A triangle has sides A, B and C. The side BC has length 20cm, the angle ABC is 50 deg and angle BAC is 68 deg. a) Show that the length of AC is 16.5cm, correct to three significant figures. b) The midpoint of BC is M, hence find the length of AM

a) The answer to this question is quite simple, it is all dependent on the pupil realising that they need to use the sine rule. This rule for this triangle is: BC/sin(BAC) = AC/sin(ABC) Once they get this...

A DVD is dropped from rest. The DVD does not reach terminal velocity before it hits the ground. Explain how the acceleration of the DVD varies from the instant it is dropped until just before it hits the ground.

In the instant when the DVD is dropped, it will have an acceleration of g, with no drag force acting on it as it is not moving. As the DVD accelerates downwards, the drag force acting on it increases and ...

A kettle is found to output 65J when its input energy is 100J. What is the efficiency of the kettle, and what happens to the rest of the energy?

Efficiency=useful energy /input energy x 100, so for the kettle, efficiency = 65/100 x 100 = 65% efficient. The rest of the energy is wasted as heat energy in the kettle/sound energy.
