A measurement of 327.66ms-1 accurate to 3%
which of the following gives her result expressed to the appropriate no of significant figures?
a) 327.7 b)328 c)330 d)300

the current in a resistor is marked as (2.50+/-0.05)mA
the resistor is marked as 4.7 +/- 2% ohms
if these values were used to calculate the power dissipated what is the percentage uncertanity
a) 2% b) 4% c)6% d) 8%

a) 2% b) 4% c)6% d) 8%
For resistance the percentage uncertainity is given which is 2%
For current u can find it by 0.05/2.5 * 100 = 2%
The formula is P=I^2 * R
so we'll multiply the current's uncertainity by 2 which will give 4%
now add both % uncertainities = 4+2=6%
hence answer is C
-
but current is given a mA we dont take the 'm' into account here?
and dont u have to find the fractional uncertanity for both and add them?

For uncertainity u dont have to count the milli but for findind the actual power u will need to count it.
The simplest way to find the % uncertainity is find the % unc. of all the variables and add then so there is no neeed to find fractional unc.

thnkx this actually makes sense :)
-
the ans to the first question is c 330ms-1...
any ideas
-
Because 330 is in the range 327.66 -3% to 327.66+3%

thnkx :D

A balloon is ascending with a uniform vertical velocity of 10ms-1.when at a height of 600m above the ground. A stone is dropped from it.
how long does the stone take to strike the ground?
with what velocity does the stone strike the ground
ASAP please
thnkx
-
Because 330 is in the range 327.66 -3% to 327.66+3%
Arent all the values in that range?
i dont think this is the correct logic.

ahh... :P
given momentum and time how do u find force?
-
F=ma
mv= momentum
change in momentum per unit time is force.
change in momentum is (mv-mu) = m(v-u)
Hence F=(m(v-u))/t
as (v-u)/t = a , we get F=ma
Dunno if this anwers your question LOL

mass is 12kg at u=5ms-1 collides with another obj at rest with mass of 8
i found out that the V total velocity is 3
and that kinetic energy lost is -60J
how do we find the exchange force..which By the way is 73N
wht exactly are the differences in momentum and kinetic energy when objects collide elastically and inelastically
???
-
@A.T : Thank you for your help in the forum, I can see you are new so welcome. +rep.
-
elastic collisions - momentum and energy conserved
inelastic collisions momentum conserved, energy not conserved
-
a nucleus of mass 1.67*10^-27 kg moving with a velocity of 2*10^4 collides head on with a boron nucleus of mass 1.7*10^-27kg orginally at rest.
find the velocity of the boron nucleus if the collison is perfectly elastic?
-
a nucleus of mass 1.67*10^-27 kg moving with a velocity of 2*10^4 collides head on with a boron nucleus of mass 1.7*10^-27kg orginally at rest.
find the velocity of the boron nucleus if the collison is perfectly elastic?
Data you know:
m1=1.67*10^-27 kg
m2=1.7*10^-27 kg
u1=2*10^4 ms-1
u2=0
In elastic the total momentum(mv) and the energy(1/2 mv^2) is conserved.
For conserved momentum u have eq:(denote as eq 1 )
m1u1+ m2u2 = m1v1 + m2v2
And for energy conserved the eq is: (denote as eq 2)
(1/2) m1 u1² + (1/2) m2 u2² = (1/2) m1 v1² + (1/2) m2 v2²
now substitute given values in both eq (1 and 2) and solve them simultaneously and u'll get values of v1 and v2. v2 will be the velocity of the boron nucleus.
this link can help u for your question: http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20081104122100AABK0SO
If collisions were INelastic then:(Just for ur concept)
m1=1.67*10^-27 kg
m2=1.7*10^-27 kg
u1=2*10^4 ms-1
u2=0
Using m1u1+ m2u2 = m1v1 + m2v2
as the collision is perfectly elastic the final velocity of both objects after collision would be zero,and knowing that u2=0 we get:
m1u1=V(m1+m2)
put the given values and you will get v = 9910 ms-1 (correct to 3 significant fig.)

ok a mass of 8kg moving at 6ms-1 towards another block of mass 4kg at 3ms-1
its a head on collison
how would u find the momentum transferred from one block to the other. if its elastic? and if its inelastic?
tnkx :)
-
For inelastic you would have to know the velocity of one arter the collision then do m(v-u) for inelastic use restitution principle.

