(a) (i) Write an outline plan for his investigation.
For
Teacher's
Use
He can push the wooden blocks with different area on the modeling clay
and with a ruler measure the height of the dent which tells how area affects pressure.
Then he could add the different masses on top of one wooden block
and measure the height of the dent with the ruler. By doing this he can see how force
affects pressure.
[2]
(ii) What measurements does he need to take?
The mass of the of the masses,the area of the wooden locks in contact with the
modeling clay and the height of the dent.
[1]
(iii) Azim repeats all of his measurements. Why does he do this?
To make sure his results are reliable and to get an average(mean)
[1]
(b) Draw a results table for Azim’s investigation.
Area of wooden block/cm2
Height of dent /cm
mass of masses/g
height of dent/cm

(iii) What conclusion can you make from his results?
Plants photosynthesize the most in blue light and the least in green light[1]
(iv) Use your knowledge about the colour of leaves to explain his results.
Leaves are green colour so they reflect the colour green and absorb other
colours.

This is a piece of laundry equipment for taking creases out of clothes.
For
Teacher's
Use
container of water
heating element
hot metal plate
(a) The metal plate is heated using the heating element.
The heating element touches the metal plate.
(i) How is the thermal (heat) energy transferred to the metal plate?
Underline the answer from the list of words.
condensation
conduction
convection
evaporation
radiation
[1]
(ii) Explain how the particles in the element transfer this thermal (heat)
energy to the metal plate.
The particles gain heat energy and vibrate faster, they transfer the energy to the
neighboring particles and they vibrate more transferring it to the next.
[1]
(b) The water in the bottom of the container becomes warm.
This happens because of a thermal (heat) transfer process.
Name this process.
