physicsruinslives Posted November 8, 2013 Report Share Posted November 8, 2013 How did everyone find standard level physics paper 1 and 2? It's been 24 hours since then I think Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ViXen Posted November 8, 2013 Report Share Posted November 8, 2013 Physics P1 was pretty nice, but the seemingly easy force body diagram stumped me for a bit. I thought Section B options weren't as nice as they typically are, however. I chose question 4 for Section B. The atomic and nuclear physics was a piece of cake, but the thermal physics calculation question I don't feel too confident about. Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kiandra S. Posted November 8, 2013 Report Share Posted November 8, 2013 For paper 2 I choose question 6 for section B. Someone rembembers in the collision was elastic or ineleastic? Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
physicsruinslives Posted November 8, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 8, 2013 I chose number 6 too. The collision was in elastic. I quite liked paper 2 compared to some of the past papers I had done Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gabslion Posted November 8, 2013 Report Share Posted November 8, 2013 P1 was quite easy, for paper 2 I also chose 6 for Section B. Do you think the bands are going to be up or down? Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kiandra S. Posted November 9, 2013 Report Share Posted November 9, 2013 I think they are going to be up. Quite an easy exam if you revised well.. Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
physicsruinslives Posted November 9, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 9, 2013 Yeah probably up, I struggle with physics a lot and found a lot of it to be doable. Sucks though I need all the help I can get :/ when are we allowed to talk about paper 3? Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
WTF is IB Posted November 9, 2013 Report Share Posted November 9, 2013 Man I didn't find the papers easy...I'm pretty sure i did a lot of mistakes for paper 1. And paper 3 i messed up completely my astro.. and it was not even hard but i messed up. And for physics paper 2 i did question 1, coz i didnt revise nuclear at all. teacher left us so we had to catch up alone and i couldnt understand ****. Who did question 5? And was the new equation for paper 1, was it proportional? Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
physicsruinslives Posted November 9, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 9, 2013 It's okay I messed up the quantum and nuclear option too :/ Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kiandra S. Posted November 9, 2013 Report Share Posted November 9, 2013 I got it was not proportional but not sure about it 1 Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeanlean Posted November 9, 2013 Report Share Posted November 9, 2013 Paper 1 was easier than I expected! However, I knew that I made some silly mistakes (as usual) but not too many I hope... Paper 2 was also quite manageable and I chose Question 6 too Did anybody do options A and C for Paper 3? I thought the questions were okay except for the one about Schmitt Triggers o.O Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danyon Thomas Posted November 9, 2013 Report Share Posted November 9, 2013 I found Paper 1 easier than expected too, seems like most people who sat it from my school were the same. Paper 2 was alright, the data analysis question was bizarre compared to other years I thought. Paper 3 did DigiTech and EM Waves, Digitech was pretty straightforward really with few calculations which was a bit abnormal. EM waves was just strange with, water waves instead of a laser for double slit interference, making it difficult to apply some concepts (Yes, the water waves get brighter!)

jeanlean Posted November 9, 2013 Report Share Posted November 9, 2013 Yeah the Section A question was quite odd, Section B was okay though thank the lord! Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeanlean Posted November 9, 2013 Report Share Posted November 9, 2013 I got it was not proportional but not sure about it I got not proportional too! What was your reason? Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
physicsruinslives Posted November 9, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 9, 2013 I did option a and b. found option a good but option b was a bit odd and I think I got about 4 marks :/ Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kiandra S. Posted November 9, 2013 Report Share Posted November 9, 2013 I got it was not proportional but not sure about it I got not proportional too! What was your reason? In the first question of "prove that is not linear" I used two points. These same two point I used for the new equation with the square values of x. I divided Y values of the first point bu its squared x value, then did the same with a second point and compare the results. They were not the same so they where not proportional i guess Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

gabslion Posted November 9, 2013 Report Share Posted November 9, 2013 I did option B and D. Option B was quite easy I think, D was kind of tricky but it wasnt difficult Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
