AS Physics (Edexcel; 2008) Unit 1 Experiments

Hey guys,

I was just wondering this: What are all the AS Physics experiments do we have to remember for the Unit 1 paper?

Could someone list them, and then give a detailed answer for each one?

I need the main points in the reply that will score me each point in the examination question. These questions usually come as 5/6 mark questions.

+Reps might be given out :yep:

Thank you.

Hi guys!

Could you help me with this question? I need the explanation.

A train consists of a powered engine pulling two unpowered carriages.

The engine has a mass of 20000kg, and each carriage has a mass of 5000kg. When the engine
accelerates from rest it develops a thrust (driving force) of 15000N.
Ignoring resistive forces, what is the tension (pulling force) T in the coupling between carriage 1 and
carriage 2?

A 2500N
B 3750N
C 5000N
D 7500N
E 15000N
