This was the worst paper ever. I didn't have time to even shade 2 questions. Really upsetting. Hope the threshold is 25-26.

Student records the value of height and time to determine the value of free fall acceleration. Which result will provide value of acceleration greater than 9.81ms-1?(D)

Did they ask for greater value????

Yea. They did say greater than 9.81... I had to make this equation g=2H/t^2 and then answer it.

Q19..'the percentage error involved'?(D)

Did they really ask for the % error? Or the efficiency ? o_O

Guyz what was WIDTH 2w or square root 2 . And for coherence or diffraction and interference. I think it should be coherent becauze first step is coherent , second step is DIFRACTION and interference

I dont remember the last question :p


Q4 was D,the one that started straight but ended up going upwards with increasing gradient.
Q5,im sure it was C,the one with 2 perpendicular force of similar length with strange directions.
Q14,i think it was B or C,just had to use pgh.
Q31 it was A
Q32,wasnt it A?The one that had arrows from Positive into negative?Im sure that diagram was A.
Q35 it was A i think,above x axis and exponential type
Q38 wasnt it B?Number of nucleons or smthing like that?
Q39 was B
Total have doubt/wrong in 7 Qs. 3,4,10,12,21,34,38.All others are 100% IA.Hopefully GT will be less than 30 IA.

Yea even I marked C.. Dunno if its correct or not
Q14 was B i guess... Yea just pgh
Q31 im not sure... I marked that D but there was confusion in A and D
Q32... B had the arrow from positive to negative... A had it from negative to positive... This was a repeat qstn too
Q35 yea i marked thay A too
Q38 yea it was nucleons but I dont remember the correct option
Q39 i dunno :p... I remember 1alpha and 2beta

32,damn i guess i knew the ans but marked it wrong :/
So total max of 35 if i marked right but remember wrong,and min 32.Still within an A IA

Stop,wait a minute,i guess the ordering of the questions is off a bit,because all 3 of us got A in Q32(look in the chat) and maybe this question was not 32,and maybe another.Are you 100% positive it was B?Because such a silly mistake seems highly unlikely.
