The apparent depth increases as real depth increases
The transmitter is placed at the focal point of the dish.

The parabolic dish is focuse to the radio satellite
The radio waves is reflected back to Earth to a receiving dish
The parabolic dish focuses the radio waves onto the receiver which is
placed at the focal point

Aspect
Reason
Concave mirror
magnified image
Large surface area
Increases field of view
Large radius of curvature
Bigger image
Longer focal length
Bigger image
Less than focal point
Bigger image and upright

(ii)
Total internal reflection

Objective lens: to produce a real, inverted and magnified image
Eyepiece: to produce a virtual, upright and magnified image // a
magnifying glass
(iii) can carry large amount of data/information // transmit signals

with very little loss
of energy // very much thinner and lighter // can be bent around
corners
(b) (c)
Object distance: Diagram 9.2 < 9.3

Image distance: Diagram 9.2 > 9.3

Reason
High power
Longer focal length of

eyepiece lens
Object between F and 2F
To magnified the image
Bigger than objective lens

More than fo + fe
Dry condition
To produce a real, inverted

and magnified image

(a)
(b)
Unstable nucleus become more stable nucleus

(i) Negative
(ii) In Diagram A, the EHT is of lower voltage. The deflection is
less.
In Diagram B, the EHT is of higher voltage. The deflection is
greater.
(c)
(i)
(d)
(i) Nuclear fission

(ii) - Mass defect during the reaction.
- The mass defect is converted to energy.
- The energy produced, E, is given by E = mc2 where m =
mass defect, c = velocity of light in a vacuum.
When the voltage is higher, the strength of the electric field is

greater.
(ii) When the strength of the electric field is greater, the deflection
of the radioactive emission is greater.
Aspect
Use tongs/distance controller.
Wear a mask
Wear a film badge
Wear a radiation proof coat
Use a lead box/container with
thick concrete
Put a radioactive symbol on
the storage box
Keep the exposure time as
short as possible
Reason
so that the distance between
the source and the body is far
the radiation does not
penetrate our eyes
to detect the amount of
radiation exposed
the radiation does not
penetrate the body
to prevent radiation leakage to
the surroundings
to inform users of the
dangerous contents of the box
the body is not exposed to the
radiation for a long time
4.
(a) Doping is a process of adding a certain amount of specific impurities

to semiconductors to increase their conductivity
(b) - Diagram 2.1, the p end of diode is connected to negative terminal
of dry cell // Diagram 2.2 the p end of diode is connected to
positive terminal of dry cell
- Bulb in Diagram 2.1 does not lights up
- No current flow in Diagram 2.1 // Current flow in Diagram 2.2
- The bulb will lights up when the p end of diode is connected to the
positive terminal of dry cell // vice versa
- Current only flow in the circuit when p end of diode is connected
to positive terminal of dry cell or in forward bias
(c) (i)
(ii)
- Capasitors store charge when current flow

- Capasitor discharge when current does not flow
(d)
Aspect
Reason
LDR is replace by termistor resistance decrease when

/ diagram
temperature increase
Termistor is place at R1
and R1 replace LDR /
diagram
So that V across R1 increase when

the room is hot
Relay switch replace LED
To switch on secondary circuit /to

switch on the fan
Fans are arranged parallel
All fans received 240 V power

supply / other fans still functioning
even though one fan did not function
Resistor connected to the

base of transistor
limit the current to the transistor
5.
(a) Speed is the distance per unit time

(b)
(c)
Speed limit is imposed because:

Momentum depends on mass and velocity. The momentum of a
vehicle is high when it travels in high velocity. A high
momentum will cause a high impulsive force during a collision
Load limit is imposed because:
Inertia depends on mass. The inertia of a vehicle is high when it
carries more load. It is difficult to stop a moving vehicle which is
carrying a big load
Aspect
ABS is more effective than air
brake

(ii) F = ma
F = 2 410 1.134
F = 2 733.56 N
Reason
lorry can be stopped
immediately without skidding
provides better support
5 small tanks will have smaller
inertia compare with 1 big tank reduces the inertial impact on
each tank if the tanker stop
suddenly
to prevent collision between the
trailer and the tractor
ABS, More tyres, 5 small tanks,
further distance

(a) Produce of induce current by cutting of the magnetic fluxs.

(b) (i)
(ii)
A current is induced in the secondary coil when there is a

changing magnetic flux due to a changing primary a.c current.
-
(c)
When a.c voltage applied to the primary coil, an a.c

current flows through the coil, the soft iron core is
magnetized
This means the magnetic flux linkage in the secondary
coil is constantly changing
An alternating emf induced across it to induced a.c
voltage in the secondary coil and aa.c
.c current flows
through the secondary coil.
Aspect
Soft iron
Resistance per metre must be
low
Ratio of Ns/Np must be the
same as Vs/Vp
The core structure must be
laminated, hence must be made
of many layers.
Transformer N is most suitable
Reason
Can be magnetised and
demagnetised easily.
so that less heat is lost/less power
loss.
So that resistance of the core is

increased and eddy currents are
reduced.
As it has a soft iron core, wire of
lowest resistance per metre, has ratio
and the core is made
up of a large number of layers.
