(d)time = s1

(e)(i)h decreased, speed of the ball at the bottom decreased1

time taken increased. 1

The moment of inertia of a hollow ball is larger than that of a solid ball, speed of the ball at the bottom decreased. 1

time taken increased. 1

(iii)

(b)(i)0.015 – 0.035 m1

Induced emf is greatest when the rate of change of B is greatest.1

i.e. greatest slope.1

(ii)same1

Trying to oppose the flux change. (Lenz’s law) 1

(c)(i)T1

(ii)1

(ii)Voltage gain = 1

Peak voltage for a.c. output = V1

(iii)When the CRO is switched to the a.c. mode, a capacitor is built in the CRO, which can replace the function of C2. 1

8.(a)(i)

(b)(i)breaking stress = 1

= 1.98×108 Pa1

(ii)work done = 1

= 0.125 J1

(iii)1

9(a)J1

(b)When yellow light incidents to cathode, photoelectrons are ejected from cathode C towards anode A. 1

When V = 1V, even the most energetic photoelectron cannot reach A. Therefore, the reading does not increase further. 1

(c)Stopping potential is the minimum potential to stop the most energetic electron from reading the anode A. 1

(d)Even the light intensity is increased, the energy of each yellow light photon remains unchanged. 1

The maximum K.E. of photoelectron is also unchanged so that the stopping potential is the same. 1

(e)(i)

(ii)Work function = 1
