Oct/Nov 07 Q.2a(ii):
You don't have radius of a Helium-4 atom! Or do you?

May/June 06 Q.7(c):
λ is the wavelength which is directly proportional to ring diameter (common sense).

May/June 06 Q.2b(ii):

You don't need to calculate moles left in cylinder.
Once you have calculated volume of gas in cylinder at 1.85x10^5Pa,
subtract the volume of gas that remains in cylinder (4x10^4cm³) from it
and divide it by the volume of gas in balloon.

radius of He can b assumed to b separation/2 between the two neuclei! n what is this cube root anyway? this is also assumed...
n i got the others. thnx :)

Seperation/2 makes sense but cube root is a better approximate.
Did you try using seperation/2?

i did used this separation/2. then i put substituted value of radius in the formula for volume of sphere (simce v assume dat nucleus is a perfect sphere throughout our course in physics) so this method SHOULD B OK as well.
i dunno y examiner just took a cube root...

I don't see any problems with your method.
And I must say it was a nice catch.

The method they gave was absolutely right.
You found an alternate to it and doesn't makes marking scheme wrong!
