Q4c The gravitational force on Helen (her weight) remains the
same but Helen experiences apparent weightlessness, i.e. she
feels weightless because there is no reaction force on her while
she is in free fall (falling under gravity only).
Q5a Take upward as the positive direction.

Q18c Ploss = I R = 2.5 × 5.0 ≈ 31 W
Q18d AC is often used so that transformers can be employed to
step up the voltage for transmission and thus lower the current in
the transmission cables. Hence power loss due to heating
Ploss = I 2 R is reduced. Then the voltage is stepped down to the
correct values for household/commercial usage.

V peak −to − peak = 2 × 30.052 ≈ 60.10 V

→ shorter wavelength → diffraction to a lesser extent, i.e.
smaller ring radii.
Q23c X-rays are electromagnetic waves, and electrons have
wave behaviours. .: diffraction can occur for both. If their
wavelengths are equal, they will produce a pattern with similar

Area of study − Interactions of light and matter
Q19 Young’s double-slit experiment produced an interference
pattern of alternating bright and dark bands of light from two
very close parallel slits, instead of just two bright patches of
light as suggested by the particle model. Interference pattern is a
wave phenomenon and can be easily demonstrated using water
waves from two dippers generating coherent circular waves at
the surface of water. .: Young’s experiment supports the wave
model.
Q20 Observation 2: Einstein used Planck’s photon (particle)
model to explain the photoelectric effect in his equation
KE max = hf − W , where f is the frequency of the light and W the
work function for the metal. Intensity of the incident light does
not appear in the equation. Clearly the energy of emitted
electrons depends on the frequency of the light and is
independent of its intensity. Only light, with frequency higher
than certain value depending on the metal (called the threshold
frequency), can cause the emission of photoelectrons.
