Notes for some specific questions:
2 – Ans: C. For ans A, Tcos30 is the
vertical component of tension T and cannot be equated to the horizontal force H. B is incorrect since H is horizontal and the
correct equation relating T and H would be Tsin30 = H where Tsin30 is the
horizontal component of T. Ans C is correct since 2 vertical forces are being
equated. As for ans D, W which is vertical is equated to Tsin30, which
represents the horizontal component of T. So, it is incorrect.
3 - Ans: B. {Detailed explanations for this question is available as Solution 507 at Physics 9702 Doubts | Help Page 98 - http://physics-ref.blogspot.com/2015/03/physics-9702-doubts-help-page-98.html}

5 – Ans: C. if there is a (0.01/5=) 0.2%
uncertainty in diameter, then there will be a 0.6% uncertainty in volume

9 – Ans: D. The question asks what
is MEANT by mass and weight of an object. For mass, only “the property
that resists its acceleration” tell us what mass means. “Its momentum divided
by its velocity” do not tell us what mass means. The same goes for weight.
Weight is the pull of the Earth on it.
10 – Ans: B Gravitational force does
not alter when the spacecraft is launched
11 - Ans: C. {Detailed explanations for this question is available as Solution 160 at Physics 9702 Doubts | Help Page 27 - http://physics-ref.blogspot.com/2014/11/physics-9702-doubts-help-page-27.html}
12 – Ans: D. When a body is moving
through air to the left, there will be a drag force acting on it to the right,
as well as its weight.
14 – Ans: D. Increase in force =
2(120cos(55)) – 2(100(cos(65)) = 53N

16 – Ans: B. Internal energy of a system
is the random energy of the atoms of the system. It is the sum of
the potential and kinetic energies due to the random motion of
the atoms. Internal energy is a property of the system itself. So, it cannot be
“the amount of heat supplied to the system”.

33 - Ans: C.
The diagram shows an electric circuit in which the resistance of the external resistor is 2R and the internal resistance of the source is R.
34 – Ans: B. D is an obvious
reaction but when current is worked out for the 2 lamps it is found to be the
same for both. Lamp 1: 240V, 60W. I=60/240=0.25A. Lamp 2: 10V, 2.5W. I=2.5/10=0.25A
