Answer
Refraction
Ratio of sin i / sin r // The ratio of speed of light in vacuum
relative to that speed through a medium
Refractive index of the glass is higher.
The density of glass is higher
The angle of refraction of light ray in glass is shorter
The higher the density of medium, the smaller the angle of
refraction of light.
The higher the density of medium, the higher the refractive
index.

Note
A wave in which the vibration of particles in the medium is
parallel to the direction of propagation of the wave
The amplitude in Diagram 10.2 is higher
The peak value, a2 in Diagram 10.2 is higher
The higher the amplitude of vibration of tuning forks, the higher
the peak value
The higher the peak value, the louder the sound
The higher the amplitude, the louder the sound
- Use ultrasound
Max 4 marks
- Ultrasound is transmitted to the sea bed
- a receiver will then detect the reflected the reflected pulses

Suggestions
Loudspeakers are
positioned at quite a

The two main
loudspeakers are not
positioned opposite to
each other
Fix soft boards/
wooden/ materials
which are sound
absorbers
Use thick carpet/
Wooden floor/ Rubber
floor
Assemble a high power
speaker system
Assemble the speaker at

a high place
Reason
So that the distance between
consecutive constructive /
destructive interference is
smaller.
To prevent multiple
reflections
Reflection effects can be

reduced
To prevent echo
To produce a high amplitude

of sound wave
Wide coverage // the wave is

not blocked

volume of the air displaced
Use 2 burners // Many
To produce bigger flame //
burners
heat up the gas in the
balloon faster
Synthetic nylon
Light-weight/ strong /airproof material
High temperature of the air Reduce the density /weight
in the balloon
of the air in the balloon
Hot air balloon Q is chosen Large balloon, use 2
burners / many burners,
use synthetic nylon and
has high temperature of the
air in the balloon.
Mass = density x volume
Mass = 0.169 kg m-3 x 1.2 m3 = 0.20 kg

Calculate mass of displaced air correctly
m = 1.3 kg m-3 x 1.2 m3 =1.56kg
Calculate weight of displaced air correctly and state that
bouyant force equal to weight of displaced air
Weight of displaced air = bouyant force

Answer
A fuse is a very thin wire, which either melts or vaporizes when
too much current flows through it
- A parallel circuit can run several devices using the full voltage
of the supply.
- If one device fails, the others will continue running normally
- If the device shorts, the other devices will receive no voltage,
preventing overload damage.
- A failure of one component does not lead to the failure of the
other components.
- More components may be added in parallel without the need
for more voltage.
- Each electrical appliance in the circuit has it own switch.
- The electrical appliance use 240 V of voltage to generates 500
W of power.
Current = Power/Voltage
Current = 500/240 = 2.08 A
Efficiency = Output Power x 100 %
Input Power
Output Power = 85 x 500
100
Output power = 425 W
(d)
Characteristics
Thin fuse wire
Explanation
Less space needed/ to carry a
limited electrical current/ less
mass hence low heat
capacity/ shorter time to heat
up to melting point and blow.
Ceramic cartridge
Can withstand higher

temperature because sparks
created by high voltage,
240V can be huge/
Fuse rating is 13 A
Low melting point
R is chosen because
Maximum rating must be

higher than normal current.
For fast blow/ Melting faster
when excessive current
flow/ Easy to cut the current
flow.
Because it has thin fuse wire,
ceramic cartridge, fuse rating
is 13 A and low melting
point.