tnkx :)
If inelastic: (they would become one particle(join) after collision and will have the same velocity)
formula for inelastic:
m1u1 + m2u2 = V(m1+m2)
Use it to find V(the combined velocity) multiply it by masses to get the momentum.
For elastic u'll have to do all the long working shown in last last question,but as far as i know in A-levels they give u a value of one of the final velocity which makes it easier and u can simply find it using
m1u1+ m2u2 = m1v1 + m2v2
-
http://www.astarmathsandphysics.com/a_level_maths_notes/M1/a_level_maths_notes_m1_impulse.html
You do need the speed of one of the particles after the collision, or a condition - the become one particle so have the same speed, one has twice the speed of the other, one particle comes to rest etc so you can use the formula Impulse=m(v-u)

A 30 kg block (M1) is placed on a frictionless plane that inclines at a 30° angle with respect to the surface of Earth. This block is connected to another 20 kg block (M2) via a weightless rope over a frictionless, ideal pulley. The second block is hanging vertically.
What is the tension of the rope?
(a) 55.0 N
(b) 92.4 N
(c) 147.4 N
(d) 176.6 N
(e) 294.6 N
explained as simple as possible :(

Resolving forces on the 30 kg mass:
T-30gsin(30)=ma
T-30gsin(30)=30a ....1
Resolving forces on 20 kg mass:
W-T=ma
20g-T=20a.....2
solving 1 and 2 simulataneously:
T-30gsin(30) + 20g-T = 30a + 20a
a=0.981 ms-2
T=20g-20a from 2
T=20*9.81 - 21(.981)
T=175.599=175.6 N
Hence answer is C

According to question it seems the center rope in vertical.
IF all ropes were vertical the tension in each string would be:
3T=W
3T=10g
T=100/3 N
Hence the center rope has a tension of 100/3 N
now for the end ropes, as they are at 70 degree angle both their vertical component is:
Tsin(70)=100/3
T=35.5N
hence tension in the both end rope is 35.5N
-
c are u sure?
isnt it d??
-
why did u take the vertical component???
By the way Thanks a lot :D
-
c are u sure?
isnt it d??
from my concpets it IS C.
-
why did u take the vertical component???
By the way Thanks a lot :D
It depends if tension was in horizontal direction you would have to resolve horizontally,but now its vertical so we will have to resolve vertically and hence find the vertical component.

ok so im gonna attempt figuring this out

could someone explain briefly which formulas do we use exactly for elastic and inelastic collisions
URGENT
thx
-

URGENT
thx
For elastic:
m1u1+m2u2=m1v1+m2v2 OR you can use the energy conservation formula
for inelastic
m1u1=m2u2=V(m1+m2)

electricity question:
1.When a battery in a toy car delivers a current of 0.75A, the p.d across its terminals is 1.3 V. when the car's motion is reversed the current delivered by the battery and the p.d. across its terminals becomes 12A and o.80v respectively.
calculate for the battery
a)the emf
b)the internal resistance
2.physics oct nov 2005 q6 part A(explained in detail)
-
which paper is this from?
-
the first question...it isnt from a worksheet the physics teacher gave us...
-
the last should be m1u1+m2u2=v(m1+m2)
for perfectly inelastic collsions - bodies stick together
-
I dont understand the question
-
this is all thats given in the worksheet
there is no diagram or anything
ive attached the paper with the second problem.
its q6 part a
-
the first question...it isnt from a worksheet the physics teacher gave us...
LOL wut? :P
And for no oct/nov 2005 Q
Similarity is that they both have same wavelengths which is 3.
difference is phase difference the one is a sine wave the other is a cosine wave and they have a phase difference of pie(180 degree)(half wave)
-
i meant it is...typo :P :P too much physics
and its Q6 not 5 part a :)
-
6a)Y is positively charged since drop must be repelled by Y and attracted by X to remain stationary. The electric force must balance gravity.
Is this the right question? V Simple

