1. Forces and Resultant Force | 力与合力
A car engine provides a driving force of 500 N forwards. Friction and air resistance together produce a total backward force of 200 N. Calculate the resultant force and state the direction of the car's acceleration.
一辆汽车发动机提供 500 N 的向前驱动力。摩擦力和空气阻力共同产生 200 N 的向后总阻力。计算合力并说明汽车加速的方向。
The resultant force is found by subtracting forces that act in opposite directions. A forward force is positive and a backward force is negative, or you can simply subtract the smaller from the larger. Here, 500 N forwards minus 200 N backwards gives 300 N forwards. According to Newton's second law, an unbalanced resultant force causes the object to accelerate in the direction of the resultant force. Therefore the car accelerates forward.
合力通过将相反方向的力相减求得。可以规定前向力为正、后向力为负，或者直接用大减小。这里 500 N 向前减去 200 N 向后得到 300 N 向前。根据牛顿第二定律，不平衡的合力会使物体沿合力的方向加速。所以汽车向前加速。
Resultant force = 500 N – 200 N = 300 N forwards
2. Speed and Distance-Time Graphs | 速度和距离-时间图
A horse travels 600 m in 120 s. Later it moves a further 400 m in 80 s. Plot a distance-time graph for the journey and calculate the horse's speed during the first section.
一匹马用 120 s 行进 600 m。之后又用 80 s 前进了 400 m。请画出这段行程的距离-时间图，并计算第一阶段的速度。
egment shows the speed. For the first section, speed = distance ÷ time = 600 m ÷ 120 s = 5 m/s. The steeper the line, the greater the speed. A horizontal line would indicate the object is stationary.
画图时，时间(s)作为 x 轴，距离(m)作为 y 轴。描点：(0,0)、(120,600)、(200,1000)。每段直线的斜率表示速度。第一阶段的速度 = 距离 ÷ 时间 = 600 m ÷ 120 s = 5 m/s。线段越陡速度越大。如果出现水平线段，说明物体静止。
3. Energy Stores and Transfers | 能量储存与转移
Describe the energy transfers that take place when a battery-powered torch is switched on. Name all the forms of energy involved.
描述用电池驱动的手电筒被打开时发生的能量转移，并说出所涉及的所有能量形式。
The chemical energy store in the battery decreases. This energy is transferred electrically through the circuit to the LED bulb. In the bulb, the electrical energy is converted into light energy (useful output) and thermal energy (heat, wasted). No energy is lost; it is conserved. The total energy input equals the total energy outputs.
电池中的化学能储存减少。这些能量通过电路以电能的途径传递到 LED 灯泡。在灯泡中，电能转化为光能（有用输出）和热能（热，为耗散的能量）。能量没有消失，它是守恒的。输入的总能量等于输出的总能量。
Chemical energy → Electrical energy → Light energy + Thermal energy
4. Series and Parallel Circuits | 串联与并联电路
In a series circuit containing three identical bulbs, the current is 0.2 A. One bulb is then removed and the gap is closed with a wire. Explain what happens to the brightness of the remaining bulbs and the current.
在一个由三盏相同灯泡组成的串联电路中，电流为 0.2 A。将其中一盏灯泡取下并用导线闭合缺口。解释其余灯泡的亮度和电流会如何变化。
In a series circuit, components share the total resistance. Removing a bulb and replacing it with a wire reduces the total resistance of the circuit. Since the battery voltage stays the same, a lower resistance causes a larger current to flow. The two remaining bulbs now receive a higher current and become brighter. However, if the current exceeds the bulbs' rating, they could overheat. This shows how resistance affects current.
在串联电路中，各元件分担总电阻。取下一盏灯泡并用导线代替会降低电路的总电阻。由于电池电压不变，电阻降低会使更大的电流通过。剩余的两盏灯泡现在获得更大的电流，因此变得更亮。然而，如果电流超过灯泡的额定值，它们可能过热。这说明了电阻如何影响电流。
5. Magnetism and Field Lines | 磁性与磁场线
Draw the magnetic field pattern around a single bar magnet. Mark the north and south poles, and show the direction of the field lines. Explain how you could observe this pattern using iron filings.
