Figure 1
A ball is released on an inclinedplane, Figure l, and the distance travelled is measured at interryals as it
rolls down the slope. A distance against time graph is drawn at Figure 2 on page 5.
[3 marks]
(b) Use data from the graph to find the acceleration of the ball.
[3 marks]
(c) Why is the gradient of the graph greater immediately before 1.2 s than immediately after
1.2 s?
[3 marks]
(d) If further timings and displacements were taken after 1.8 s, would you expect the displacement
to become zero again? Explain your answer.

2. A tube with a variable length is closed at one end. A series of tuning forks is used to create
resonance at the fundamental frequency for various lengths of the tube. The results obtained are
shown in Table 1.

SECTION B
You must attempt THREE questions from this section. Choose ONE question EACH from
Module lr2 and 3. You MUST write your answers in the answer booklet provided.
MODULE 1
(b) Explain what is meant by a 'geostationary satellite'. Show that the radius of the orbit of
a geostationary satellite is independent of its mass. [4 marks]
(c) A small mass of 0.60 kg is rotated at the end of a string in a horizontal circle of radius
1.20 m. The string will break if the tension exceeds 60 N. What is the GREATEST
frequency of rdvolution that is possible? [5 marks]
(d) The same mass of 0.60 kg is now rotated at the end of another string at a constant speed, v, in
a vertical circle of radius I .20 m. The minimum tension in the string is 2. I N.
(i) State and explain where the tension in the string is MAXIMUM and MINIMUM.

5. (a) (i) Define 'linear momentum' and state the principle of conservation of linear
momentum.
(iii) Explain the meaning of the 'impulse of a force' and show the relation between
the impulse of a force in a body and the momentum of the body. [8 marks]
O) Two trolleys are used to investigate collisions. A trolley of mass 1.60 kg is pushed and hits a
second trolley, of mass 0.80 kg, which is moving in the same direction, but at a lower
speed. The experiment is repeated and the results are shown below.

2'd Collision
(i) Show whether or not the two sets of data are consistent with the law of conservation
of momentum.
(iii) Why should the speeds be measured IMMEDIATELY before and after the
collisions?
(iv) The 1.60 kg trolley collided with another of the siune mass, moving with the same
speed, in the opposite direction.

(ii) Draw sketches to show the refraction of sound waves as the waves travel from
cool air to warmer air and from warm air to cooler air.
(iii) Hence explain why sound waves are more audible at night than in the day.
[8 marks]
(b) Figure 4 shows a tuning fork with a frequency of 44O Hz, held just above the top of a
uniform tube containing water. The tube can excite the column of air above the water,
whose level can be changed by a tap at the bottom of the tube. As the water is drained
out, the sound intensity of the fork is enhanced when the air column has a length of 0.6 m
and again when the air column has a height of lm.
Using these data, calculate a value for the speed of sound in air-

(c) Figure 5 shows two loudspeakers S, and S, separated by 0.50 m. These speakers are
connected to the output of an amplifier and they form sound waves with the same amplitude
at a frequency of precisely 44|Ji|: Hz. The amplifier emits two waves 180o out of phase. A
set of chairs is arranged in a semicircle 30.0 m from the speakers.
Figure 5
(i) Calculate the amplitude of the wave at the chair on the perpendicular bisector
(centre line) of the line between the speakers.
(ii) At what MINIMUM distance, D, ro the right of this central chair is there a
MAXIMUM in the sound intensity? [g marks]

7. (a) (i) Define 'simple harmonic motion' (S.H.M.) and write down an expression relating
acceleration to displacement in S.H.M.
(ii) Show that the time period of oscillation, T, of a simple pendulum of length / and
mass m is given by T = r" l+ where g is the acceleration due to gravity.
{" [g marks]
(b) A simple pendulum has a length of 2.0 m and a mass of 0.5 kg. It is hanging from the-
roof of a car that is travelling at 5 m s-r and banking a corner of radius 15 m.
(ii) Ifthe car is now at rest, and the pendulum undergoes S.H.M, would its time
period be shorter or longer than that calculated in 7 (b) (i)? Explain your answer.
