(Qn 14 Credit Physics 2010) i) about 6 000 days ii) s = 89 684 days c) Answers to this question may include comments about: The light that we see from stars is very old and is travelling to us from a time in the past, perhaps some stars are now dead or light from younger stars has not reached us yet. The universe is expanding and the stars are getting further away from us so it might be taking light even longer to reach us. 77. (Qn 13 Credit Physics 2010) a) force per unit mass b) i) 81. (Qn 22 Int 2 Physics 2008) ii) Venus c) i) ii) 1.2 s d) i) Rises up slowing down due to the hammers weight, it reaches a maximu height higher than it would on earth and then falls back to the astronaut with a vertical acceleration of 1.6 ms-2 82. (Qn 24 Int 2 Physics 2009) (a) Energy is released as the inter molecular bonds are formed as the water changes state ii) 0.007 ms-1 (c) 78. (Qn 14 Credit Physics 2011) (i) 3.34 x 104 / 125 = 267 s (ii) Energy is also being removed from the surrounding so more energy is being Cadmium and Mercury Last updated by AD 16th May 2013 - 36 - removed than was accounted for in the calculation. (d) Energy to melt the ice is drawn from the surrounding liquid reducing the energy the drink is storing (iii) , 83. (Qn 21 Int 2 Physics 2011) (iii) This is not possible. To remain above Moscow the distance travelled in a 24 hour period is so small in comparison to the distance travelled at the equator that the satellite travels so slowly that it falls to the ground before completing its orbit. (e) answer to (a) to (c) increases as time to fall increases due to reduced gravitational field strength, answer to (d) remains the same as height is not affected by a change in gravitational field strength (f) Factors such as lack of air resistance, initial velocity of the ball (speed and angle) and acceleration due to gravity. 84. (Qn 23 Int 2 Physics 2011) (c) Both are reduced since the mass is reduced. 85. (Qn 21 Int 2 Physics 2012) Last updated by AD 16th May 2013 - 37 -
