It unexpectedly went well for the most part. I was completely tense since last night for this one but thankfully, it wasn't difficult.

how did everybody find the exam
Title: Re: 6PH02:HOW WAS PHYSICS UNIT 2?
Post by: 3bood on June 09, 2010, 10:19:44 pm
actually all the people who took the exam said that it was hard
and it was for me
hope the curve will be low :S

man nobody is gonna survive even if we did the best in this paper we f*cked up in practical most ppl did cuz it wasnt a practical paper at all

it was actually better than unit 1..but still hoping the curve gets low this time......

Physics Unit 2 was good 7amdulillah, but I will not say it was excellent.

yer Physics 2 was better than physics one which totally screwed me up!

yesh i agreee tooooooo! :D

it was plain good! :D

so i think we can discuss now ryt?

wat did u guys ryt 4 da doppler effect speedin thing? part c
n wat abt da voltage question for 3 marks it decreases right?? howd u guys answer it wen da temp is lowered??
Title: Re: 6PH02:HOW WAS PHYSICS UNIT 2?
Post by: 7ooD on June 10, 2010, 03:12:17 pm
there was no time so i said that they measure the speed by multiplying frequency received by wavelength and for the oil and water i said total internal reflection and reflection from oil surface interfere wiz each other thats why we see the monochromatic interference and for the glass i said it was critical angle thats why ray didnt pass through the air and i got the angle 43. something and for the computer question the power one i said time was more than doubled because if energy is kept constant the power will be less than half because of internal resistance of battery and power is inversely proportional to time therefore time is more than doubled thats all i can remember :d

guys wht did u get for the refractive index ?
in the multiple choice question of resistor and filament lamp what was the current was it 0.2?

What you said about the UPS doesnt make sense.....

For the light it is a different thing.

You see when the light rays hit, they go into antiphase.

This causes them to super impose with the light outside.

Thus, this causes areas of darkness and areas of light.

Post by: 7ooD on June 10, 2010, 06:05:49 pm
yes rite constructive interferance occur as a result of them hitting each other but i forgot to write areas of darkness and areas of light cuz they didnt as about it do i still get the mark?

and for the glass did i write it rite? and wat waz i suppose to say for they ups

For the UPS, the thing is that the computer is not 100% efficient.

So, that means that more of the power is used, compared to 700W, from which 80% may be used, to 350 W, from which 80% is to be used.

The 350 has less power wastage. Thus, meaning that more of the power is actually used in comparison. So it is not really completely halved.

hmmmmmm.....

for da UPS last question i just said as current is lost as heat in da cables n as p=i2r more power is lost so it decreases more dan half....doest dat make any sense? :(

n 4 da last mcq i got 0.3??

wat abt da thermistor last part?? did da current decrease? :?

and for the ups question i said it is related to efficiency

the no. of flashes was like 17xx i actually dont remember the xact value now, but it was seventeen hundred something........

the answer is 1728 flashes and yes, the ups question is related to efficiency.

I doubt that is the correct number of flashed to be honest.
