2019年6月的AQA AS物理Unit 5试卷考查热物理、核物理和自选选修专题。试卷旨在考查关键定义的记忆以及在陌生情境中应用方程的能力。题型包括结构化计算题、简答题、实验题和最后的拓展回答题。
1. Exam Overview | 试卷概览
The paper was normally split into two main parts: Section A covered core thermal and nuclear physics, while Section B covered the optional topic you had studied, such as astrophysics, medical physics or applied physics. Understanding the command words was essential: 'state' asks for a short fact, 'show that' requires a clear derivation or substitution, 'explain' needs reasoning, and 'evaluate' needs arguments on both sides.
试卷通常分为两大部分：A部分考查核心热物理与核物理，B部分考查你所学的选修专题，例如天体物理、医学物理或应用物理。理解指令词至关重要：‘state（陈述）’要求简短事实，‘show that（证明）’需要清晰的推导或代入，‘explain（解释）’需要推理，‘evaluate（评估）’需要正反两面论证。
2. Thermal Physics Fundamentals | 热物理基础
Thermal physics centres on internal energy, U, which is the sum of the random kinetic energy of the molecules and their intermolecular potential energy. When a substance is heated, its temperature may rise or it may change state. The two key equations you must be able to select are:
热物理的核心是内能 U，即分子无规则动能与分子间势能之和。当物质被加热时，其温度可能升高，也可能发生状态变化。你必须能够选用以下两个关键方程：
Q = mcΔθ and Q = mL
The first equation applies when the temperature changes by Δθ, where c is the specific heat capacity in J kg⁻¹ K⁻¹. The second applies during a phase change at constant temperature, where L is the specific latent heat in J kg⁻¹. A common exam trap is to use the same equation for both, forgetting that a phase change involves no temperature change.
第一个方程适用于温度变化 Δθ，其中 c 是比热容，单位为 J kg⁻¹ K⁻¹。第二个方程适用于恒温状态变化，其中 L 是比潜热，单位为 J kg⁻¹。常见的考试陷阱是对两种过程使用同一个方程，忘记状态变化时温度不变。
3. Ideal Gas Equation and Kinetic Theory | 理想气体方程与分子运动论
lent form is pV = NkT, where N is the number of molecules and k is the Boltzmann constant.
理想气体满足 pV = nRT，其中 p 为压强，V 为体积，n 为物质的量，R 为摩尔气体常数，T 为以开尔文为单位的热力学温度。等价形式为 pV = NkT，其中 N 为分子数，k 为玻尔兹曼常数。
pV = nRT = NkT
The average translational kinetic energy of a single molecule is (3/2)kT. This leads directly to the root-mean-square speed: for a molecule of mass m, crms = √3kT/m; for a molar mass M, crms = √3RT/M. In exam questions, check whether mass is per molecule or per mole before substituting.
单个分子的平均平动动能为 (3/2)kT。这直接导出方均根速率：对于质量为 m 的分子，crms = √3kT/m；对于摩尔质量 M，crms = √3RT/M。在考试中，先检查所给质量是单个分子还是每摩尔质量再代入。
4. Radioactive Decay and Nuclear Equations | 放射性衰变与核反应方程
Radioactive decay involves alpha (α), beta-minus (β⁻) and gamma (γ) radiation. In nuclear equations, total nucleon number and total charge must be conserved. For example, alpha decay of uranium-238 can be written as:
放射性衰变涉及 α、β⁻ 和 γ 辐射。在核反应方程中，总核子数和总电荷必须守恒。例如，铀-238 的 α 衰变可写为：
²³⁸₉₂U → ²³⁴₉₀Th + ⁴₂He
The exponential decay law is written as N = N₀e–λt ression λ = ln2 / t½. Be careful to use the same time units on both sides of the equation.
指数衰变定律写作 N = N₀e–λt，其中 N₀ 为初始未衰变核数，λ 为衰变常数，t 为时间。活度 A = λN，衰变常数与半衰期 t½ 的关系为 λ = ln2 / t½。注意方程两边的时间单位必须一致。
5. Mass–Energy Equivalence and Binding Energy | 质能等价与结合能
ws that a small mass defect releases a huge amount of energy. The mass defect Δm is the difference between the mass of a nucleus and the sum of the masses of its individual nucleons.
核反应涉及质量变化。著名方程 E = mc² 表明，微小的质量亏损会释放巨大能量。质量亏损 Δm 是原子核质量与组成它的独立核子质量总和之差。
E = mc²
Binding energy is the energy equivalent of the mass defect. The binding energy per nucleon tells us about nuclear stability: a higher value means a more stable nucleus. Fission and fusion both occur because products have a greater binding energy per nucleon than the reactants, so mass is converted into kinetic energy.
结合能是质量亏损对应的能量。每个核子的结合能反映核稳定性：数值越高，原子核越稳定。裂变和聚变之所以放能，是因为产物的每核子结合能大于反应物，因此质量转化为动能。
6. Worked Example: Half-Life Calculation | 例题解析：半衰期计算
Example. th a half-life of 6.0 hours. Calculate: (a) the decay constant in s⁻¹, (b) the initial activity, and (c) the activity after 24 hours.
例题：某放射性样品初始含有 4.0 × 10²⁰ 个原子核，其半衰期为 6.0 小时。计算：(a) 以 s⁻¹ 为单位的衰变常数；(b) 初始活度；(c) 24 小时后的活度。
) The half-life must be converted into seconds: t½ = 6.0 × 3600 = 2.16 × 10⁴ s. Therefore:
(a) 半衰期必须换算为秒：t½ = 6.0 × 3600 = 2.16 × 10⁴ s。因此：
λ = ln2 / t½ = 0.693 / (2.16 × 10⁴) = 3.2 × 10⁻⁵ s⁻¹
(b) The initial activity is A = λN₀:
(b) 初始活度为 A = λN₀：
A = 3.2 × 10⁻⁵ × 4.0 × 10²⁰ = 1.3 × 10¹⁶ Bq
nuclei is divided by 2⁴ = 16. Hence N = 4.0 × 10²⁰ / 16 = 2.5 × 10¹⁹. The activity is now:
(c) 24 小时正好是四个半衰期，因此未衰变核数除以 2⁴ = 16。所以 N = 4.0 × 10²⁰ / 16 = 2.5 × 10¹⁹。此时活度为：
A = 3.2 × 10⁻⁵ × 2.5 × 10¹⁹ = 8.0 × 10¹⁴ Bq
7. Practical Skills: Measuring Specific Heat Capacity | 实验技能：测量比热容
find electrical power P = VI. Heat for a fixed time t, measuring the temperature rise Δθ.
典型实验题要求你用电加热器测定液体的比热容。将质量为 m 的液体放入隔热热量计中，然后用 12 V 加热器加热。测量电流 I 和电压 V
