This paper consists of 17 printed pages. HWA CHONG INSTITUTION JC2 Preliminary Examinations Higher 2 CANDIDATE NAME CT GROUP 24S CENTRE NUMBER INDEX NUMBER PHYSICS Paper 1 Multiple Choice Additional Materials: Optical Mark Sheet 9749/01 23 September 2025 1 hour INSTRUCTIONS TO CANDIDATES Write in soft pencil. Do not use staples, paper clips, glue or correction fluid. Write your name, CT, NRIC or FIN number on the optical mark sheet (OMS). Shade your NRIC or FIN in the spaces provided. There are thirty questions on this paper. Answer all questions. For each question, there are four possible answers A, B, C and D. Choose the one you consider correct and record your choice in soft pencil on the separate OMS. Each correct answer will score one mark. A mark will not be deducted for a wrong answer. Any rough working should be done in this booklet. The use of an approved scientific calculator is expected, where appropriate.