Electricity:
Question:
1. State kirchoff's laws. use the laws to deduce the laws of Ia and Ib as shown in the figure.
The circuit is here:
http://tinypic.com/r/t5j3iu/5 (http://tinypic.com/r/t5j3iu/5)
2.the circuit is attached.We need to find I1 I2 and I3
could someone solve these immediately
i have an exam tommorrow :( :(
-
is this the answer for question 2?
I1= 0.44
I2=0.39
I3=0.834
?????
-
When I get home
-
V2+V3=3
I2=2I3 whe I2 is current in 2 ohm resistor etc by symmetry
2I2+3I2=3 so I2=3/5A IA=IB=3/5A
-
V2+V3=3
I2=2I3 whe I2 is current in 2 ohm resistor etc by symmetry
2I2+3I2=3 so I2=3/5A IA=IB=3/5A
this is the answer to the first question?
-
Net voltage around left loop is 1V
V=IR so 1=6I so I=1/6A
similarly I2=1/5 and I3=1/5+1/6 sine the currents are opposed
-
this is what i did
in the circuit a third current -Ia-Ib is there
for the first loop going in an anti clockwise direction
2Ia+3(-Ia-Ib)-2=0
2Ia-3Ia-3Ib-2=0.
-1Ia-3Ib-2=0.....(1)
in the second loop.
going anticlockwise
-2Ib-3(-Ia-Ib)+2=0
-2Ib+3Ia+3Ib+2=0
1Ib+3Ia+2=0....(2)
solving simulatneously.....
Ib as -o.5
and Ia by substitution as -0.5
what exactly have i done wrong?
-
its weird that i got this rite in the exam, but i cant solve it again,
haha heres how i did it.
Ia + Ib = Ic , heres the basic mistake which you did, which caused the whole thing to go rong.
Ia be a, and Ib be b
2-2a-3Ic=0
2-2b-3Ic=0
any 2 above can be used as equation 1
2-2a-3Ic=2-2b-3Ic
3Ic and 2 will get cancelled
you get an equation -2a+2b=0, this will be used as equation 2
now simultaneously solve
i will use loop a, and split Ic current
2-2a-3(a+b)=0
2-2a-3a+3b=0
1)2-5a+3b=0
2)-2a+2b=0
and voila! :D
-
whts d final answer???
and wht have i done wrong??
Reply fast
-
a and b both equal to 1/4A
-
:S:S
wht did i do wrong???
-
uh you didn't read my explanation, because i have stated your mistake in there...
-
:-[ sorry
ok soo why is Ic =Ia+Ib
???are a and b going out of the junction?

:-[ sorry

???are a and b going out of the junction?
if you complete the loop of both Ia and Ib you will find that they both meet up before entering the 3ohm resistor.
so Ia+Ib=Ic
i guess the going out part was just to create confusion

That is correct if you assume that the tension is unifor in the rod connecting the two, and it is paralell to the ground.
-
its 2A then 0A then 2 A
the answer is 0A THEN 0A THEN 0A

I guess cuz nothing's mentioned in the question

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
??????? :-[ :-\
-
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?
-
Yes, that is right.
-
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..

could solve this please???? ;D ;D ;D

16.2 is 32.4/2 half the wavelength

could solve this please???? ;D ;D ;D
Yes of course you consider the direction of motion.
check the attachment
momentum= 0.045X 4.2 - (0.045X -3.6) = 0.35 Ns

o/n 2008 paper 2 physics
a i in the ms the take s=12.8.
but it says the speed of the car before brakes are applied ??? ???
also isnt u=v (the speed with which the car is travelling) and v=0???
for the ii part why cant we use one of the formulas for acceleration?
-
i have a couple of questions:
for beta , alpha and gamma rays:
-which one deflects more in an electric field and why?
-and which one ionises more and why?
-and when we right the decay formulas, do we show the charge of the beta electron or alpha?
a-re all the 3 radiation coming from the nucleus?
thx

1) A beta particle is deflected more that an alpha particle in an electric field. This is because a beta particle ( a high energy, fast moving electrons) is much smaller and lighter than an alpha particle( a helium atom).
2) Alpha particles are strongly ionising but can be stopped by paper or skin.Because they have a strong positive charge (+2) and a mass of 4 (i.e. 4 times the mass of a proton)
and yes....all three radiations are originated from nucleus of the atom.

What is the density of the liquid mixture?
A)4/3? B)3/2? C)5/3? D)3?
-
how do we find the resistances?
see
the voltage at R3 is 2V
at R2 its 1V
at R1 its 2V (because all add up to 5V)
therefore R3 and R1 have same voltage therefore same resistance so its C

how did u find these voltages?
-
how did u find these voltages?
look at the diagram and treat each resistor as if its alone like first resistor its between the 0V and 2V
and second resistor its between 2V and 3V ...basically 3-2=1V
and the 3rd ...we know that total voltage is 5V its between 3V and 5V therefore 5-3=2V
got it?

q9) s=ut+ 1/2at^2
s=1/2at^2
2h=at^2
2h= a (t2 ^2 - t1^2)
2h/(t2 ^2 - t1^2) =a
11) speed of approach=speed of separation
uA - uB = vA - vB
different directions lets take this direction -----------> as (+)
so
uA-(-uB)=vA + vB
12) ------------> take as (+)
m1u1 + m2u2= m1v1 +m2v2
m1 *60 + (m2 * -30) = m1v +m2v (v is same)
cancel out the "m"
60-30 = 2v
30/2=15

