I have a question myself, nov05 question 5
answer should be D but its C :(

your supposed to add the uncertainties which means its 0.1+(0.01*3)= 0.13
anyone help??? cause this is not the answer

no i am pretty sure its C , whenever u r calculating uncertainties if its multi or division........u have to percentage uncertainties so
0.1/25 x 100 = 0.4%
0.01/5 x 100 = 0.2%
0.01/2 x 100= 0.5%
0.01/1 x 100 = 1%

now u add these so u get 2.1%......however we want in decimal
so 2.1/100 x 2.5= 0.0525

hope it helped

Q3
use the cosine rule , the angle would be 60
so
resultant= sqrt [10^2+10^2-(2*10*10*cos60)]
=10

6 D V=IR to get R=8 then add the uncertainites 20%+5% =25% of 8 +-2
Not technically the right way to do it.
11. D elastic so separation speed = approach speed and momentum conserved o
only possible answer is d

Q18
v^2=u^2+2as
0= 10^2 + 2 * -a* 10
(a is negative as its decelrating)
a=5m/s^2
same force means same acceleration so:
same equation we use, but instead of u we put 30 and instead of "a" we put 5
u will get 90m which is D

thankyou but for Q11 could u explain in detail ..how to apply this theory? ???

why is the angle 60?

why is the angle 60?

becaus ei have to imagine the same line on the other side, which makes it parallel, parallel lines: their interior angle add up to 180
so 180-120=60
trignometry u will have to imagine a triangle and use the cosine formula there

np
ok Q24
just draw 6 lines imagine each as a node, count the spaces between the line  they are 5 spaces
30/5 = 6cm
so 6 is one space  , the distance form one line to the other (one node to the other) makes half a wavelength
which is 6cm
one full wavelength is thereofre 12cm so its D


Q31
first find total resistance :
(6*3)/(6+3)=2
2+2= 4 ohms
total R= 4 ohms
total V=12V
now find voltage for the parallel connections , treat the 6ohms and 3ohms as a single resistor so:
(6*3)/(6+3)=2
2* current = 2*3=6V
since its parallel , the 6ohms gets 6V so does the 3ohms
so
R=V/I
I=V/R
I=6/6= 1 A

got it?

31 (why not C) 21 20

Q14: its B because its in equiliberium which means the triangle arrows must be head to tail like in B
Q31: R=V/I
R=row L/A
since V , L ,row are same they cancel out so we can write it like this
1/I = 1/A  (THIS IS FOR P)=1/A(THIS IS FOR Q)

FOR P:
A= pie r^2  thereofre
1/pie

FOR Q:
A=pie r^2 therefore
1/pie 4
 
we cancel out the pie this remains
P:Q
1:1/4
so P is 4 times bigger than Q so its D

20: D (brownian motion)
