What did you guys get for last question on what happens to the power output when you turn all the switches on?

For that one I just wrote about how if all the switches are closed, then there are more resistors in parallel, so the total resistance of the circuit decreases which means the current increases. P = IV, so increasing current increases the power output.

it was one of the required practicals i think what did you put?

The required practicals were about density and thermal insulator. Not circuits.

For the specific latent heat question I heard loads of people subtracted the two masses they gave to find the difference and then they used that pass in the calculation. Why did we have to find the mass change? I thought we just had to use 0.08kg as the equation only mentions temperature change not change in mass?? 😞😞😞

Because the mass that evaporated was only 0.009kg, not all of the water had evaporated because the change in mass is just telling you the mass of water that evaporated

Did anyone else get 6 for that calculation question about the plane?

I got 6 for one of the questions don't remember which

Why on Earth did they put circuits in???

dk, it was in the topic not assessed section, AQA are scamming us

the RPs was investigating insulation and determining density, circuits was not one of them

I'm not gonna ask or look at answers bc I am buzzing about that exam and I don't wanna ruin that. Ignorance is bliss. I hope it went well for you all

what did everyone put on the becquerels one i wrote about half life and nuclei decay i think i got D was the most unstable and B was the most stable not sure about the others

I think u r on the wrong thread, this is triple

Wait so you were meant to use 0.009kg right?
I got that but it looked like an unrealistic number but I still used it but still sceptical. Or maybe I just did it wrong idk.

I didnt get 10.7 but I got 25 for a 6 marker I think

did anyone get 2,800,000 for the latent heat of vaporisation

Im pretty sure thats what i used, idk why theyd give us both numbers if we didnt have to use them
Except AQA does love to scam us so-