14) 50g is on the other side
therefore clockwise = anticlockwise let z be the unknown distance so:
(20g * 60/100) + ( 100g * 10/100) = (50g * z)
g=9.8 and convert cm to m
so z=44 cm
17) constant speed , kinetic energy= 1/2mv^2
no change in velocity so no chang ein kiinetic energy therfore change=0
28) lamda = ax/D
increase lambda , increase x
36) find current first so:
first loop and 2nd loop total resistance (15*15/15+15) =7.5
so total resistance = 7.5
total Voltage = 2V
R=V/I
I=2/7.5 =0.2666666
THATS TOTAL CURRENT.......current in one loop divide by 2 = 0.133333
so IR=V
0.1333 * 5 =0.6666
and check the choices 2/3= 0.666666
so its A

11) speed of approach=speed of separation
uA - uB = vA - vB
different directions lets take this direction -----------> as (+)
so
uA-(-uB)=vA + vB
could you plz explain the difference between speed of approach and speed of seperation. how do we know that they are same?
wen and how can we use this formula? and why cant we just use m1u1+m2u2=m1v1+m2v2
plus wen u solve the ans u've given, it gives uA+uB=vA+vB but the mark scheme says its uA+uB=vA-vB
36) find current first so:
first loop and 2nd loop total resistance (15*15/15+15) =7.5

i got till the total current part, but why did u take the resistance as 5 in the next step?
Thanks alot for solving :)

because the resistor is between the terminal look at the second loo[, and view the resistor as a single component in a battery..........nid will explain q11 better than me

Q11) this is gonna be long...
In an elastic collision...momentum as well as kinetic energy is conserved,,
conservation of momentum
total momentum before collision=total momentum after collision.
mu1+mu2=mv1+mv2
conservation of k.e
1/2mu12+ 1/2mu22= 1/2mv12+1/2mv22
cancel all the halfs first, then cancel all the 'm' terms.
in steps...here's how u do it
m(u1-v1)=m(v2-u2) 1)
m(u12-v12)= m( v22-u22) 2)
since (u12-v12)= (u1-v1)(u1+v1)
& ( v22-u22)=(v2-u2)(v2+u2)
divide the 2nd eqn by the first
m(u12-v12) m( v22-u22)
---------------------------------= ------------------------------------
m(u1-v1) m(v2-u2)
m [(u1-v1)(u1+v1)]=[m(v2-u2)(v2+u2)]
------------------- ------------------
m(u1-v1) m(v2-u2)
and then cancelling gives
(u1+v1)=(v2+u2)
or
u1-u2=v2-v1
now coming back to the question.
u1-u2 in this case will be positive because u for the other body is in the opp direction
u1-(-u2)=u1+u2
v2-v1 will be as it...both move in the same direction after collision
so u1+u2=v2-v1
that was tiring....i really hope you got it

thank you soo much for that,
it was really helpful! :)

35) C
because electric field strength is the same at any point between the plates, so its constant
36) D
E=V/d
E=700/(5/1000)
mm to m
therefore its D and direction is always from (+) to (-)

in june 2004 wat formula did u use to find the velocity..i understand the part tht ur resolving ur finding the vertical component of velocity ryt
r u using the formula 2as=v2-u2 do u take u2 at 0
2as=v sin theta
but y do u take 2 theata??

you don't need the derivation
s= v2 sin 2
/ g

s= v2 sin 2 / g
v nvr used this formula so wat are the conditions tht u use it under
when thrs in angle or it requires more
is it used in projectiles also when u wana find the velocity ??

Thanks alot By the way
i believe thats because its a stationary wave
-
so the speed of a stationary wave is not the same as a progressive wave...but everything else is the same ryt the wavelength and the frequency....

28 Microwaves of wavelength 3.00 cm are incident normally on a row of parallel metal rods. The separation of the rods is 8.00 cm. The first order diffraction maximum is observed at an angle of 22.0° to the direction of the incident waves.
What is the angle between the first and second order diffraction maxima?
A 22.0° B 26.6° C 44.0° D 48.6°
-
Strange question
28 microwaves?
Where is the question from

nov 03 pp1,
i also have a few more doubts
4, 6, 14, 16,
-
d sin(theta) = n Lamba
for the first order maxima, i.e. the central maxima
8 sin (theta) = 3 x 1
Theta = 22.04
confirmed :)
For the second order maxima,
8 sin (theta) = 2 x 3
theta = 48.6
therefore, the angle between them is
48.6 - 22 = 26.6
Therefore B
