Title: 2012 may 33 paper q 1 troubling
Post by: kaipai on October 17, 2012, 07:14:45 pm

Hi All!

The practical paper 33 physcis 2012 may Question 1 is irritating me becoz there it is asked to take five readings of m but the ir(the instruction manual which explains the quantity of apparatus supplied) says only 2 '100 gm slotted' mass & one '50 gm slotted' and 2 '100g mass hanger'. NOw if you look at dat question, you find out that after adding the first 150 gm (combined m of mass hanger and the 50 gm, you are left with only 2 100 gm slotted masses; how would you then take 4 other readings???

Please help me becoz it is troubling me a lot. Go plzzzzz see the paper yourself as well as the ir avaialbe here on sf.......help......plzzzzzzzzzzzz

Thanksssssssssss a lotttttttt
