i found this in the syllabus:
-''Show an understanding of the origin of the upthrust acting
on a body in a fluid''

what does that mean???

-''Recognise that, for a perfectly elastic collision, the relative
speed of approach is equal to the relative speed of
separation''

and could someone briefly explain this and give an example, how are the questions diiferent from the normal m1u1 +m2u2=m1v1 + m2v2
??????? :-[ :-\
everyday we wake up is a miracle, then how do we say miracles dont happen?????

The first one is Archimedes principle. The upthrust is equal to the weight of fluid displaced and for the second one mass is not involved.  http://www.astarmathsandphysics.com/a_level_maths_notes/M2/a_level_maths_notes_m2_restitution_momentum_collisions.html

but the As syllabus doesn't include the restitution principle
V of approach=V of seperation..so v1+u1=v2+u2

the ultimate tensile stress is a point before the fracture/breaking point.where the materia "gives" or "yields'??
is this right?

nope..only the first part is right..UTS is NOT the yield point..the yield point is the point where plastic deformation starts...UTS is simply the stress where the material breaks..

what wld a displacement position graph for a longitudnal wave look like?
if anyone has notes on superposition and resonance particularly explaining the wavelenght and lenght if you could post it here it wld be realli helpful  :)

Graph is an exact duplicate of the one for transverse wave

Notes: http://www.s-cool.co.uk/alevel/physics.html   go to oscillations and waves part

2.why not A? how do we know the direction of the resultant force?
could you please explain Q's 15 and 35 in more detail

Also o/n 2002 paper 1; 36

could someone explain q3b
i dont get it , dont we have to use the fdsin thita formula here..shouldnt the distance be perpendicular to the force..
in the ms..they multiplied the distance (in the direction of X) by X
??????????????????URGENT
thx
everyday we wake up is a miracle, then how do we say miracles dont happen?????
