Since Centripetal Force = r mv 2 , an increase in the centripetal force would allow the rider to turn the corner at a higher speed without slipping, provide the mass of cyclist and bicycle and radius of turn remain constant.

This is because the energy supplied by driver is equal to energy lost due to dissipative forces. M1 A1 6 (a) When a p.d. of 240 V is applied across it, then the power dissipated by the lamp is 100 W. B1 (b) Resistance of lamp 2 2240 576100 VR P= = = Current flowing through the filament , I = 280 0.486576 V R == A In one second, quantity of charge flowing through it, Q = 0.500 C 18 -19 0.486= = =3.04×101.6×10 nQ te s-1 C1 A1 (c) The temperature (or internal energy) of the filament rises with work done by the electrons on the filament. This causes more vigorous lattice vibration of the atoms resulting in greater collision frequency between electrons and atoms, causing the resistance to rise. To include explanation that just involve collisions of electrons wi th lattice ions. B1 B1 7 (a) 𝐴 = 𝐴0𝑒−𝜆𝑡 3.7 × 1011 = 𝐴0 𝑒−ln 2 5.2 (2.5) 𝐴0 = 5.16 × 1011 M1 A1

B1 comparison using numbers. E.g. internal resistance is 3 orders of magnitude smaller than resistance in circuit. Or, take internal resistance to be maximum at 10 Ω, fraction ≈ 10 1645+640 = 0.004. internal resistance is small compared to resistance in circuit (1 mark maximum) B1 9 (a) (i) The electric field strength at a point is defined as the electric force per unit positive charge placed at that point: B1 (ii) Electron gains speed as it moves from point A of 200V to 300V. Its speed remains approximately constant when it is between the region of 300V. Its speed decreases (to the same initial speed) as it moves from 300V to point B B2 for all 3 (iii) Loss in kinetic energy = gain in electric potential energy = q (VC – VA) = (–1.60 x 10-19) (0 – 200) = 3.20 x 10-17 J To deduct one mark if answer does not reflect negative value which represents the loss in KE.

A shorter arrow acts towards the Earth B1 (iii) The centripetal force acting on the SOHO depends on both the gravitational forces due to the Sun and the Earth. Hence, the expression in (i) does not apply to the angular velocity for SOHO. Due to the gravitational force acting on SOHO by the Earth, the net centripetal force acting on SOHO is lower. This will result in a lower angular velocity for SOHO that can be comparable to that of the Earth at a further distance from the Sun.
