1 PAPER 2 THEORY QUESTIONS 1 Force is a vector quantity. (a) State which two of the following are also vector quantities. acceleration, distance, mass, speed, velocity... [1] (b) When two forces of 5 N are added, they may produce a resultant force that has any value between 0 and 10 N. (i) Describe how it is possible to produce a zero resultant force from two forces of 5N. (ii) Describe how it is possible to produce a resultant force of 10 N from two forces of 5N. (iii) In the space below, draw a vector diagram to show how a resultant force of about 5N may be obtained from the two 5N forces. Clearly label the forces and the resultant.

4 PAPER 4 PRACTICAL QUESTIONS 1 Fig. 1.1 shows a micrometer screw gauge set to measure the diameter of a steel ball. Fig. 1.1 (a) The micrometer measures to the nearest 1/100 th of a millimeter. Write down the value of 1cm + 1/100 th of millimetre as a decimal, and using unit mm. (b) The upper scale is calibrated in millimetres. 1cm + 1/100 th mm =.. mm [1] The lower scale is marked so that its divisions are half-away between the millimeters on the upper scale. On the sleeve, there are 50 eqully spaced divisions. When the sleeve turns once s indicated on Fig. 1.1, the sleeve moves 0.5mm to the right. Explain how you know that the reading of the gauge in Fig. 1.1 is 7.94mm. [3] (c) Explain how you would find out whether the gauge has a zero error.

5 2 Fig. 2.1 shows a micrometer screw gauge. Fig. 2.1 (a) A student checks that there is no zero error on this micrometer. Explain what is meant by a zero error on a micrometer. [1] (b) The student uses the micrometer to determine the thickness t of a sheet of paper. The student folds the paper in half three times and measures the total thickness of the folded paper. The micrometer is shown in Fig Fig. 2.2 Use Fig. 2.2 to find t. Show your working. t = mm [3] MS / Sh.M / FT 12 / Gr 10/ Physics / Theory questions / General physics 5

(iii) how the volume of the air is calculated... (b) State two possible sources of error in their answer [2] 5 Fig. 5.1 shows a wooden metre rule with small holes drilled through it. Fig. 5.1 The metre rule is suspended from the hole at 5.0 cm so that it can swing freely, as shown in Fig Fig. 5.2 The rule is made to swing from side-to-side and the time T for one complete swing is determined. (a) Describe three experimental techniques used to obtain an accurate value for T [3] MS / Sh.M / FT 12 / Gr 10/ Physics / Theory questions / General physics 8

The results are recorded in the table of below. (i) Describe how T varies with d [2] (ii) Suggest the value of T for d = 95.0 cm. T =... [1] (iii) Suggest why T was not measured for d = 50.0 cm A pendulum hangs from two wooden blocks as shown in Fig A wooden rod is fixed so that it just touches the string of the pendulum when it is hanging vertically. The pendulum bob is pulled to point A and then released. As it swings, the string makes contact with the rod for part of the swing.
