another).
6 Carried out a practical demonstration of an electric motor lifting a load on
7 Recorded measurements of the time taken to lift the load.

one form into another).
9 Carried out a practical demonstration the energy transformation of a solar cell on
10 Recorded voltage measurements for a range of angles between solar cell and lamp.
11 Explained the practical demonstration of the solar cell (i.e. why energy is converted from
one form into another).
D3 12 Task 3(a): Calculated the efficiency of the motor lifting a 20 g load through a height of 1.5
m.
