could some one tell me about these ??
Q1- is Wave theory included in our syllabus ?
Q2- does any one have good explanation for reflection diffraction and refraction and anything related to it ?
Q3- in Transfer of thermal energy there is a Question >> or rather a tip
" As a minimum you should learn and be able to explain the followings : Costal breeze , The vacuum flask and the green house . "
i was wondering if any one knows what that means or have taken it ,, could you please explain ?
Q4- from past papers paper6 O/N 2001 Q 5 b) can any one give me some precautions ? not similar way of the MS because i don't understand them; in the same paper Q 3 part a) ii , i don't get the thickness like the MS i get 1.1 and its 1.2 there every such small difference made the rest of the calculations totally different ., so is this because we are using a photocopied version ?? so lines are not clear or what ?
Q5- O/N 2002 Q1 part b) & c)
and does any one uses the physics book by " Mc davis " or by "stephen Pople " or " mike Folland " ?? can any one tell me which is good if your have them ?
thanks

I use the book by stephan pople and overall i find it very very good because it is concise and tells u everything u need to know. i don't know the other persons so i can't really compare, but i can tell u that stephen pople's books are very good.

help please ???!! :-[

here's a link for you to get an idea of how stephen pople's books r like:

Make the pins vertical
Make the pins widely spaced.

-
no they are mix Questions for book as well as paper 6

Where can i find the questions?

the past paper part i've written the paper and year

and for the rest i study from a guide made for IGCSE examination and its from them , it explains wave theory for each refraction diffraction and reflection which is very complicated and i don't recall studying it in my other books . so i was wondering if it is really included the wave theory .
and that book have " examiners tips " with each chapter and topic .
with the topic " transfer or thermal energy " under the heading " Everyday Uses of consequence of the transfer of thermal energy" : there was this tip
As a minimum you should learn and be able to explain the followings : Costal breeze , The vacuum flask and the green house . "
