Ms Form 2 End Term Physics 1

1. The student solved a physics problem involving measurements and unit conversions to calculate the density of mercury as 6.5 x 107 mg or 6.5 x 10^7 kg/m3. 2. Water wets glass due to strong adhesive forces between water and glass, while mercury does not wet glass due to weaker adhesive forces between mercury and glass. 3. The student correctly solved a physics problem involving forces, pressures, and densities to calculate the density of a liquid as 750 kg/m3.

water is a poor conductor of heat

23. Speed = 2d t = 500 = 2.5s


t 20
Speed = 2 x 400 = 320m/s
2.5
24. a) Flow rate = cross-section area * speed

= 1.6*10-4*1.2 ms-1

=1.92*10-4 m3s-1

b) The flow rate is constant

Volume efflux (Volume of water coming out) =v*2.0*10-2*10-4*40

= 8*10-5 v m3s-1

Volume influx = Volume efflux

8*10-5v =1.92*10-4

V = 2.4 ms-1
