Explain what is meant by forced vibrations (5)


Give this one a try later!


forced vibrations = periodic force applied (1) frequency determined by as
frequency of oscillator (1) phase difference is 180 degrees (pi rads) (1)
frequency of driver > frequency of oscillator (1) amplitude small at high
frequency and vice versa




newton's third law


Give this one a try later!

, every action has an equal and oppisite reaction




conditions for equilibrium


Give this one a try later!


resultant force is 0 (1) resultant torque is 0 (1)




Effect on diffraction pattern when wavelength decreases (3)


Give this one a try later!


Maxima closer together (1) angle decreases (1) smaller path difference (1)




newton's second law


Give this one a try later!


f=ma




Explain how excitation takes place in a fluorescent tube


Give this one a try later!

, Electrons flow through the tube to the applied PD causing a current to flow (1)
Electrons collide with mercury atoms in the tube (1)
This raises electrons in the mercury atom to a higher energy level (1)




define center of mass


Give this one a try later!


the point in the body through which the mass appears to act




Formation of a stationary wave


Give this one a try later!


Two waves superpose (1)
same wavelength and/or frequency (1)
Travelling with equal and opposite velocity (direction of movement) (1)




explain what is meant by spring constant (k)


Give this one a try later!


force divided by extention
