Section B:

1 (a) -put the object to a displacement can with water [1]

-measure the volume of the object as the volume of water removed by
displacement can [1]
(b) mass=39.943 g , Volume=22.7 dm3= 22700 cm3 [1]
Density= 39.943/22700=0.00176 gcm-3 [1]
(c) (i) 0.07 (mm) [1]
(ii) 7.5 + 0.39=7.89 [1]
7.89 – 0.07 = 7.82 mm [1]

18−(−12)
2 (a) (i) 9−4
[1]
−2
=6𝑚s [1]
(ii) distance= 18 × (12 − 10) = 36 𝑚 [1]
(iii) the object decelerates from 18 m/s to stop [1]
(b) (i) 𝐹 = 45 × 6 [1]
= 270 N [1]
(ii) 𝐼𝑚𝑝𝑢𝑙𝑠𝑒 = 270 × 2 [1]
= 540 Ns [1]
(iii) F = m x a= 45 x 20/2 [1]
= 450 N [1]

3 (a) (i) the gravitational force/ pull to an object [1]

(ii) the ratio of mass and volume of an object or substance [1]
(b) (i) 54 x 10 =540 N [1]
(ii) 450 cm3 = 450/1000000= 0.00045 m3 [1]
Density= 54/0.00045 = 120,000 kgm-3 [1]

4 (a) Weight = 50 x 10 =500 N [1]

FA+FB = 750 + 500 = 1250 N [1]
(b) 750x2 + 500x6 = FB x 12 [1]
FB = 375 N [1]

5 (a) height = 1.2-1 = 0.2 m [1]
PE= 1.5x10x.2= 3 J [1]
(b) PE= 1.5x10x1.2 =18 J [1]
Power= 18/3 = 6 Watt [1]

6 (a)(i) height =+24 mmHg [1]

Pressure of gas= 755 mmHg +24 mmHg = 779 mmHg [1]
(ii) height =-35 mmHg [1]
Pressure of gas= 763 mmHg -35 mmHg = 728 mmHg [1]
(b) Pressure difference= 779-728 = 51 mmHg = 0.051 m [1]
= 13600x10x0.051= 6936 Pascal [1]

7 (a) is a point where the substance is starting to change its phase from solid into
liquid form/ starting to break the particles’bond and becoming liquid [1]
(b) (i) the was increases its temperature from 35°C to 50°C. [1]
(ii) the wax starts to change its phase from solid into liquid [1]
(c) Two out of these: [2]
-it is easier to improve the temperature of substance in liquid form than in
solid form.
-the liquid bond is more flexible since there is space between the particles
compare to the solid bond
-the particles in liquid is less compact than in solid so it is easier to vibrate
more/faster

8 (a) latent heat (of vaporization) [1]

(b) the energy/heat is used to break the liquid bond between particles [1]
the energy is used to change the phase of the substance [1]
(c) Q= 1 x 4200 x 100 [1]
= 420,000 J= 420 kJ [1]
(d) evaporation is a process that happens at any temperature, boiling only
happens at boiling point [1]

9 (a) Laser pointer/ray box light shows that light is moving in straight line [1]
A picture of a straight line that goes to a pinhole [1]
1
(b) 𝑐 = 𝑎𝑟𝑐 sin (1.3) − − − − − 𝑐 = 50.3 [1]
No, since it is still less than the critical angle [1]

10 (a) bent of wave because of edge of an object or small opening [1]

(b) at least three curve of lines are made after the barrier [1]
The curve starts at the paralell points to the edge of the gap [1]
(c) (i) [1]
(ii) f = 20 /2.5= 8 Hz [1]
(d) (i) no effect/very small spreading [1]
(ii) the sound wave will spread and can be heard on other corner [1]
