Firstly for q 8--make eqn relating same distance for both
s=ut+1/2at^2
(10)t +1/2(0)t^2=(0)(t)+1/2(0.5)t^2
ans=40s

I think I get Q33 :p
Just find the ratio of cross sectional area I guess, it will be 1:16, so resistance is 0.2*16= 3.2
not exactly u got that wrong
area of 0.5mm =(d^2/16)*pi
area of 1mm=(d^2/4)*pi
comparing both we find that
area of 0.5mm is 1/4 the area of 1mm
since volume of the wire remains the same whether u strech or not
V=l*A
for 0.5mm area decreases by four times so length should increaes by four so that we get the same V
R=pl/A equation 1
p(resistivity) will be constant
the length increases by 4 and area decreases by 4 this increases the R by 16
Rx=4pl/(A/4)
comparing Rx=16pl/A to equation 1 Rx should equal 16R end of story peace

question 17
Is answer a?
If it is this is the way ,1st mgh=1/2mv^2,,,,,m(9,81)(0.8-0.08)=1/2(m)(v^2)
v=3.76
after bounce given that 1/2mv^2=0.75
so subs into eqn n u will get===>mass is 0.1kg
Then u know conservation of energy so mgh after bounce is (0.1)(9.81)(0.45-0.08)

A small charge q is placed in the electric field of a large charge Q. Both charges experience a force F. What is the electric field strenght of the charge Q at the position of the charge q?

A F/Qq B F/Q C FqQ D F/q

Answer is D but whyyy?????

A barrel of mass 50 kg is loaded onto the back of a lorry 1.6 m high by pushing it up a smooth plank 3.4 m long.
What is the minimum work done?
A-80J. B-170J. C-780J. D-1700J.

Explain me the answer, its C.

mgh===>50(9.81)(1.6)=780j

Because it is itself the formula of electric field strength===>E=v/d

guess it like this==>1/2mv^2
1/2*(100)*(10^2)
100===weight of an adult
10ms^-2==velocity of usain bolt in 100m race
My calculation give 5000j
It is the nearest to your answer..
Just an estimation question.

Because i guess the formula states electric field strength=force per unit test charge.Test charge is a small charge.
I guess this is the reason
