2 SECTION A This section carries 40 marks. 1. A walker wears a pedometer. A pedometer is an instrument that measures the distance walked by counting the number of steps taken. The walker measures the distance of one step as 0.8 metres, and enters it into the pedometer. The walker completes 9000 steps during a walk. a) Calculate the distance travelled. [1] b) The walker completes this walk in 80 minutes. [1] The time taken in seconds is c) What is the average speed of the walker? [1] d) Give a reason why the distance measured by the pedometer may not be accurate. [1] e) The diagram shows a distance time graph for a car. (i) Describe the car s motion in the first 6 seconds. [1] (ii) What happened to the car after the 6 th second. [1] (iii) Calculate the velocity of the car in the first 6 seconds. [2] Page 2 of 10

3 2. When white light is directed towards an equilateral prism, it splits up into seven different colours. screen white light glass prism a) Complete the diagram to show the path taken only by the red and violet rays. Mark clearly their position on the screen. [2] b) Name the invisible radiation which forms just above the red light. [1] c) A light ray is directed towards a plane mirror. (i) Draw the reflected ray. [1] (ii) Mark the angle of incidence using the letter i and the angle of reflection using the letter r. [2] (iii) Find the value of the angle of reflection. [1] Angle of reflection= (iv)state one property of an image formed in a plane mirror. [1] Page 3 of 10

4 3. Electromagnetic waves travel at a speed of 300,000,000 m/s. A radio station transmits waves with a wavelength of 20 metres. a) Use the wave equation to calculate the frequency of these waves. [2] b) The diagram shows a list of the members of the electromagnetic spectrum in order of increasing wavelength. Three radiation represented by the letters P, Q and R were left out? Microwaves X rays Visible light are found in position [1] are found in position [1] are found in position [1] c) Different types of radiation are used to detect and treat illnesses and injuries. (i) State one medical use of X-rays. [1] (ii) State one medical use of gamma rays. [1] (iii) What type of radiation is used to treat skin conditions such as acne? [1] Page 4 of 10

5 4. The below figure shows the speed/time graph for a journey travelled by a tractor. a) Use the graph to describe the motion of the tractor during each of the marked sections. [3] OQ QR RS b) State the greatest speed reached by the tractor. [1] Greatest speed = m/s c) For how long was the tractor travelling at constant speed? [1] At constant speed for s d) Find the total distance travelled during the 200 s journey. [2] e) Calculate the average speed of the tractor from O to S [1] Page 5 of 10

6 5. A girl throws a ball.she throws it with a velocity of m/s vertically upwards and the ball reaches a height of 8.0 m above the ground, then it falls straight down to the ground. Ignore air resistance. (a) What is the total distance travelled by the ball? [1] (b) What is the velocity of the ball when at maximum height? [1] (c) What is the acceleration of the ball when at maximum height? [1] (d) Calculate the final velocity of the ball just as it hits the ground. [2] (e) Calculate the time taken by the ball to fall from maximum height to the ground? [2] (f) If air resistance is taken into consideration how would this affect the time taken to reach the ground? [1] Page 6 of 10

7 SECTION B This Section carries 45 marks. 6. (a) The diagram below shows a wave some distance from the beach. The time between one crest and the next crest is 5 seconds. Using information from the diagram, (i) Calculate the wavelength of the wave? [1] (ii) What is the Periodic time of the wave? [1] (iii) Calculate the frequency of the wave? [2] (iv) Calculate the speed of the wave. [2] (v) What happens to the wavelength, amplitude and frequency of the wave as it approaches the beach? [3] Wavelength - Velocity Frequency - - Page 7 of 10

8 6 (b) An object immersed in water appears to be at a different depth. Underline the correct answer: (i) This occurs because of an effect called (Diffraction, Reflection, Refraction). [1] (ii) As the light rays pass from water to air what happens to their speed? [1] (iii) Use values in the diagram to calculate the refractive index of water. [2] (iv) If the same object is immersed in a denser liquid will it appear closer to the surface or deeper from the surface. [2] 7. (a) A single sound is made by hitting a metal plate with a small hammer as shown below. The microphone is connected to a timer. The timer starts when the sound first reaches the microphone and stops when the sound next reaches the microphone. (i) What type of wave is a Sound wave? [1] (ii) Why is this timing method much more accurate than using a stopwatch? [1] Page 8 of 10

9 (iii) Describe the path that the sound travels during this experiment. [3] (iv) What measurements must be taken to calculate the speed of sound? [2] (v) After performing the experiment the timer shows a reading of 0.009s. Use these measurements to calculate the speed of sound. [2] (b) Ultrasonic pulses are emitted from the rear of the car. Objects behind the car reflect the pulses, which are detected by sensors. Ultrasonic pulses travel at the speed of sound. (330m/s) (i) What are ultrasounds? [1] (ii) If the time between these pulses being sent and received is 0.002s. Calculate the distance between the object and the rear of the car. [3] (iii) At a certain distance, the buzzer beeps every s. Calculate the frequency of the beeps. [2] Page 9 of 10

10 8. A student investigates how the magnification of an object changes at different distances from a converging lens. a. Calculate the magnification produced by a lens if an object 2 cm high produced an image 4 cm high? [2] b. A converging lens is used to form an image. The figure shows the position of the lens on the principal axis. The points F and F are the principal foci. (i) Measure the focal length of the converging lens in the diagram below? [2] (ii) Mark clearly on the figure a possible position of an object OA, placed between the principal focus and the lens. [1] (iii) On the figure complete the ray diagram to show how the image of OA is formed. Label the image IY. Show a suitable position of the eye to see the image. [5] (iv) Describe three properties of the image produced? [3] (v) Name one practical device where this setup could be used? [2] Page 10 of 10
