ANSWER (i) A virtual image is an image that cannot be formed on a screen (ii) - Lens J is thicker than lens K - The focal length of lens K is longer than that of lens J - The size of the image produced by lens J is bigger than that produced by lens , K - When the focal length increases the size of the image decreases - When the power of a lens increases, its focal length decreases 9(b) - Parallel light ray from the hot sun at infinity pass through a convex lens. - light rays are focused after passing through the lens - light rays are converged onto a very small area called the focal point of the lens - at the point, the intensity of light is great and the light energy causes an increase in temperature. When the spot on the paper becomes hot enough, the paper starts to burn. 9(c) (i) - P is used as the objective lens. Q is used as the eyepiece - P and Q are in line. The distance between the two lenses is 45 cm // the length of the telescope is 40 cm + 5 cm. - Parallel rays of starlight from distant stars converge at the focal point of the

9(c)

(ii) - Increase the diameter of the objective lens to let in more light - Increase the focal length of the objective lens or reduce the focal length of the eyepiece Total

NO ANSWER 10(a) Electric current is the rate of charge flow in a circuit 10(b) - The voltage supplied in Diagram 10.1 is less/ smaller than the voltage supplied in Diagram 10.2 - The bulbs in Diagram 10.2 light up brighter than that in Diagram 10.1 - The angle of deflection of the ammeter pointer in Diagram 10.2 is more than that in Diagram 10.1 10(c) (i) The higher the voltage supplied, the higher the current (ii) The higher the current, the brighter the bulb 10(d) - The current in both bulbs are the same as the total current - The effective resistance of the bulbs in the parallel circuit is less than that in the series circuit. - The total current in the parallel circuit is more than that in the series circuit. - Therefore, the two bulbs in Diagram 10.3 light up brighter than the bulbs in series connection as shown in Diagram 10.1 10(e) (i) type of the filament : - the filament should have a high melting point, - so the filament would not melt easily - the resistance of the filament should be high - so the bulb will light up brightly (ii) the glass of the bulb: - the glass should be transparent - so the loss of light intensity is minimum - the specific heat capacity of the glass should be high - so the glass does not easily become hot// the glass be able to withstand the intensity of heat from the filament. (iii) the pressure in the bulb :

NO ANSWER 11(a) Frequency 11(b) - high pitch sound has high frequency and short wavelength - frequency is inversely proportional to wavelength - the sound is not diffracted properly by the corner. Only student C can hear the sound clearly because he is nearest to the audio frequency generator. - a low pitch sound has low frequency and longer wavelength. The sound can be diffracted better by the corner. All the student can hear the sound clearly. 11(c) Characteristics Explanation Larger diameter Receives more signals The distance of the signal receiver This will produce a better reception. from the centre of the parabolic Distant signals which travel in parallel disc is the same as the focal length lines will be reflected and focused onto the receiver. The type of wave transmitted Has high frequency/ high energy/ short should be microwave wavelength, so is easily reflected The height of the parabolic disc The signal is not blocked/ easy to be from the ground should be high detected. K is chosen. Because the diameter of the parabolic disc is large, the distance of the signal receiver from the centre of the parabolic disc is the same as the focal length, it transmit microwave and has high position. 11(d) (i) Speed = distance / time = (2s) / t = (290) / 0.12 = 1500 m s-1 (ii) v = f = 1500 / 50000 = 0.03 m Total ANSWER The potential difference between two points is the work done in moving one coulomb of charge from one point to the other 12(b) (i) When I increases, V increases. R = V/I = gradient of the graph As current, I, increases, gradient increases, resistance, R, increases as temperature increases. (ii) Energy dissipated per second = VI When the current decreases, the energy dissipated decreases 12(c) Characteristics Filament must be made from tungsten wire Explanation Tungsten wire has a higher resistance per unit length / has higher melting point than copper NO 12(a)

6 Thin wire has greater resistance / becomes hot easily The tungsten wire is coiled Coiled wire is more efficient because a very long wire can be fitted into the glass bulb, concentrating heat and producing brighter light. The glass lamp filled with The tungsten wire will not evaporate easily at nitrogen gas at low pressure high temperature R is chosen. Because R use a thin tungsten wire as the filament, is coiled and contains nitrogen gas at low pressure in the bulb. 12(d) (i) P = VI I = 11/ 240 = 0.046 A (ii) heat energy lost per second = 11 10 =1J (iii) Efficiency = = 100% = 90.91 % Total 100% 2 The tungsten wire is thin
