Here are the solutions to the requested questions from the model paper.

Section B

Q.1:

  1. Calculate the average value for each group.

    For Group A:

    AverageA=11.7 V+11.6 V+11.8 V3=35.1 V3=11.7 V\text{Average}_A = \frac{11.7 \text{ V} + 11.6 \text{ V} + 11.8 \text{ V}}{3} = \frac{35.1 \text{ V}}{3} = 11.7 \text{ V}

    For Group B:

    AverageB=12.1 V+12.1 V+12.1 V3=36.3 V3=12.1 V\text{Average}_B = \frac{12.1 \text{ V} + 12.1 \text{ V} + 12.1 \text{ V}}{3} = \frac{36.3 \text{ V}}{3} = 12.1 \text{ V}
  2. Compare accuracy (closeness to the accepted value of 12.0 V12.0 \text{ V}).

    Group A's average (11.7 V11.7 \text{ V}) is 0.3 V0.3 \text{ V} away from 12.0 V12.0 \text{ V}.
    Group B's average (12.1 V12.1 \text{ V}) is 0.1 V0.1 \text{ V} away from 12.0 V12.0 \text{ V}.
    Group B is more accurate because its average value is closer to the accepted value.

  3. Compare precision (closeness of measurements to each other).

    For Group A, the measurements range from 11.6 V11.6 \text{ V} to 11.8 V11.8 \text{ V}.
    For Group B, all measurements are 12.1 V12.1 \text{ V}.
    Group B is more precise because its measurements are identical, indicating high reproducibility.

    Q.2:

    • SI Base Units:
      • (a) ampere (unit of electric current)
      • (b) mole (unit of amount of substance)
    • Derived Units:
      • (c) cubic meter (unit of volume, derived from length: m3\text{m}^3)
      • (d) pascal (unit of pressure, derived from force and area: N/m2\text{N/m}^2)

    Q.3:

    • Definition of Torque: Torque is the rotational equivalent of force. It is a measure of the force that can cause an object to rotate about an axis.
    • Mathematical Expression: τ=rFsin⁡θ\tau = r F \sin\theta where τ\tau is torque, rr is the distance from the pivot to the point where the force is applied, FF is the magnitude of the force, and θ\theta is the angle between the force vector and the lever arm.
    • Angle for Maximum Torque: Torque is maximum when sin⁡θ=1\sin\theta = 1, which occurs at θ=90∘\theta = \boxed{90^\circ}.
    • Angle for Zero Torque: Torque is zero when sin⁡θ=0\sin\theta = 0, which occurs at θ=0∘ or 180∘\theta = \boxed{0^\circ \text{ or } 180^\circ}.

    Q.4:

  4. State the condition for balance on a seesaw.

    For the seesaw to be balanced, the clockwise torque must
