      Hi

      Hope this helps.
      [quote]Question : 14
      Can someone explain to me on the co relation between the three states in relation to room temperature as illustrated in the questions.[/quote]Are we looking at the same question? There is no mention of relationship to room temperature. Solid A and B have the same mass and volume. Therefore option (1) is correct.
      [quote]May I just check, question 20,why is the answer not (1),I cant seem to demostrate the 360 rotation movement to my girl...thanks. [/quote]Shoulders and hips have ball and socket joints. They allow movement in all directions.
      How to demonstrate? I wouldn’t suggest any unless you have the flexibility of a gymnast. As for me, my old rusty bones will crack if I attempt to do it.
      [quote]Another question, number 13
      When syringe with liquid, the nozzle is covered, air compressed and air inside reduced and liquid remained the same.
      Whereas for a inflated ball, we draw out 15cm cube of air with a syringe ,why is the air within the ball remain unchange? [/quote]Air has no definite shape and volume. When a gas is placed in a container, it takes the shape of the container that holds it.
      In the case of the syringe, when we push the plunger , the air is compressed to take a smaller volume. The volume of water remains the same as water cannot be compressed.
      As for the ball, the remaining air spreads out to occupy a bigger space when we draw out a 15 cubic centimetres from it.

        Hi Tianzhu


        Thanks so much for the answers and you are so jovial...

        I guess age is catching up, and am looking at the wrong question, it should be question 11 instead of 14.

        Can someone explain to me on the co relation between the three states in relation to room temperature as illustrated in the questions.[/quote]
        Are we looking at the same question? There is no mention of relationship to room temperature.


        Thanks for replying...

              Solid state - Temperature below Melting point

              Liquid state - Temperature between Melting point and Boiling point

              Gaseous state - Temperature above Boiling point.

              Room temperature is below 30 degree C (about 28 degree C)

              Based on above, P, Q, R and S are Liquid, Liquid, Gas and Solid respectively at room temperature. Hence answer is (1).

                For shoulder, you can demonstrate by swinging the arm round the shoulder in a circle.

                Instead of demonstrating with hips, may be you can show her by rotating your neck SLOWLY in clockwise or anticlockwise direction.

                  Hi Tang


                  Thanks for the pointers.

                  Do you mind link up how this :melting point (deg cel) Boiling point(deg cel)
                  p 0 85
                  q -30 110
                  r -40 15
                  s 80 200

                  I am not able to explain to my girl based on the info you gave...maybe you can tell me how?thanks

                      Hi


                      At melting point, a substance changes from a solid to a liquid.
                      At boiling point, a substance changes from liquid to a gas.

                      Try to understand the concept using water before attempting to answer Q11.
                      Water melts at 0 degrees C and boils at 100 degrees C. At melting point, it changes from ice(solid) to water (liquid), at boiling point , it changes into from water(liquid) to steam(gas)

                      Now try Q11, it’s alright to assume room temperature as any figures from 25 degrees C to 28 degrees C.
                      Play around and you should get
                      P ----- liquid
                      Q ----- liquid
                      R ----- gas
                      S ------solid

                      The answer is option(1)

                        I was just wondering if X (wrist joint) should have been one of the options in the answer. When we play badminton/hockey we always use the rotation of our wrist to hit the shuttlecock/dribble with the ball.

                        Pls advise. Thanks.
