Anyone know where I can get past papers for physics OCR (including mark scheme). Ive got my exam tomorrow, so a quick reply would be appreciated :biggrin: Tbh, I just need the mark schemes because Ive got many Past papers, just no answers to check :mad:
Thanks

Hi, i'm doing wave properties too.

One question.

Speed in medium 1
3*10^8ms^-1

Speed in medium 2
1.9*10^8ms^-1

Refractive index for light passing from medium 1 to medium 2 = 1.58?

yes... refractive index = speed in medium leaving/speed in medium entering

1 other quick question.
Why is a large critical angle needed for data transmission?
Suggest why a large critical anglem results in a weak light pulse travelling down the core.

Yes as n = Vi / Vr

1.) for total internal refraction to occur
2.) travels further so loses strength
thanks a lot el stevo.

And it's basically because there is a greater portion of light totally internally reflected

lol Im not doing wave properties, but if I remember correctly, isnt it also to prevent light escaping the actual wire? But back to my original question, any mark schemes :biggrin:
Good luck to all tomorrow!

check your pm's... or pm me with the ones you want... i have access to some but you wouldn't have access to them if i simply gave you the link..

Module 4? Me...


is that forces fields and energy?

I'm doing module 5- health physics (thats the option my college chose)

Good Luck!

I wanted to do nuclear or telecommnications but they chose health because its supposed to be the least demanding :rolleyes: still quite interesting though :smile:
Yo chats, el stevo.
What marks did you get for wave properties physics and p1 maths?
Reply 16
p1 maths - 100%
wave properties physics - 72% - messed up the practical...

we got the choice of either cosmo or nuclear... i went nuclear...
