Please anyone help me out. Physics AS level practical question say
Describe four sources of uncertainty or limitations of the procedure for this
experiment.
One of the answer for this is "Two readings are not enough (to draw a conclusion)"
and it also say Do not credit: "Few readings Take more readings and calculate average k Only one reading."
What is the is conclusion for this statement.Please anyone explain. Thanks in advance.

Take more sets of reading, plot a graph and draw conclusion.

Are all quantities such as mass, time and length are to be measured in SI base unit in practical. For example mass in kg instead of g ?

does anyone remember what was the answer to the question about the circuit with a variable and constant resistor in parallel and the other six ohm resistor in series , the one with the 24 volt battery ? in the part where he asked to calculate the resistance of the constant resistor X ? this ques could be the difference between my getting an A or a B .. please help :( .... Tense!
p.s im talking about v 22

Hei bro,,this is an answer someone gave in the forum......
5 b ii) 1 In the equation, 1/2mv^2 = qV
mass n charge are constant, so velocity is directly proportional to p.d.
Reducing the pd ---> velocity of the particle will also decrease.
So, the deflection will b larger.

2 the magnetic field is providing the centripetal force in this case. So, when mag. field strength increases, the force exerted by it also increases ( F = BIl)
So, since the centripetal force now increases, the deflection will again b larger!

Hey can anyone please explain that why won't the displacement in xcm be written as x=x*sinwt??? In the marking scheme they've used cos but in s.h.m we always use sin for displacement.

Bro if start from middle use sin,,,,,if start above or below equilibrium position use cos...K?
