- In the part ii) to find moment, why are we using 'sin' 18?




AOA
gain in g.p.e depends up on the height to which the object raised.

so for calculating the increase in height from the initial position we have to use the formula 61.cos(18

by this we will get the distance covered by the string which is 58cm
now how much is the string raised initially?? subract 61 - 58 U will get 3cm.

this 3cm is the increase in height from ground.

NOW calculate g.p.e = mgh (51/1000)(9.81)(3/100) = 1.5*10^-2Ans

Assalamoalaikum wr wb!
I need help with Q:4c of Nov:2007 Paper:2
I don’t understand the last step…:confused:
Mark scheme
once we get
stress = force / area so area = force / stress
area = (1.9 × 103) / (9.5 × 108)
= 2.0 × 10–6 m2
now this is the minimum area the rod should have, so that it does not break.(lesser shall it be, the rod would break.) and this can only be such when the area of bubble is its maximum.
(max) area of cross-section = (3.2 – 2.0) × 10–6
= 1.2 × 10^–6
when bubble has 1.2 x 10^-6, rod has 2 x 10^-6, a total of 3.2 x 10^-6

PAPER 1!
Can someone please explain me the following Qs) 2,13,14,15,18,21,25,29
http://www.xtremepapers.com/CIE/International A And AS Level/9702 - Physics/9702_s09_qp_1.pdf

2) in this mcq you are given with the angle and horizontal component.use it to find the vertical comp.
Tan30 = Perpendicular / 20 , it comes 11.5N i.e C.

13) no convincing ans but the weight is making a torque of 180 Nm, how? 900 N into .20m (.20 is the perpendicular distance or the radius of the disc)
same torque will be shifted upwards in order to lift this weight i.e 180 = F into 1.20 m it comes 150 N hence B. ( i dnt knw why i took .20 as the perp distance to find the torque created by weight)

14) Power = F v , so k = P over v^3 because you need to add another v in the denominator as F = Power over velocity.

15) what i get is dat if u c in both vessels the height will decrease by half from the original height in the vessel X, means h will bcm h/4 altogether, so the answer will be B mgh/4.

18) pressure = pgh , p ang remain constant. u know that h has increased in the right side of manometer. i.e pressure has increased. there is only option D 2pgh which supports this idea. other three options shows decrease or no change in the pressure.

21) strain energy = 1/2 F into x so 1/2 into 17 into 30 /100 it comes around 2.5 J but the best estimate would be less then that i.e 2 Joules which is nearest to the whole number. 3J would be very higher i.e A option

25)i dnt understand :mad: , it shud be C but its A, d sin Q = n lambda , this s what comes after moving here nd dre things
n/N = sin Q / Lambda

PAPER 1 m/j 2010
I need help with the following questions please - 5,9,15,16,20,29
http://www.xtremepapers.com/CIE/International A And AS Level/9702 - Physics/9702_s10_qp_11.pdf

5 is c, test it urself take force to be 10N and increase the vertical component angle sin theta i mean, then do it same for the horizontal cos component.


9)B it is displacement time graph whose gradient will show us the velocity. velocity is gonna increase every second aat the rate of 9.8m /s/s . so B shows a graph like dat..

15)pretty simple. use the formula Power = F into v
total force included force of the load and the crane. load's mass is 1000kg , apply W=mg to find the force....this will be 11000 into .50 = 5.5kW hence B

20) Force= spring constant into extension or compression. take any force from the graph say 8 N see the extension its 60 mm minus the original spring legth which is 40 mm extension comes 20mm ! convert 20 mm into meters. it comes 200N/m at the end..

^ I still dont get this part :(
