Physics - December

<p>I think it was</p>

<ol>
<li>Which one has a higher meting point?</li>
<li>Sry dont remember</li>
<li>Which one has lower specific heat?</li>
</ol>

<p>oh i remember now...i think 2 is "which one used more energy in phase change"</p>

<p>and the question stated that the two samples had same mass
I put 1. it was greater in X than Y -- because the temperature was higher
2. it is lesser in X than Y -- because the horizontal part of the graph was shorter
3. it is lesser in X than Y because the heat goes up faster
A, B, B??</p>

<p>I definitely did terrible. I am only like..3/4 through my honors physics class (we don't have AP physics) and....we haven't even started like sound/electriciy/light, so everything I know in that I learned in the past two weeks or know from chemistry. I left like 20 blank, and was, quite frankly, a little annoyed at mr. princeton review study book. From what I studied, there should have been a lot more kinematics and forces, which I know I could ace..
yeah. sucked major....arse. I would have gone back and studied for chemistry or something if I'd have known I wouldn't be prepared for it.</p>

<p>hmm let me ask u guys a question
some of the bad physics students must have missed this</p>

<p>on the matching for the earth gravitational force</p>

<p>u guys do know that B not A has more gravitational force right?</p>

<p>and how bout the matching for the stupid light that one was a *****</p>

<p>how does B have more gravitational force then A? A is closest to the center, so r^2 is smaller and thus GM<em>1M</em>2/r^2 is greater.</p>

<p>YEAZKMLA: i put the same for the phase change graphs...i think the questions didnt give out masses but it did say that the masses were the same for the 2 objects.</p>

<p>I remember i put B for one but wat about the other question that had to do with those planets</p>

<p>noobs dude</p>

<p>because r i s closer to the planet that means all the extra mass does not count</p>

<p>it has to be B because then all the mass of the planet will count</p>

<p>what are u guys talking about on the phase diagrams</p>

<p>are u crazy...</p>

<p>one question asked to find which one requires more heat for the temperature increase. obviously since the equation is q=mct and m is CLEARLY not GIVEN IN THE EQUATION the answer is like d or something the answer that says the answer can not be found because the mass is not given..</p>

<p>come u think the college board would really put in an answer chocie that says the mass is not given if they gave the mass in the question. goodness</p>

<p>What are you talking about innocent? The mass of the planet is contained no matter where you are. And let's wait until our scores come out before acting certain ways?</p>

<p>nope i even did this in sparknotes sat physics</p>

<p>if u go half way into the earth</p>

<p>the gravity effectively becomes g/2 </p>

<p>the mass of the earth decreases as u go further in...</p>

<p>The mass of the earth never changes regardless of where you are. The weight/force due to gravity might change but mass is constant</p>

<p>innocent is right (I checked sparknotes), though conceptually this is still a bit hard to believe, and it was not covered in princeton's review surprisingly</p>

<p>what was the answer to the capacitor question where they change some things around?</p>

<p>and what about the question where light enters a glass prism and leaves? did it go up or down?</p>

<p>i put refracted down</p>

<p>I put refracted down too. The Dark Side of the Moon album cover was my only source for that guess. I couldn't remember the rules and that picture came to mind.</p>

<p>i took the test, too...
(yes, I also put refracted down)
I think that test killed me, but I'll see, I am amazed you guys remember anything... I swear I purged hte test from my mind the minute I walked out of the testing room...</p>

<p>what do you think the curve will be? is it generally agreed upon that this test was hard? i hope we can still get 800's with a raw score of 55-60</p>

<p>I hope I can get a 600. Damn school teaching AP Physics C only and there not being many mechanical questions on the test.</p>

<p>Hmmm I left 20-25 blank and I got a 610... wow this curve is good. :)</p>
