2. Question 1: Vertical Projectile Motion | 题目 1:竖直上抛运动
A ball is thrown vertically upwards from ground level with an initial speed of 20 m s⁻¹. Take g = 9.8 m s⁻² and air resistance as negligible. Calculate (a) the maximum height reached and (b) the total time of flight until the ball returns to the ground.
一个球以 20 m s⁻¹ 的初速度从地面竖直向上抛出。取 g = 9.8 m s⁻²,忽略空气阻力。计算 (a) 到达的最大高度和 (b) 球落回地面的总飞行时间。
For part (a), use the equation that links initial velocity u, final velocity v, acceleration a, and displacement s without time: v² = u² + 2as. At the highest point, v = 0, u = 20 m s⁻¹, and a = -g = -9.8 m s⁻² (upwards taken as positive).
对于 (a) 部分,使用将初速度 u、末速度 v、加速度 a 和位移 s 联系起来但不含时间的方程:v² = u² + 2as。在最高点,v = 0,u = 20 m s⁻¹,a = -g = -9.8 m s⁻²(取向上为正方向)。
0² = (20)² + 2 × (−9.8) × s → s = 400 ÷ 19.6 ≈ 20.4 m
The maximum height is 20.4 m. For part (b), first find the time to reach the maximum height using v = u + at. Setting v = 0 gives 0 = 20 + (−9.8) t_up, so t_up = 20 / 9.8 ≈ 2.04 s. Since the motion is symmetrical, the total time of flight is twice this value.
最大高度为 20.4 m。对于 (b) 部分,首先用 v = u + at 求出到达最高点的时间。设 v = 0,得 0 = 20 + (−9.8) t_up,因此 t_up = 20 / 9.8 ≈ 2.04 s。由于运动对称,总飞行时间是该值的两倍。
t_total = 2 × 2.04 = 4.08 s
Always check the number of significant figures: the data is given to 2 or 3 significant figures, so answers like 20.4 m and 4.08 s are appropriate. Rounding to 20 m or 4.1 s may lose marks.
务必检查有效数字位数:已知数据给出 2 到 3 位有效数字,因此 20.4 m 和 4.08 s 这样的答案是合适的。若四舍五入为 20 m 或 4.1 s 可能会丢分。
3. Question 2: Inclined Plane Friction | 题目 2:斜面摩擦
A block of mass 5.0 kg rests on a rough plane inclined at 30° to the horizontal. The coefficient of static friction between the block and the plane is μ. The block is just about to slide. Show that μ = tan 30° and calculate its value. Use g = 9.8 m s⁻².
一个质量为 5.0 kg 的木块静置在粗糙斜面上,斜面与水平面的夹角为 30°。木块与斜面间的静摩擦系数为 μ。木块刚好开始滑动。证明 μ = tan 30° 并计算其值。取 g = 9.8 m s⁻²。
Resolve the weight mg into components parallel and perpendicular to the plane: mg sinθ down the slope and mg cosθ into the plane. The normal reaction N equals mg cosθ, and the limiting frictional force f_max = μN = μ mg cosθ acts up the slope to oppose motion. At the point of sliding, the down‑slope component of weight is exactly balanced by friction.
将重力 mg 分解为平行于斜面和垂直于斜面的分量:沿斜面向下的 mg sinθ 和垂直于斜面的 mg cosθ。法向反作用力 N 等于 mg cosθ,极限摩擦力 f_max = μN = μ mg cosθ 沿斜面向上阻碍运动。在滑动临界点,重力的下滑分量恰好与摩擦力平衡。
mg sinθ = μ mg cosθ → μ = sinθ / cosθ = tanθ
Thus μ = tan 30°. Using a calculator, tan 30° = 1 / √3 ≈ 0.577. The mass and g cancel out, so the result is independent of them. Always state the final answer as μ ≈ 0.58 (to two decimal places).
因此 μ = tan 30°。用计算器得 tan 30° = 1 / √3 ≈ 0.577。质量和 g 消去,因此结果与它们无关。最终答案应写为 μ ≈ 0.58(保留两位小数)。
4. Question 3: Car Power Calculation | 题目 3:汽车功率计算
A car of mass 1200 kg accelerates from rest to 25 m s⁻¹ in 8.0 seconds on a level road. A constant resistive force of 400 N opposes its motion. Calculate the average useful power developed by the engine during this acceleration.
