  • 扩展题通常要求你评估数据、讨论局限性并提出改进建议。

2. Gravitational Fields | 引力场

Gravitational fields are one of the highest-weighted topics in Paper 4. You must understand the difference between gravitational field strength and gravitational potential.

引力场是第四卷中分值最高的主题之一。你必须分清引力场强度与引力势的区别。

g = GM / r²

Here g is the gravitational field strength in N/kg, G is the gravitational constant, M is the central mass, and r is the distance from the centre of the mass.

其中g是引力场强度,单位为N/kg;G是引力常量;M是中心天体质量;r是距中心天体球心的距离。

The gravitational potential V is the work done per unit mass moving from infinity to a point:

引力势V表示将单位质量从无穷远移动到某一点所做的功:

V = −GM / r

Gravitational potential energy is given by E = mV, so E = −GMm / r. The negative sign shows that the system is bound.

引力势能为E = mV,所以E = −GMm / r。负号表示系统是束缚的。

For circular orbital motion, you can equate centripetal force with gravitational force:

对于圆周轨道运动,可以令向心力等于万有引力:

GMm / r² = mv² / r → v = √(GM / r)

From this you can derive Kepler’s third law in the form T² ∝ r³. Be careful: r is orbital radius, not altitude above the surface.

由此可以推导开普勒第三定律T² ∝ r³。注意:r是轨道半径,不是距地表的高度。


3. Electric Fields | 电场

Electric fields are closely analogous to gravitational fields, but charge can be positive or negative. Use Coulomb’s law for the force between point charges:

电场与引力场非常相似,但电荷有正有负。点电荷之间的力使用库仑定律:

F = kQ₁Q₂ / r²

where k = 1/(4πε₀) ≈ 8.99 × 10⁹ N m²/C².

其中k = 1/(4πε₀) ≈ 8.99 × 10⁹ N·m²/C²。

Electric field strength is defined as force per unit positive charge:

电场强度定义为每单位正电荷所受的力:

E = F / Q = kQ / r²

For a uniform field between parallel plates, E = V / d, where V is the potential difference and d is the plate separation.

对于平行板之间的匀强电场,E = V / d,其中V是电势差,d是板间距。

Electric potential V = kQ / r, and the work done moving a charge through a potential difference ΔV is W = qΔV.

电势V = kQ / r,移动电荷通过电势差ΔV所做的功为W = qΔV。


4. Magnetic Fields and Electromagnetic Induction | 磁场与电磁感应

Magnetic fields act on moving charges and current-carrying conductors. The force on a conductor of length L carrying current I perpendicular to a uniform field B is:

磁场对运动电荷和载流导体产生作用力。长度为L、通有电流I的导体在匀强磁场B中所受的力为:

F = BIL

If the conductor is at an angle θ to the field, use F = BIL sin θ. The force on a single charged particle moving at speed v is:

如果导体与磁场成θ角,则使用F = BIL sin θ。单个带电粒子以速度v运动时受到的力为:

F = Bqv

For a charged particle moving perpendicular to a uniform magnetic field, the magnetic force provides the centripetal force, so Bqv = mv²/r, giving r = mv/(Bq).

当带电粒子垂直于匀强磁场运动时,磁场力提供向心力,即Bqv = mv²/r,得r = mv/(Bq)。

Electromagnetic induction is described by Faraday’s and Lenz’s laws. Magnetic flux is Φ = BA cos θ, and flux linkage is NΦ = BAN cos θ.

电磁感应由法拉第定律和楞次定律描述。磁通量为Φ = BA cos θ,磁通链为NΦ = BAN cos θ。

ε = −N dΦ/dt

The minus sign in Faraday’s law is the mathematical expression of Lenz’s law: the induced current opposes the change that produces it.

法拉第定律中的负号正是楞次定律的数学表达:感应电流总是阻碍引起它的磁通量变化。


5. Further Mechanics: Circular Motion and Momentum | 进阶力学:圆周运动与动量

Circular motion requires a centripetal acceleration directed towards the centre. The key equations are:

圆周运动需要一个指向圆心的向心加速度。关键方程如下:

a = v²/r = ω²r, F = mv²/r = mω²r

Angular speed ω is related to period T and frequency f by ω = 2π/T = 2πf.

角速度ω与周期T和频率f的关系为ω = 2π/T = 2πf。

Momentum is always conserved in closed systems. For elastic collisions, kinetic energy is also conserved; for inelastic collisions, some kinetic energy is transformed into other forms.

动量在封闭系统中始终守恒。弹性碰撞中动能也守恒;非弹性碰撞中部分动能转化为其他形式的能量。

When objects stick together after collision, use the conservation of momentum:

当物体碰撞后粘在一起时,使用动量守恒:

m₁u₁ + m₂u₂ = (m₁ + m₂)v

Impulse is equal to the change in momentum: Ft = Δp. This is also the area under a force–time graph.

