Section A
1(a)
Random errors are errors with different magnitudes and signs in repeated measurements, and
can be reduced by taking the average of many readings.
Systematic errors are errors of measurements that occur according to some 'fixed rule or
pattern' such that they yield a consistent over-estimation or under-estimation of the true value.

Advantages of many sets of readings and drawing graph: (state any 3)
1.
By drawing best fit line, random errors are reduced.
2.
Systematic error can be spotted eg. if the F-e graph does not pass
through origin.
3.
Can spot erroneous points that are out of the trend.
4.
Can check if the proportionality limit is exceeded eg. if the F-e
graph turns into a curve instead of a straight line.

Incident waves travel along the wire to the ends are reflected.
The incident and reflected waves travelling in opposite directions have same frequency
and amplitude. They superimpose to form standing waves.

f = 150 Hz
(b)
(i)
When the support is shifted, the natural frequency of the wire is changed and no longer
matches that of the driving frequency of the periodic force produced by the alternating
current in the wire and magnetic field.
The system no longer resonates and hence its amplitude decreases.
The frequency of the a.c. source must therefore be the natural frequency of the wire
which is 50 Hz.
(ii)
The length l can be reduced to 0.20 m to double the fundamental frequency.
The weights attached to the wire can be increased to increase the speed of the waves to
80 m s-1.

In a system of interacting bodies, the total momentum of the
system remains constant provided no external force acts on the system.

is conserved.

If this potential difference were exceeded, one of the 1000 resistor would most likely
fail. This is because when VXY exceeds 26.4 V , the max safe power for the 1000  would
be exceeded first.

The ion will experience a force that acts perpendicularly to its velocity.
This force will cause the velocity to change its direction but not its speed.
Consequently, the ion moves in a circular path.

Since 14C is more massive than 12C, then from the equation in b(v) 14C would have a larger
diameter in path than 12C. Thus it would hit the photographic plate at two spots.

For 14C , x1 =

For C , x 2 =
0.50 2 x 1.6 x 10 -19
= 0.126 m

Hence, x = 0.136 – 0.126 = 0.010 m

If an electron were to be introduced, it would deflect to the left because electron is negative
charge.
The diameter of its path would also be much smaller since the mass of electron is only
9.11 x 10-31 kg.

If we increase the kinetic energy K of the particle, the above relation tells us that 
would be reduced.
So, the electrons can be accelerated through a larger potential difference to achieve a
greater K, so that  is smaller.
If we use a more massive particle (larger m), then  would also be reduced.
So, instead of electrons, we can accelerate more massive particles like protons to
achieve a shorter .
