- process where solid changes to gas or gas

to solid without going through the liquid. - e.g. iodine, dry ice, ammonium chloride

and naphthalene. 5. Diffusion

- can occur because particles move into the space in between the particles of solids,

liquids and gases. - eg: when 50 3cm of ethanol and 50 3cm of

distilled water are mixed, only 98 3cm of mixture are obtained. This is because the ethanol and water particles occupy each other spaces between the particles.

PQ

- The particles release heat. The kinetic energy decrease and the temperature drop.

BC - Melting point (fix temperature when solid becomes liquid)

- The solid particles have enough energy to break away from the rest. The temperature does not rise because the energy absorbed is used to break the force of attraction between the solid particles to form liquid particles.

QR - Condensation point - The gas particles lose energy and

become nearer to form liquid. The temperature does not drop because the energy is released to increase the force of attraction between the gas particles to form liquid particles.

CD SPM 05

MOMENTUM Momentum = mass × velocity � Momentum = m × v

= kg × ms-1

a. i. ( momentum ↑ = mass ↑ × velocity ) Mass increase � momentum increase

ii. ( momentum ↑ = mass × velocity ↑ ) Velocity increase � momentum increase

iii. Hypothesis The bigger the mass / velocity, the greater the momentum.

b. Conservation of momentum i. During collision the total momentum of

the system remains unchanged. ii. Total momentum = Total momentum

before collision after collision

c. Types of collisions i. Inelastic collision ( bodies stick together

after collision)

m1u1 + m2 u2 = (m1 + m2)v

ii. Elastic collision (bodies separate after collision)

m1u1 + m2 u2 = m1v1 + m2v2

d. Applications of Momentum

i. Pile driver (has high momentum due to big mass)

ii. Bullet fired from a gun (has high momentum due to high velocity)

iii. Steam roller ( has high momentum due to big mass)

iv. Rocket - The exhaust gases from the combustion

chamber of a rocket escape from the back with great force.

- This creates a great momentum backwards.

- This backward momentum creates an equally big forward momentum, which pushes the rocket forward (This uses the principle that every action creates an equal and opposite direction)

e. Safety Measures in Motor Vehicles i. Force = rate of change of momentum

Motion of Vehicle in Water

Type Picture Characteristic Ship

- A small ship may be driven by a diesel engine. - A large ship is driven by a steam turbine. - In a steam turbine, steam under high pressure pushes

the fixed blades and rotates the drive shaft. - The rotating drive shaft spins the propeller of the

ship. When the propeller spins and pushes the water backwards, a forward momentum of equal force is produced. This forward momentum or thrust pushes the ship forward.

- A ship also has a rudder. This rudder controls the direction of motion of the ship.

Hovercraft

- A hovercraft moves on a cushion of air on the surface of the sea.

- A powerful engine produces a cushion of air between the surface of the sea and the bottom of the hovercraft. This reduces greatly the friction between the water and the bottom of the hovercraft. This enables the hovercraft to move forward speedily.

- The large fans on top of the hovercraft produce a strong backward wind. This creates an equally strong forward momentum which pushes the hovercraft forward.

Hydrofoil

- A hydrofoil has special wing-shaped structures, called hydrofoils, attached to the lower surface.

- When the boat moves forward at a high speed, the hydrofoils below the boat are lifted slightly above the surface of the sea.

- This decreases the friction between the surface of the sea and the bottom of the boat.

- With less friction, the boat is able to travel much faster.

2. Streamlined shape a. Enable object to move easily in water with little resistance (reduce friction) b. eg : fish , ship, torpedo and etc.

Archimedes’ Principle SPM 12

Upthrust force = weight of the object = weight of water displaced = mg = pvg

Upthrust = weight – weight

on air in water = 0.8 – 0.6 = 0.2N

Note: Denser water such as seawater which contain salt produce bigger upthrust. The denser the water, the greater the upthrust / the lighter the object float. Application of Archimedes’ Principle 1. Plimsoll line

- show how much the ship can be safety loaded when sailing in the sea 2. Submarine SPM 08

- A submarine has ballast tanks. The submarine becomes dense and submerged in the sea when the ballast tanks are filled with the sea water.

- The submarine becomes less dense and rises to the surface when the ballast tanks are emptied.

Picture Characteristics

Aircraft

- When an aircraft is in flight, the shape of its wings causes air to move faster above the wings than below the wings. This creates slower pressure above the wings. Air pushing upwards on the wings produces a lift (upward force).

- When an aircraft is flying with a uniform velocity at affixed height, then:

Hot air balloon

- The hot air inside the balloon is less dense than the atmospheric air.

- The weight of air displaced by the balloon is heavier than the weight of the balloon and its hot air.

How Jet Engine Work

Structure of a jet engine

i. Air is sucked into the compressor ii. The compressor compresses the air into very hot air iii. In the combustion chamber the kerosene fuel is

sprayed into the hot air iv. The mixture of hot air and fuel will burn with

explosive force and produce a great backward momentum.

v. According to conservation of momentum an equal forward momentum is produced and pushes the jet forward.

vi. A jet plane uses oxygen from the atmosphere and can’t fly beyond the atmosphere. It never carries its own supply of oxygen.

Rocket Engine

Structure of a rocket engine

i. A rocket carries liquid hydrogen and liquid oxygen. ii. They are burned with great explosive force in the

combustion chamber. iii. Hot exhaust gases produce a great momentum

downward. iv. According to the conservation of momentum, this

produces an equal great momentum upward which push the rocket upwards.

v. Rocket can move beyond the atmosphere because it carries its own supply of fuel and oxygen.

vi. A rocket travels with increasing acceleration because - air resistance decreases with high and zero at

outerspace.

Thrust = drag Lift = weight

- gravitational attraction decrease with height. - the rocket’s mass decrease as the rocket’s body is

shedded by stages Application of Bernoulli’s Principle SPM 10 1. Aerofoil

i. The high speed of air moving above the aerofoil produces a low pressure. ii. The slower speed of air moving below the aerofoil produces higher pressure. iii. The differentiate of pressure cause an uplift force on the aerofoil.

2. Other apparatus using Bernoulli’s Principle SPM 10 a. Bunsen burner b. Filter pump c. Insecticide spray

Bernoulli’s Principle - States that the pressure decreases when the speed of fluid / gas increases.

Bernoulli Effects

Diagram Activity and observation Reason

Blow hard across the surface of a sheet of paper held horizontally in front of the mouth. This causes the paper to rise.

The air moving across the top of the paper at a fast speed causes a region of low air pressure above the paper. Atmospheric pressure below the paper pushes the paper upwards.

Blow air at a fast speed down the filter funnel. The ping pong ball does not fall.

The air pressure in the space above the ball is lowered because of the fast flowing air. Atmospheric pressure which is greater pushes up the ball and supports it.

Hang a ping pong or polystyrene ball near a fast stream of water from a tap. The ball is attracted towards the water.

The fast moving stream of water produces a region of low air pressure around it. Atmospheric pressure being greater, pushes the ball towards the water.
