The exact mathematics of the CRC is outside the scope of the IPT Course. If you have a copy of Samuel Davis' book then you can find a few examples on pages 253-256. There are many CRC standards, but they all require a "generator polynomial" which is just a binary number. The sender and the...

Make sure you are familiar with the basic distinction between a pictorial drawing and an orthogonal (orthographic) drawing. Remember that hidden lines are NOT to show on pictorial drawing. Make sure you are familiar with AS1100 rules for dimensioning orthogonal drawings. Make sure you are...

It is another form of the relation v2=u2+2as. It is only considering the vertical component of velocity vy = v sin θ You should be able to derive this relation easily.

It's all about the rate of change of flux (see Faraday's Law). And don't forget - a falling flux and an increasing flux both generate an electric field potential.

Parity bit is the least accurate form of error checking, but it can be performed extremely fast in hardware and therefore it has an important place in data transmission. Parity bit is added to the data packet to ensure that there is an even number of ones in the packet. It can be fooled by a...

Yes, there is a method to reading a Chemistry question, just like there is a method to writing the answer to a Chemistry question. The first thing you have to un-learn is the Advanced English approach! You read a novel or a poem in whole language, the meaning is only revealed after you have read...

Question 26(a) is examining Year 11 Physics content, namely the inverse square law of radiation intensity. Intensity is measured in units of watts per square metre per steradian (solid angle). If the number of square metres of the solar panel is constant, then power is proportional to...

This question is examining your understanding of the binding energy in the nucleus and its connection to the mass defect. The energy released in step X is given in the body of the question, 1.20 MeV For a 3-mark question, the marking scheme would probably be: 1 mark for proposing a valid reason...

Whoever wrote that question about properties of water waves, they should be banned. "Dispersion" is not caused by "waves bending around the edges of an object". That is a description of diffraction. "Superposition" is not caused by "waves bending near an object". Dispersion is a change in the...

The answer is (C). This question has been answered before. See here: https://www.boredofstudies.org/threads/physics-revision-for-prelims-stuck-on-a-mod-1-q-%F0%9F%92%80.409710/#post-7578030

You are correct, the answer is (C). In all questions regarding relative velocities, if you are asked to find the velocity of A relative to a moving frame of reference B, rather that a stationary frame of reference, you must subtract the motion of the moving frame of reference.

The correct answer is (C). Galvanometer 'X' is normally stationary. In normal operation if a positive potential is applied to the + terminal of a galvanometer the armature/needle deflects clockwise to the right (an application of the motor effect). Now if instead the body of galvanometer 'X' is...

Evaporite minerals are sedimentary deposits that have precipitated from hot aqueous solutions. Therefore they almost invariably contain some water of crystallisation. For example, a very common evaporite mineral is hydrated gypsum, whose chemical formula is CaSO4. 2H2O. Therefore I would include...

To understand why the position of equilibrium does not correspond to equal molar concentrations of products and reactants, this could only occur if the rates of the forward and reverse reactions are exactly matched at the equimolar concentrations. This almost never occurs. One reaction is...

For a solution to be saturated, and at equilibrium, by definition there must be some excess solid solute. It is not the amounts or the concentrations of solid and dissolved solute that are the same. In fact, we can't really talk about a concentration value for a crystalline solid. All you need...

"In the beginning God created the heaven and the Earth. And the Earth was without form, and void. and darkness was upon the face of the deep. "And God said Let the waters under the heaven be gathered together unto one place; and let the dry land appear, and it was so. "And God called the dry...

There is no single explanation for how a heterogeneous catalyst works. A heterogeneous catalyst is usually a solid (or it could sometimes be an immiscible liquid) but it presents a surface to the reactants that accelerates the rate of reaction. A good example would be a Ziegler-Natta catalyst...

The net reaction is like a hypothesis- I'm asking this question at the beginning with a chemical equation, "Can mercury be oxidised to mercury 2+ ions and copper 2+ ions be reduced to copper in a spontaneous reaction?" The answer is, "No."

All electrode potentials are defined as reduction potentials. The reduction potential of Cu2+ to Cu(s) Eo is 0.34 V and the reduction potential of Hg2+ to Hg(l) Eo is 0.85V. The reaction is non-spontaneous, mercury metal will not displace copper ions from a solution of copper sulfate. Here is...