一辆质量为 1200 kg 的汽车在水平路面上从静止加速到 25 m s⁻¹,用时 8.0 秒。汽车受到 400 N 的恒定阻力。计算在此加速过程中发动机产生的平均有用功率。
First find the acceleration a using a = Δv / Δt = 25 / 8.0 = 3.125 m s⁻². The resultant force needed is given by Newton’s second law: F_net = m a = 1200 × 3.125 = 3750 N. The engine must also overcome the 400 N resistive force, so the total driving force F_drive = F_net + resistive force = 3750 + 400 = 4150 N.
首先用 a = Δv / Δt 求出加速度 a = 25 / 8.0 = 3.125 m s⁻²。所需合力由牛顿第二定律给出:F_net = m a = 1200 × 3.125 = 3750 N。发动机还必须克服 400 N 的阻力,因此总驱动力 F_drive = F_net + 阻力 = 3750 + 400 = 4150 N。
Average power can be computed using P_avg = F_drive × v_avg. Since acceleration is uniform, the average velocity v_avg = (0 + 25) / 2 = 12.5 m s⁻¹. Hence P_avg = 4150 × 12.5 = 51 875 W ≈ 52 kW. Alternatively, calculate the displacement s = ½ a t² = ½ × 3.125 × 64 = 100 m, the work done W = F_drive × s = 4150 × 100 = 415 000 J, and then P_avg = W / t = 415 000 / 8.0 = 51 875 W.
平均功率可用 P_avg = F_drive × v_avg 计算。由于加速度恒定,平均速度 v_avg = (0 + 25) / 2 = 12.5 m s⁻¹。因此 P_avg = 4150 × 12.5 = 51 875 W ≈ 52 kW。或者,计算位移 s = ½ a t² = ½ × 3.125 × 64 = 100 m,做功 W = F_drive × s = 4150 × 100 = 415 000 J,然后 P_avg = W / t = 415 000 / 8.0 = 51 875 W。
P_avg ≈ 5.2 × 10⁴ W (52 kW)
Both routes produce the same result. In an exam, showing two methods can verify your answer, but one clear method is sufficient. Remember to convert to kW if the question asks for a convenient unit.
两种途径得出相同结果。在考试中,展示两种方法可验证答案,但一种清晰的方法已足够。若题目要求使用方便的单位,记得转换为 kW。
5. Question 4: Stress‑Strain Curve Analysis | 题目 4:应力-应变曲线分析
Sketch and label a typical stress‑strain graph for a ductile metal, such as copper. Indicate the elastic limit, yield point, ultimate tensile strength, and fracture point. Explain what is happening to the material at each stage.
画出并标注一种延性金属(如铜)的典型应力-应变曲线。标出弹性极限、屈服点、极限抗拉强度以及断裂点。解释材料在各个阶段发生的现象。
In the initial straight‑line region, stress is proportional to strain (Hooke’s law). The gradient of this linear section gives the Young modulus, E = stress / strain. Up to the elastic limit, the material returns to its original shape when the load is removed. Beyond this limit, plastic deformation begins.
在初始直线段,应力与应变成正比(胡克定律)。该线性段的斜率即为杨氏模量,E = 应力 / 应变。在达到弹性极限之前,去除载荷后材料恢复原状。超过该极限后,塑性变形开始。
The yield point is where a noticeable increase in strain occurs for little or no increase in stress — the material suddenly extends. After yielding, the material hardens and the stress rises to a maximum called the ultimate tensile strength (UTS). Necking then occurs, the cross‑sectional area decreases, and the stress falls until fracture.
屈服点是应变急剧增加而应力几乎不再增加的位置——材料突然伸长。屈服之后,材料硬化,应力上升至称为极限抗拉强度(UTS)的最大值。随后发生颈缩,横截面积减小,应力下降直至断裂。
Key formulas to recall: engineering stress σ = F / A₀ (original area); strain ε = ΔL / L₀ (original length). The area under the stress‑strain curve represents the energy per unit volume absorbed. An exam question might ask you to calculate Young modulus from the linear portion or to compare the curves of a ductile material and a brittle material.
需牢记的关键公式:工程应力 σ = F / A₀(原始截面积);应变 ε = ΔL / L₀(原始长度)。应力-应变曲线下的面积代表单位体积吸收的能量。考题可能要求你根据线性部分计算杨氏模量,或比较延性材料与脆性材料的曲线。
6. Question 5: Circuit Analysis with Internal Resistance | 题目 5:含有内阻的电路分析
A cell of e.m.f. 1.50 V and internal resistance 0.50 Ω is connected to an external resistor of 2.50 Ω. Calculate (a) the current in the circuit, (b) the terminal potential difference across the cell, and (c) the power dissipated in the external resistor.
