SPM Trial Paper 3 Analysis

Hi..everyone,

How do u guys feel at the moment?? Hope u are ready for this challenging week... especially about your final preparation on having physics after add maths paper. Just be calm & keep your concentration at highest level after u 've finished add maths paper.
Make sure u change your calculator angle mode from radian to degree mode. Otherwise your calculation on topics like refractive index,critical angle, resolving forces angle will be wrong. Dont forget to bring protractor, who knows this time they might ask u to draw triangle of forces in equilibrium with proper scaling.

Here i managed to list out some analysis on paper 3 section B based on recent states' trial papers. Hope this information will be useful.

Anyway i wish all of u Good Luck and all the best in your physics & other papers.

2010 Trial Paper 3, section B  analysis:

State	Experiment Form4	Experiment Form5
Selangor	Heat: mass affect amount of heat absorbed	Electricity: Length of wire affect resistance
Kedah	Light/lens: Thickness of lens affect focal length	Wave: Loudness of sound depends on distance
Kelantan	Light/refraction: Real depth affects apparent depth	Electricity: Thickness of wire affect resistance
Pahang	Light/lens: Thickness of lens affect focal length	Electromagnet: Induce current depends on speed of magnet
Melaka	Heat/Charle's law volume of gas dpends on temprature	Wave: Wavelength depends on depth
Terengganu	Pressure in liquid: density affect pressure	Electromagnet: Strenght of magnet depends on current
Wilayah	Pressure in liquid: depth affect pressure	Wave: Sound  interference
Perlis	Heat: mass affect rate of heat absorbed	Electricity: temperature affect resistance
Sabah	Heat: mass of water affects rate of  temperature change	Wave: Sound  interference
SBP	Archimedes: Buoyant force depends on weight of water displace	Wave: Sound  interference
MRSM	Boyles' law: Pressure dpends on volume of gas	Electricity: Length affect resistance

ps: i dint include trial analysis on the following states: S'wak, Penang, N9,Perak,..so may b those who frm these states can share with us your P3 trial sect B questions

SPM Physics: 2010 Hot Topics

Recently I received too many request for SPM 2010 tips.The truth is,for those want to get good results, u actually need to be strong in all chapters. However, i dont want to let u down, here i list out some of the HOT topics for this year. 


SPM 2010 TIPS:  Form4


Chap 1 - Measuring instrument,zero error,sensitivity,accuracy

Chap 2 - Linear graph,ticker tape, momentum,RESOLVING FORCES,
equilibrium forces,lift+gravity, conservation of energy, application of hooke's law

Chap 3 - Gas & atmospheric pressure,manometer+barometer),application of  archimedes, application of bernoulli 

Chap 4 - thermometer specs & calibration,specific heat capacity(application)latent heat graph,charles +pressure law

Chap 5 - Lenses (drawing & application:microscope), refraction + total internal reflection(drawing &  application),
plane mirror stuff, curved mirror drawing & application

SPM 2010 TIPS:  Form5

Chpt 1 :Undrstanding wave graph,( frequency,period,wavelength), resonance,Wave diffraction ( for water,sound & light)
Wave interference ( for water,sound & light)


Chpt 2:
Electric field,Serise parallel application,Ohms Law, Emf & Internal resistance,Factors affecting resistance


Chpt 3:
Electromagnet & Application(motor etc), catapult field+turning effect & application,
Induction & Application, (Lenz +Faradays law, generator & etc),transfromer & national grid

Chapt 4:
CRO, diode waveform+doping,Transistor circuit(amplifier+switch) 


Chapt 5:
Radioactive decay & its radiation properties,Radioisotope application, Half Life,  Fission, Fusion+Nuclear reactor


U are welcome to discuss other tips u've receicved in the comment section. However all topics can be asked in paper 1 . In other words u need to study almost all subtopics in order to get an A (;
..so all the best & Good luck!
