Since the speed of the body is constant, the resultant force acts perpendicular to its velocity and thus, direction of motion, which is towards the centre of the circle. [1] [1] 4(b)(i) The net force towards centre of the circle provides the centripetal force required to move in a circular path. 2 2 cos cos , as . mvT mg r mvT mg r L L −= = + = [1] for statement and equation [1] for r = L 4(b)(ii) The point where the force in the rod changes from tension to compression is when T = 0 N.

4 2024/JPJC/Prelim/9749/02 4(b)(iii) [1] graph is cosine and cuts at about 120° [1] correct values 4(b)(iv) The K.E. of the mass is constant but its G.P.E. is constantly changing. So as the mass is moving upwards, an external device is needed to supply energy to increase its G.P.E. As the mass moves downwards, its G.P.E. is decreasing and the external device must absorb the lost in G.P.E. [1] energy supply [1] energy absorb 5(a)(i) A longitudinal wave is one where the oscillations of the wave particles is parallel to the direction of the wave propagation / energy transfer. [1] 5(a)(ii) Sound waves are longitudinal . Since there is no component of a sound wave's oscillation that is perpendicular to its direction of motion, sound waves cannot be polarised. [1] [1] 5(b)(i) Sound waves from the speaker travel leftward through the tube and gets reflected by the piston rightwards. The incident sound waves from the speaker superpose with the reflected sound waves by the piston to form stationary waves. [1] [1] 5(b)(ii)1.

5 2024/JPJC/Prelim/9749/02 [Turn over This can only occurs when L is odd number multiples of quarter wavelength or ( )odd number . 4L = 6(a) At V = 12 V, I = 2.5 A 0.208V=I At V = 6 V, I = 1.25 A 0.208V=I At V = 9.6 V, I = 2.0 A 0.208V=I Since ratio of I to V is constant, I is proportional to V. [1] show at least 2 values of ratio of V or V . [1] conclusion 6(b)(i) Resistance of resistor X = 12 2.5 = 4.8 [1] answer 6(b)(ii)1. Current in wire AB = 9.0 4.0 5.0+ = 1.0 A [1] answer 6(b)(ii)2. Current in resistor X = 9.0 4.8 2.7+ = 1.2 A [1] answer 6(b)(iii) Resistance of wire AC = 0.70 4.01.0 = 2.8 Potential difference across AC = 2.8 9.04.0 5.0 + = 2.8 V Potential difference across AD = 4.8 9.04.8 2.7 + = 5.76 V Potential difference between C and D = 5.76 − 2.8 = 2.96 V = 3.0 V [1] value of VAC [1] value of VAD [1] answer 6(b)(iv) With internal resistance, the potential difference across the power supply would be less than 9.0 V. The potential difference across AC and AD would also be less, and hence the answer in (iii) would be less.
