Re: OCR Physics A - G484: The Newtonian World - June 12I'm aiming for an A but I only need a B to get into uni. How did you find unit 5?(Original post by Shahman123)
Seems legit, looks like they have some notes for each part of the spec.. thanks!
and haha I'm they won't mind!
I have a whole week until unit 4 so figured I don't want to leave it as last minute as I did today for unit 5!
And ah my school doesn't do unit 4 for us during January, what are you aiming for? -
Re: OCR Physics A - G484: The Newtonian World - June 12I'm aiming for a B because that's all I need haha! And it was better than I thought it would go to be honest, I hadn't really prepared myself for it so I was expected a fail but a few of my friends taught me pretty much the whole of medical physics and the universe before the exam, so I got pretty lucky when that MRI question came up! But I know there's a chance I've only gotten a C so my plan is to smash Unit 4!(Original post by Mr Maths)

How did you find unit 5? -
Re: OCR Physics A - G484: The Newtonian World - June 12I found unit 5 alright. I revised MRI, nuclear reactor and the universe and it all came up so I was happy. Definitely made some mistakes on the calculations but I'm hoping for an A(Original post by Shahman123)

I got a C on unit 4 too, and I haven't looked at it since January haha, I really need to start! -
Re: OCR Physics A - G484: The Newtonian World - 18/06/12There were no circular motion questions in the previous paper so I think that will definitely come up.(Original post by Fladumir)
Any predictions as to what might come up? -
Re: OCR Physics A - G484: The Newtonian World - 18/06/12Working out specific heat capacity(Original post by stunnaman)
Are there any experiments to learn for this unit?
Brownian motion experiment
a experiment about period and angle of oscillation of a pendulum came up in June 11 paper 5 marks -
Re: OCR Physics A - G484: The Newtonian World - 18/06/12G - just selecting and using that equation. You won't need to derive it, although it's from plugging g-F/m into F=GMm/r². Use it when You know the mass of the larger object, the distance between the two.(Original post by Vortex_007)
How can u make notes on spec point 4.2.2 : g,h,i
can someone please help me
H - When an object is falling to the Earth's surface, it will fall with an acceleration of a = F/m, and since F due to gravity = gm, substitute that in for F and a = gm/m, cancel the m's and you're left with g.
I - you just need to realise that the force due to gravity = centripetal force, therefore GMm/r² = mv²/r. You can combine these equations a million different ways, and you sometimes need to realise that v = 2π/T and substitute it in sometimes. This is also the equation you derive Kepler's Third Law from. (T²/r³ = 4π²/GM)
On a side note, I'm bricking it for this exam after G485 :/ got a C in January and need an A overall.
Can they ask us to explain why T is independent of displacement in SHM? -
LOL are the ones by Robbie Peck in the first post not good enough?(Original post by Vortex_007)
Has anyone got good notes for this module

Re: OCR Physics A - G484: The Newtonian World - 18/06/12I think i am, i just need to make sure i gain marks from the written questions. Calculations are not usually a problem.(Original post by Vortex_007)
Thank u for the notes. Are u ready for the exam
When i did the paper in jan, i got all the calculations correct apart from one but i lost many marks from the written questions.
I got 72/90 in jan but i'm aiming for A* this time round. -
Wow those look really good and similar to the medical imaging ones from G485 you didn't happen to do those by any chance did you?(Original post by Jukeboxing)
Here are some notes that i've made that cover a few parts of the spec that i'm not too good with.
