* if ray is going from denser to rarer, then angle of refraction will be greater than angle of incidence
* if ray is going from a rarer to a denser medium, then the angle of incidence is greater than the angle of refraction

Ohkey...Thx
And thx snake..
And Can anyone Explain me The motor effect...I cant seem to understand it :S
And wats the difference between An AC generator and a DC motor... :S
Thx
Baladya:
An ac generator generates electricity by the electromagnetic induction. So basically u have only a magnet, wire, and an ammeter. Cut the field lines with the wire and u will see electricity being generated (the ammeter have a reading). On the other hand, a d.c motor works by electricity not make it. Again u have a magnet,coil around like a piece of wood or smth, split ring and brushes to allow it it to spin freely, and a POWER SUPPLY. This is the main diff, the power supply supllies the wire with electricity, when there is eletricity inside a wire, it creates a magnetic field. This magnetic fields interacts with the magnetic field of the magnet and causes the piece of wood to spin. The spinning motion cause other things to spin (for example wheals in toy cars). Also this is by d.c like the name say, while the a.c generator generates an a.c current ;) Hope this helps :)
The motor effect i think is the thing i just told u about: when a wire has current in it, it creats a magnetic field. This magnetic field interacts with the magnet so it spins (just like u put to similar poles next to each other, they will repel and spin or smth) (this is why my dad keeps telling me not to leave electricity next to me while sleeping cuz its not healthy :P)[but m not sure of the health thing tho, cuz our teacher said that magnetic forces are okay to the body, but anyway this is just an extra thing ;D ^^]
Now my turn :D ;D

Question 2. I don't want answers, i just want to understand. First, what is the motion of the current? Second, if it comes from right to left, how come the table show that ciruit 3 has the least Voltage in the Voltmeter. To me it looks like it had a longer path through wire D>C>B and then S, so its supposed to lose more voltage and the voltage difference would be more...

Also this, Question 1) d) ii) I freakin don't understand why is 0.72 wrong!! I got the speed in (i) which is 0.6 and all i have to do is multiply by 1.2. This is what the mark scheme says but they say that the answer shouldnt be 0.72 HOWWWWW??!!!
Baladya:
Hey is this right>>>>>?
The whole of a sealed, empty, dusty room is kept at a constant temperature of 15 °C. Light
shines into the room through a small outside window.
An observer points a TV camera with a magnifying lens into the room through a second
small window, set in an inside wall at right angles to the outside wall.
Dust particles in the room show up on the TV monitor screen as tiny specks of light.
(a) In the space below draw a diagram to show the motion of one of the specks of light over
a short period of time.

Thx alot.... :D
Question:
What is the way of making sure that when u remove electrodes from a beaker the gap between the electrodes remain same?Or anyother way of measuring the gap between the electrodes while they are immersed :S
And can anyone clearly explain what is the Parallax error and how to avoid it?
Thx...

--- Quote from: Ari Ben Canaan on April 01, 2010, 11:07:59 am ---When calculating the gradient of a line in PAPER 6 a mark is given for drawing a triangle 'more than half the length of the line'.
The examiners report also refers to the TRIANGLE METHOD alot. What is this method/how does it work.
The only way I know to calc. a gradient is using (y2-y1)/(x2-x1).
--- End quote ---
Well there are 2 ways to calculate the gradient.
1. By taking 2 points on the line and using (y2-y1)/(x2-x1) like you said.
2. Is by using the triangle method you take the 2 points you connect them by a tringle , By forming a traingle you calculate the differece
in y and divide by difference in x. The direction of the line will tell if the value will be positive or negative.
hope u understsand,

Its quite simple if you get used to it, and its much quicker than using th formula.