冲量等于动量变化量:Ft = Δp。这也是力–时间图下方区域的面积。


6. Simple Harmonic Motion and Energy | 简谐运动与能量

Simple harmonic motion (SHM) occurs when the restoring force is proportional to displacement and acts in the opposite direction. The defining equation is:

当回复力与位移成正比且方向相反时,物体做简谐运动(SHM)。定义方程为:

a = −ω²x

For a mass on a spring, ω = √(k/m); for a simple pendulum, ω = √(g/L). The displacement is a sinusoidal function of time:

对于弹簧振子,ω = √(k/m);对于单摆,ω = √(g/L)。位移是时间正弦函数:

x = A sin(ωt)

Velocity is maximum at the equilibrium position and zero at the amplitude. Energy transfers between kinetic and potential forms, with total energy E = ½mω²A².

速度在平衡位置最大,在振幅处为零。能量在动能和势能之间转化,总能量E = ½mω²A²。

Damping reduces the amplitude over time. Light damping produces a slow decay; heavy damping causes the system to return to equilibrium without oscillation.

阻尼使振幅随时间减小。欠阻尼使振幅缓慢衰减;过阻尼使系统不振荡地回到平衡位置。


7. Data Handling and Graph Analysis | 数据与图表分析

Paper 4 rewards precise data handling. AQA expects you to use correct significant figures, units, and to calculate percentage uncertainties.

第四卷非常重视数据的精确处理。AQA要求使用正确的有效数字、单位,并计算百分比不确定度。

  • Plot graphs with the independent variable on the x-axis and the dependent variable on the y-axis.
  • If a relationship is not linear, linearise it by plotting a suitable quantity, e.g. T² against L for a pendulum.
  • Calculate the gradient using large triangle points and include error bars where required.
  • 作图时自变量取横轴,因变量取纵轴。
  • 若关系不是线性的,可通过绘制合适的量将其线性化,例如单摆中绘制T²对L的图像。
  • 使用大三角形取点计算斜率,并在需要时标注误差棒。

For a straight line through the origin, y = mx represents a direct proportion. If the intercept is non-zero, there may be a systematic error.

若过原点的直线满足y = mx,表示正比例关系。若截距不为零,则可能存在系统误差。


8. Common Mistakes and Exam Techniques | 常见错误与考试技巧

Students lose marks not because they do not know the physics, but because of avoidable errors. Check the following:

学生丢分往往不是因为不懂物理,而是因为可以避免的错误。请检查以下要点:

  • Always convert cm to m, g to kg, and minutes to seconds before calculation.
  • Use the radius when using orbital formulas; altitude alone is not enough.
  • When using F = Bqv, the angle between v and B matters; the full form is F = Bqv sin θ.
  • State the direction of forces and induced currents: e.g. ‘towards the centre’ or ‘clockwise’.
  • 计算前务必把厘米换成米、克换成千克、分钟换成秒。
  • 使用轨道公式时必须用轨道半径;仅知道高度是不够的。
  • 使用F = Bqv时,v与B的夹角很重要;完整形式为F = Bqv sin θ。
  • 说明力或感应电流的方向,例如“指向圆心”或“顺时针”。

In extended-response questions, write a logical chain: define quantities, state equations, substitute values, then evaluate. Mention assumptions such as ‘ignoring air resistance’ or ‘uniform radial field’.

在扩展回答题中,要写出逻辑链条:定义物理量→列方程→代入数值→计算结果。还需要提及假设,如“忽略空气阻力”或“均匀径向场”。


9. Worked Example: Orbital Motion | 例题:天体轨道运动

Consider a satellite at an altitude of 400 km above Earth. Earth’s radius is 6400 km, and its mass is 6.0 × 10²⁴ kg. Use G = 6.67 × 10⁻¹¹ N m²/kg² to calculate the orbital speed.

设想一颗卫星在距地表400 km的轨道上运行。地球半径为6400 km,质量为6.0 × 10²⁴ kg。取G = 6.67 × 10⁻¹¹ N·m²/kg²,计算其轨道速率。

Step 1: Work out the orbital radius. r = 6400 + 400 = 6800 km = 6.8 × 10⁶ m.

第一步:计算轨道半径。r = 6400 + 400 = 6800 km = 6.8 × 10⁶ m。

Step 2: Use the orbital speed formula v = √(GM/r).

第二步:使用轨道速率公式v = √(GM/r)。

Step 3: Substitute values. v = √[(6.67 × 10⁻¹¹)(6.0 × 10²⁴)/(6.8 × 10⁶)] = √(5.88 × 10⁷) ≈ 7.7 × 10³ m/s.

第三步:代入数值。v = √[(6.67 × 10⁻¹¹)(6.0 × 10²⁴)/(6.8 × 10⁶)] = √(5.88 × 10⁷) ≈ 7.7 × 10³ m/s。

Step 4: Check the answer is reasonable. Low Earth orbit velocities are about 7.5–8 km/s, so this is plausible.

第四步:检验答案是否合理。近地轨道速率约为7.5–8 km/s,因此该结果合理。

v ≈ 7.7 × 10³ m/s

You would gain full marks only if you also wrote that the centripetal force equals the gravitational force, and that the orbit was assumed to be circular.

只有当你同时写出“向心力等于万有引力”并假设“轨道为圆形”时,才能获得满分。
