**Official June 2013 SAT II Physics Thread**

<p>Test is tomorrow! How prepared do you guys feel?</p>

<p>I done my test in HONG KONG. Is the time ok for us to discuss the test now?</p>

<p>If you’re done then yes it’s okay to talk about it. How did you do?</p>

<p>It’s not okay lmao, stop trying to get answers</p>

<p>@ri0chardli
What do you think was the hardest questions on the test?</p>

<p>well, i get to say there are 5 questions that i omit, but i hardly recall anyone of them. I remember the last one question that talk about the “fraual pattern” or something else, i am an Asian, i did not really understand that question.But i chose E something of insect.</p>

<p>Didnt think it was too bad…</p>

<p>I did horribly…but the test was about the same level of difficulty as the practice tests I took.</p>

<p>what did you guys have trouble on?</p>

<p>I picked dirt cracks for that one.</p>

<p>for the one with squares temperatures-- can a block transfer heat if it has a larger mass than another block but the same temperature?</p>

<p>I thought it was easier than the Princeton review test</p>

<p>@bojl95. I put insects but for your question. I though it didn’t because both of them were the same temperature</p>

<p>i dont think mass matters. heat can only transfer spontaneously from a hotter object to a cooler object, and if they are the same then there is no heat transfer</p>

<p>what about the one with the two bar magnets? like side 2 was attracted to side 3 or whatever, then the second one was 2 and 3 were attracted and 1 and 4 were attracted</p>

<p>Don’t think insects was the answer
I picked dirt because dirt can crack relatively randomly. I can make a crack in the dirt if the dirt is solidified.</p>

<p>@maxium</p>

<p>Yeah I’m not sure about that one. But my logic was that q = mcdeltat, and if the mass is greater then there’s a disparity between the heat content of each block. But i’m pretty sure that’s just because it has more particles. I’m pretty sure i got that one wrong.</p>

<p>Also for the bar magnets:</p>

<p>the first question I got either or both of them has to be a bar magnet. The second one I got both of them have to be bar magnets. I’m 95% sure I got the first one right, not too sure about the second one though.</p>

<p>yeah i said that for the first one too but i said the same thing for the second. i forget if it said that 2 was attracted to 3 or if it said 2 and 3 attracted each other. if it was the first then i think it would be that bar Y was a permanent magnet, but if it was the latter then i think that answer was right. May have gotten that one wrong though…also what do you guys think the curve will be?</p>

<p>insect was the answer.

<p>I omitted 2 as I had no time. I just hope I don’t have many mistakes as the test was relatively easy for the most part. I need this 800 so bad. I have to wait 19 more days for scores D:</p>

<p>Can someone start making a question pool or something? I want to check my answers haha. I omitted 10 and didn’t have to to go back and look over them. And I always make a million stupid mistakes.</p>

<p>For the one with the different diameter wires and the questions were asking about current and resistance, was it just, the bigger the diameter of the wire the more current it had, and less resistance?</p>

<p>the bigger the diameter the less the resistance</p>