一个电动势为 1.50 V、内阻为 0.50 Ω 的电池与一个 2.50 Ω 的外电阻连接。计算 (a) 电路中的电流,(b) 电池的端电压,以及 (c) 外电阻上消耗的功率。
Use the relation ε = I (R + r), where ε is e.m.f., R is external resistance, r is internal resistance. Rearranging gives I = ε / (R + r) = 1.50 / (2.50 + 0.50) = 1.50 / 3.00 = 0.50 A.
使用关系式 ε = I (R + r),其中 ε 为电动势,R 为外电阻,r 为内阻。整理得 I = ε / (R + r) = 1.50 / (2.50 + 0.50) = 1.50 / 3.00 = 0.50 A。
The terminal p.d. V_t is the voltage across the external resistor, or V_t = ε − I r. Thus V_t = 1.50 − (0.50 × 0.50) = 1.50 − 0.25 = 1.25 V. Alternatively, V_t = I R = 0.50 × 2.50 = 1.25 V.
端电压 V_t 是外电阻两端的电压,或 V_t = ε − I r。因此 V_t = 1.50 − (0.50 × 0.50) = 1.50 − 0.25 = 1.25 V。或者 V_t = I R = 0.50 × 2.50 = 1.25 V。
Power in the external resistor: P = I² R = (0.50)² × 2.50 = 0.25 × 2.50 = 0.625 W. Ensure you use the correct resistance for ‘useful’ power — the internal resistance also dissipates power as heat, but that is not available to the external circuit.
外电阻的功率:P = I² R = (0.50)² × 2.50 = 0.25 × 2.50 = 0.625 W。确保使用正确的电阻来计算“有用”功率——内阻也会以热的形式消耗功率,但那不是外电路可用的。
P = 0.63 W (to 2 significant figures)
7. Question 6: Photoelectric Effect Calculation | 题目 6:光电效应计算
Light of wavelength 4.50 × 10⁻⁷ m is incident on a metal surface with a work function φ = 2.00 eV. Calculate the maximum kinetic energy of the emitted photoelectrons in eV. Given: Planck constant h = 6.63 × 10⁻³⁴ J s, speed of light c = 3.00 × 10⁸ m s⁻¹, 1 eV = 1.60 × 10⁻¹⁹ J.
波长为 4.50 × 10⁻⁷ m 的光照射在逸出功 φ = 2.00 eV 的金属表面上。计算发射出的光电子最大动能(以 eV 为单位)。已知:普朗克常数 h = 6.63 × 10⁻³⁴ J s,光速 c = 3.00 × 10⁸ m s⁻¹,1 eV = 1.60 × 10⁻¹⁹ J。
First calculate the photon energy E_photon = h c / λ. Substitute the values: E_photon = (6.63 × 10⁻³⁴ × 3.00 × 10⁸) / (4.50 × 10⁻⁷). Compute the numerator: 6.63 × 3.00 = 19.89; powers of ten give 10⁻³⁴ × 10⁸ = 10⁻²⁶. Dividing by 4.50 × 10⁻⁷ yields (19.89 / 4.50) × 10⁻¹⁹ ≈ 4.42 × 10⁻¹⁹ J.
首先计算光子能量 E_photon = h c / λ。代入数值:E_photon = (6.63 × 10⁻³⁴ × 3.00 × 10⁸) / (4.50 × 10⁻⁷)。计算分子:6.63 × 3.00 = 19.89;10 的幂次得 10⁻³⁴ × 10⁸ = 10⁻²⁶。除以 4.50 × 10⁻⁷ 得 (19.89 / 4.50) × 10⁻¹⁹ ≈ 4.42 × 10⁻¹⁹ J。
Convert this energy to eV: E_photon (eV) = 4.42 × 10⁻¹⁹ / 1.60 × 10⁻¹⁹ = 2.7625 eV. Using Einstein’s photoelectric equation, K_max = h f − φ = E_photon − φ = 2.76 − 2.00 = 0.76 eV (approximately).
将此能量转换为 eV:E_photon (eV) = 4.42 × 10⁻¹⁹ / 1.60 × 10⁻¹⁹ = 2.7625 eV。利用爱因斯坦光电方程,K_max = h f − φ = E_photon − φ = 2.76 − 2.00 = 0.76 eV(约)。
K_max ≈ 0.76 eV
Note that this is the maximum kinetic energy; electrons emitted from deeper inside the metal may lose energy and emerge with less. Be careful with units — always convert to joules first if the work function is given in eV and constants are in SI.
注意这是最大动能;从金属较深位置发射的电子可能损失能量,以更小的动能逸出。注意单位——如果逸出功以 eV 给出而常数采用 SI 制,需先转换为焦耳。
