AI Thread Summary
A student is seeking difficult practice questions for a Grade 12 unit test on Gravitational and Electric Fields, specifically focusing on gravitational force, gravitational field strength, orbits, Coulomb's law, and electric field strength in both 1D and 2D. They express regret for not searching for questions earlier and have already completed their notes and homework. Other participants suggest that earlier posting could have garnered more responses while wishing the student good luck. The discussion highlights the importance of timely preparation for tests. Engaging with peers for additional resources can enhance understanding of complex physics concepts.

Hey all, I have a unit test tomorrow on Gravitational and Electric Fields. If you have any good practice questions for Grade 12 University level please leave them below! :)

In my class we've learned gravitational force, gravitational field strength and orbits (omit geosynchronous) as well as Coulomb's law and electric-static force and electric field strength.

I am looking for difficult questions in 1D and 2D! Thank You!

I think it might have been a good idea to look for appropriate questions a bit sooner than the night before the quiz.
 
i went through all my notes and did all the homework questions so I'm just looking for something else to do
 
OK, that's very good. Just saying, you might have gotten more response if you had posted earlier but I understand your situation. Good luck.

I multiplied the values first without the error limit. Got 19.38. rounded it off to 2 significant figures since the given data has 2 significant figures. So = 19. For error I used the above formula. It comes out about 1.48. Now my question is. Should I write the answer as 19±1.5 (rounding 1.48 to 2 significant figures) OR should I write it as 19±1. So in short, should the error have same number of significant figures as the mean value or should it have the same number of decimal places as...
Thread 'Collision of a bullet on a rod-string system: query'
In this question, I have a question. I am NOT trying to solve it, but it is just a conceptual question. Consider the point on the rod, which connects the string and the rod. My question: just before and after the collision, is ANGULAR momentum CONSERVED about this point? Lets call the point which connects the string and rod as P. Why am I asking this? : it is clear from the scenario that the point of concern, which connects the string and the rod, moves in a circular path due to the string...
Thread 'A cylinder connected to a hanging mass'
Let's declare that for the cylinder, mass = M = 10 kg Radius = R = 4 m For the wall and the floor, Friction coeff = ##\mu## = 0.5 For the hanging mass, mass = m = 11 kg First, we divide the force according to their respective plane (x and y thing, correct me if I'm wrong) and according to which, cylinder or the hanging mass, they're working on. Force on the hanging mass $$mg - T = ma$$ Force(Cylinder) on y $$N_f + f_w - Mg = 0$$ Force(Cylinder) on x $$T + f_f - N_w = Ma$$ There's also...
