal line from B to A. The angle between this line and the line AB is 10 degrees by the z rule then the bearing is 360-(10+90)=260

C from B 360-(10+90+115)=145

Please i need help with these math questioons, with explanation on how u did it.. thanksssssssssssss

Nov 07 p2 Q12: A and B are sets write the following sets in thier simplest form
a) A n A'
b)A u A'
c) (A u B) U (A n B')

16a) A car manufacturer sells a similar, sclale model of one of its real cars
a) the fuel tank of the real car has a volume of 64litres and the fuel tank of the model has a volume of 0.125 litres.. show that the length of the real car is 8 times the length of the model car

Answer(b) [3]

i am not that good at sets soo im really sorry pal

Q16a) its basically similarity

.125/64 = (x/8) cube

its a basic known this when its a volume its --> volume A/ volume B = (length or height A / length or height B) cube the bracket

and the same for area only u sq. it not cube it :D

Q21) a) Wht their asking for it FAC

sq. root (800sq+600sq) = 1000

Tan Q= 200/1000

Q = 11.3

b) ok work with me cause this is really difficult ....

i put up an image to help u image ... sorry if its messy ... ill just do the working here ... hope u under stand

we can do tan cause we need angle DCA

tan Q = 800/600

Q = 53.13

add 180 to that cause they want the bearing ... so its adds up to 233.13
