Grade 12 Physical Science Final Exams : Physics Paper 1

Question 3) CALCULATE AND SKETCH GRAPH

Section: Mechanics (Motion in One Dimension) 🚀

Key Concepts:

1. Equations of motion 📝
2. Free fall 💥
3. Velocity-time graphs ⚡️
4. Position-time graphs 📈

Key Formulas:

1. Equation of motion: s = ut + (1/2)at² 🤔
2. Velocity: v = u + at 🔄
3. Acceleration due to gravity: g = 9.8 m/s² ⬇️
+---------------+
| Building |
| Ball A (↑) |
| Ball B (↓) |
+---------------+
| Ground |
+---------------+
```

3.1.1) Calculate t (time taken for balls to strike the ground)

Ball A: t = 2 + 2(12/9.8) = 4.44 s
Ball B: t = √(2h/9.8) = 4.44 s

3.1.2) Calculate Z (height of building)

Ball A: h = ut + (1/2)at²
h = 12(1.22) + (1/2)(-9.8)(1.22)² = 20 m
Z = 20 m

3.1.3) Calculate Y (distance Ball B travels)

Y = Z = 20 m

3.2) Velocity-time Graphs for Ball A and Ball B

Key Points:
1. Initial velocity of Ball A: 12 m/s ↑
2. Initial velocity of Ball B: -5.4 m/s ↓
3. Time at which Ball A is thrown: 0 s
4. Time at which Ball B is thrown: 2 s
5. Time at which both balls strike the ground: 4.44 s

➡️: Plot Initial Velocities

- Ball A: Plot point (0, 12) on the velocity-time graph.
- Ball B: Plot point (2, -5.4) on the velocity-time graph.

➡️: Determine Acceleration

- Both balls accelerate due to gravity: -9.8 m/s²

➡️: Plot Velocity at Time of Flight

- Ball A:
- At 1.22 s, velocity = 0 m/s (maximum height)
- Plot point (1.22, 0)
- At 4.44 s, velocity = -9.8 m/s (strikes ground)
- Plot point (4.44, -9.8)
- Ball B:
- At 4.44 s, velocity = -9.8 m/s (strikes ground)
- Plot point (4.44, -9.8)

➡️: Draw Velocity-time Graphs

- Ball A: Connect points (0, 12), (1.22, 0), and (4.44, -9.8) with a straight line.
- Ball B: Connect points (2, -5.4) and (4.44, -9.8) with a straight line.

Question 2) DEFINE, DRAW, CALCULATE AND GIVE REASON FOR ANSWER

2.1) Static Friction
Imagine pushing or pulling a heavy door. At first, it doesn't move. That's static friction! It's the force opposing motion when an object is stationary.

Example: Pushing a stuck door
You push gently, but it doesn't budge. The force of static friction equals your push. When you push harder, the door starts moving, overcoming static friction.

2.2) Free Body Diagram :
+---------------+
| Crate (8.5 kg) |
+---------------+
|
| T (Tension) -->
|
| Fs (Static Friction)

EXAMS ARE OVER! 🎉

Remember that nerve-wracking feeling when the exam paper was put in front of you? Your heart racing, palms sweating, and your mind going blank! 😅

Let's relive the moment and tackle Question 1.1 together.

Question 1.1:

Several forces are acting on a moving object. Which one of the following statements is correct when the forces are in equilibrium?

A) The velocity of the object is increasing.
B) The object is moving at a constant velocity.
C) The kinetic energy of the object is decreasing.
D) The object has a non-zero acceleration.

Step 1: Read Carefully 📖
Understand the question: Forces in equilibrium.

Step 2: Recall Physics Basics💡
Forces in equilibrium = net force = 0, Newton's 1st Law (Law of Inertia).

Now, let's analyze each option:

A) Incorrect! Increasing velocity implies acceleration, which requires a net force.

B) Correct! Forces in equilibrium mean no net force acts on the object, so its velocity remains constant. Imagine cruising at 60 km/h on a straight road - forces are balanced, velocity stays constant! 🚗

C) Incorrect! Constant velocity means constant kinetic energy.

D) Incorrect! Forces in equilibrium mean zero net force, hence zero acceleration.
