A student investigates the motion of a trolley as it travels down a slope. The student makes two measurements to determine the average speed of the trolley as it travels down the slope. State the two measurements. For each measurement, suggest the instrument used for making the measurement. 1. measurement instrument used 2. measurement instrument used shows the speed–time graph for a different trolley as it travels down a slope. time / s speed cm / s Determine the speed of the trolley at time = 2.0 s. speed = cm / s Determine the distance moved by the trolley from time = 0 to time = 4.0 s. distance = cm Using the information in , describe the motion of the trolley from time = 0 to time = 10 s.

shows an aeroplane flying. There are horizontal forces acting on the aeroplane, as shown in . 8000 N 12 000 N (not to scale) Calculate the resultant horizontal force on the aeroplane. resultant force = N direction of resultant force State the name of the effect producing the 8000 N force on the aeroplane. At a later time in the flight, the resultant horizontal force on the aeroplane is zero. Describe the horizontal motion of the aeroplane. shows the handle used to open and close a cupboard door on the aeroplane. 20 cm 60 N pivot (not to scale) A force of 60 N acts at a distance of 20 cm from the pivot of the handle. Calculate the moment of the 60 N force about the pivot. moment = N cm

shows a cross-section of a flask. The flask is used to keep a liquid hot. The flask has two glass walls with a vacuum between them. The surfaces of the glass walls are shiny. double-walled glass container hot liquid vacuum shiny surfaces plastic cap Explain how the shiny surfaces reduce the transfer of thermal energy from the hot liquid. Explain how the vacuum reduces the transfer of thermal energy from the hot liquid. Some of the hot liquid is poured out of the flask into a shallow dish. Explain how evaporation causes the liquid to cool. A student uses a microscope to view a small particle in the liquid. shows the path of the particle. small particle State the name given to the motion of the small particle. Explain why the small particle moves as shown in .

shows the main regions of the electromagnetic spectrum. Two of the regions are unlabelled. radio waves visible light ultraviolet rays X-rays γ - rays Complete the labelling in . Write the name of the radiation in each unlabelled region. State the name of one region of the electromagnetic spectrum that has wavelengths shorter than those of ultraviolet rays. represents a wave on a rope at one instant. displacement direction of wave travel distance moved by wave On , draw a line representing one wavelength. Label the line L. A student incorrectly writes some sentences about electromagnetic waves. His teacher circles a mistake in each sentence. In Table 6.1, write a suitable correction for each mistake. The first one has been done for you. Table 6.1 student’s sentences correction The speed of light is slower than the speed of radio waves in a vacuum. the same as Ultraviolet rays are used in signals for satellite television and mobile phones. Radio waves are used to scan patients for broken bones. Describe the difference between the vibrations of longitudinal waves and transverse waves.
