A car travels 100 metres in 20 seconds. i) What is the cars speed? ii) How far would the car travel in 1 minute 40 seconds?

To answer this question, we will need the following equation: SPEED = DISTANCE/TIME (A multiplication and division triangle will be shown)i) The speed of the car is calculated by doing 100 metres/ 20 seco...

Explain in terms of specific heat capacity why a hot water bottle is good at heating a bed.

Water has a very high specific heat capacity, it is fair to assume bed-sheets and bedding items have a much lower specific heat capacity. If an object has a high temperature and is in surroundings at a lo...

Draw a freebody diagram showing the forces acting on a box sat on a table

The first thing to note is that the book is sat on the table, so it is stationary. From newtons laws, we know it must have 0 total force acting on it. Every object on the earth feels a force downwards due...

(A-level but box won't let me change it from GCSE) A particle of charge q and initial speed v is stopped by a potential difference V in distance d and time t. What was its initial momentum?

Define p=momentum, E=electric field.Firstly we know that:1) ∆p/∆t = F - definition of momentum2) F = Eq - force on particle in an electric field caused by a voltage3) E = V/d - definition of electric fiel...
