The little m alongside kg and s used to represent k was milli right (10^-3), so weird

That would make sense as i had no m in my units but a strange way to ask you to put milli in the units i think

was that the flow of water?

Wasn't it a ratio one? 1.2?

It was T two / T one right? As E=3/2KT

240/290 or something?

Yes
The questions I found were asked in a really weird way so I did not do good at all, I found t very hard

What did anyone put for the M-L^-1 graph question? The one just after the Boyle's law.

M proportional to pressure and L is proportional to volume therefore graph is a straight line through the original.
I thought if the mass increase the volume decreases but since CSA was the same it could only be L decreasing so I drew straight line through origin because I thought M would be proportional to 1/L but really not sure as I panicked

Thats what i did but i was confused about why it was negative (the y axis)

That's good to hear.

I don't suppose a figure of around 0.22 kg/s rings a bell for the flow of water concerning the specific heat capacity question?

how did you guys do the flow of water question?
I calculated energy per 1.6 seconds as E = 130*10^3 * 1.6*10^-19 * 5*10^7
This energy multiplied by 0.9 therefore E*0.9=M*(SHC)*deltaT to work out M.
Then used D=M/V to work out volume
Finally this volume divded by 1.6 to give the volume per second.

I just did it from the Origin because you can't have a negative length but that's why I panicked because I saw it had a negative region but my line didn't go into the negative region
what do you reckon the grade boundaries will be ?

dunno exactly what the questions are in order, or the numbers, but can remember the method probably

1) strontium and alpha nucleus
a) velocity of alpha nucleus
energy and mass given therefore 1/2*m*v^2
b) newtons laws to explain motion of strontium
strontium experiences a force as alpha particle experiences a change in momentum?
Repulsion between the two are equal and opposite, also act on each others bodies?
c) calculate v of strontium
M(initial)*v(initial) = M(final)^v(final)

2) ?

3)

4)

5)Thermal physics
a) work out initial n of baloon
use 4/3*pi*r^3 and PV=nRT using initial T, P
b) work out final pressure of baloon before it pops
use 4/3*pi*r^3 for new V and PV=nRT using final T, initial n, final V
c) ratio question
E=3/2KT therefore ratio is T(final)/T(initial)

Help.. pls
