Question 3

Seorang tukang roti menarik nafas dalam-dalam sebelum meniup lilin pada sebiji kek. Apakah yang berlaku di dalam badannya semasa menyedut udara?A baker takes a deep breath before blowing out the candles on a cake. What happens in her body during inhalation?
Show answerHide answer
A
During inhalation the intercostal muscles contract, the rib cage moves up and out and the diaphragm contracts and moves down. The volume of the thoracic cavity increases, so the air pressure falls below that of the outside air and air rushes in.

Question 4

Seorang tukang masak membakar satay menggunakan arang di dalam dapur kecil yang tertutup. Selepas beberapa lama, dia berasa pening dan letih. Pernyataan manakah menerangkan keadaannya dengan paling tepat?A cook grills satay over charcoal in a small closed kitchen. After some time she feels dizzy and tired. Which statement best explains her condition?
Show answerHide answer
D
Burning charcoal in poor ventilation releases carbon monoxide. It combines with haemoglobin to form stable carboxyhaemoglobin, so less oxyhaemoglobin is formed and the cells do not get enough oxygen. A is a cigarette-smoke effect, and B and C describe reactions that do not happen.

Question 11

Rajah 1 menunjukkan suhu campuran apabila tiga spatula ammonium nitrat dilarutkan dalam air di dalam sebuah cawan polistirena. Pernyataan manakah betul?Diagram 1 shows the temperature of the mixture when three spatulas of ammonium nitrate are dissolved in water in a polystyrene cup. Which statement is correct?
Line graph of temperature (degrees Celsius) against time (minutes): 29 at 0, 24 at 1, 20 at 2, then 18 at 3, 4 and 5 minutes
Rajah 1Diagram 1
Show answerHide answer
C
The temperature falls from 29 °C to a minimum of 18 °C, a drop of 29 − 18 = 11 °C. Heat is absorbed from the water, so the reaction is endothermic. 18 °C is the final temperature, not the drop.

Question 12

Antara berikut, baris manakah menunjukkan warna wayar yang betul bagi palam 3 pin sebuah cerek elektrik?Which row shows the correct colours of the wires in the 3-pin plug of an electric kettle?
Show answerHide answer
D
The international colour code is live = brown, neutral = blue and earth = green and yellow stripes (textbook Figure 6.32).

Question 13

Sebuah transformer di dalam bengkel menurunkan voltan 240 V kepada 15 V. Gegelung primer mempunyai 800 lilitan. Berapakah bilangan lilitan gegelung sekunder?A transformer in a workshop changes 240 V to 15 V. The primary coil has 800 turns. How many turns does the secondary coil have?
Show answerHide answer
B
Vp/Vs = Np/Ns, so Ns = Np × Vs / Vp = 800 × 15 / 240 = 50 turns (a step-down transformer, so Ns is less than Np). 12 800 comes from turning the ratio upside down.
For the teacher: Applying, high difficulty, Chapter 6, standard 6.2.3

Question 14

Seorang tukang masak mengangkat sebuah periuk berjisim 4 kg dari lantai ke atas rak setinggi 1.5 m dalam masa 3 s. Berapakah kuasa yang digunakan? (g = 10 N kg⁻¹)A cook lifts a pot of mass 4 kg from the floor onto a shelf 1.5 m high in 3 s. What is the power used? (g = 10 N kg⁻¹)
Show answerHide answer
A
Weight = 4 × 10 = 40 N. Work done = 40 × 1.5 = 60 J. Power = 60 ÷ 3 = 20 W. 60 W is the work in joules, not the power.
For the teacher: Applying, high difficulty, Chapter 7, standard 7.1.2
Textbook p. 212

Question 15

Sebiji bola besi berjisim 0.5 kg dilepaskan dari keadaan pegun daripada ketinggian 3.2 m di atas lantai bengkel. Abaikan rintangan udara. Berapakah laju bola itu sebelum mengenai lantai? (g = 10 m s⁻²)An iron ball of mass 0.5 kg is released from rest from a height of 3.2 m above a workshop floor. Ignore air resistance. What is the speed of the ball just before it hits the floor? (g = 10 m s⁻²)
Show answerHide answer
D
Loss of gravitational P.E. = mgh = 0.5 × 10 × 3.2 = 16 J, all of which becomes kinetic energy. ½ × 0.5 × v² = 16, so v² = 64 and v = 8 m s⁻¹. 16 is the energy in joules, not the speed.
For the teacher: Applying, high difficulty, Chapter 7, standard 7.3.2
Textbook p. 226

Question 16

Sampel radioisotop yang digunakan dalam sebuah hospital mempunyai keaktifan 800 Bq. Separuh hayatnya ialah 6 jam. Berapakah keaktifannya selepas 24 jam?A radioisotope sample used in a hospital has an activity of 800 Bq. Its half-life is 6 hours. What is its activity after 24 hours?
Show answerHide answer
C
24 ÷ 6 = 4 half-lives. 800 → 400 → 200 → 100 → 50 Bq.

Question 17

Sebuah sumber radioaktif diletakkan di hadapan alat pembilang Geiger. Jadual 1 menunjukkan bilangan kiraan seminit (selepas ditolak sinaran latar) apabila bahan penghalang yang berbeza diletakkan di antara sumber dengan alat itu.
Bahan penghalang / AbsorberKiraan seminit / Counts per minute
Tiada / None640
Kertas / Paper636
Aluminium 3 mm631
Plumbum 10 cm / Lead 10 cm12
Apakah jenis sinaran yang dipancarkan oleh sumber itu?
A radioactive source is placed in front of a Geiger counter. Table 1 shows the counts per minute (after the background count is subtracted) when different absorbers are placed between the source and the counter. What type of radiation does the source emit?
Show answerHide answer
C
The counts barely fall with paper or 3 mm aluminium, so the radiation is not alpha (stopped by paper) or beta (stopped by about 3 mm aluminium). Only thick lead cuts it sharply, which is gamma radiation.

Question 18

Mengapakah tompok Matahari kelihatan gelap pada permukaan Matahari?Why do sunspots look dark on the surface of the Sun?
Show answerHide answer
B
Sunspots are cooler than the surrounding granules, so they look dark, but they are still thousands of degrees hot. They are not holes or empty regions.