画出一根条形磁铁周围的磁场图案。标出北极和南极，并显示磁场线的方向。解释如何用铁屑观察到这一图案。
Field lines emerge from the north pole, curve through the air and enter the south pole. Inside the magnet they continue from south to north, forming closed loops. Arrows on the lines point from north to south outside the magnet. To observe the pattern, place a sheet of paper over the magnet and sprinkle iron filings on it. Gentle tapping aligns the filings along the field lines, revealing the pattern.
磁场线从北极出发，在空气中弯曲并进入南极。在磁铁内部它们从南极延续到北极，形成闭合的环路。磁铁外部线上箭头方向为从北极指向南极。要观察该图案，可将一张纸盖在磁铁上并撒上铁屑。轻轻敲击纸张，铁屑就会沿磁场线排列，显示出图案。
6. Sound Waves and Echoes | 声波与回声
A student shouts toward a cliff and hears the echo after 0.8 s. The speed of sound in air is 340 m/s. Calculate the distance of the cliff from the student.
一名学生对着悬崖呼喊，0.8 s 后听到回声。空气中的声速为 340 m/s。计算悬崖距离学生有多远。
he sound: speed × time = 340 m/s × 0.8 s = 272 m. This is the round-trip distance. The one-way distance is half of this: 272 m ÷ 2 = 136 m. So the cliff is 136 m away.
声音从学生传到悬崖再返回，在 0.8 s 内经过的路程是两倍距离。先计算声音总共走过的距离：速度 × 时间 = 340 m/s × 0.8 s = 272 m。这是往返的总距离。单程距离为其一半：272 m ÷ 2 = 136 m。因此悬崖距离学生 136 m。
Total distance = 340 × 0.8 = 272 m → Cliff distance = 136 m
7. Reflection of Light | 光的反射
A ray of light strikes a plane mirror at an angle of incidence of 35°. State the angle of reflection. Sketch the diagram and label the normal, incident ray and reflected ray.
一束光线以 35° 的入射角射到平面镜上。说出反射角的大小。画出简图并标明法线、入射光线和反射光线。
According to the law of reflection, the angle of incidence equals the angle of reflection. Both angles are measured between the ray and the normal (the dotted line at 90° to the mirror surface). Therefore, if the angle of incidence is 35°, the angle of reflection is also 35°. The incident ray, reflected ray and normal all lie in the same plane.
根据反射定律，入射角等于反射角。两个角都是从光线到法线（与镜面成 90° 的虚线）的夹角。因此，如果入射角是 35°，反射角也是 35°。入射光线、反射光线和法线都在同一平面内。
8. The Solar System | 太阳系
List the planets in order from the Sun. Explain the difference between rotation and revolution, and describe which motion causes day and night on Earth.
按离太阳由近及远的顺序列出八大行星。解释自转与公转的区别，并说明哪种运动造成了地球上的昼夜交替。
The order is: Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune. Rotation is the spinning of a planet on its axis, which gives us day and night; one full rotation takes about 24 hours on Earth. Revolution is the orbiting of a planet around the Sun, which defines a year; Earth’s revolution takes roughly 365.25 days. Day and night are caused by rotation.
八大行星顺序为：水星、金星、地球、火星、木星、土星、天王星、海王星。自转是行星绕自身轴线旋转，它造成了昼夜交替；地球上自转一周约需 24 小时。公转是行星绕太阳运行，它决定了一年的长度；地球公转周期约为 365.25 天。昼夜交替是由自转引起的。
9. Density | 密度
m³ and state whether the block will float or sink in water (density of water = 1.0 g/cm³).
一块金属的质量为 450 g，体积为 60 cm³。计算其密度（单位为 g/cm³），并说明该物块会浮在水上还是沉入水中（水的密度为 1.0 g/cm³）。
f the metal (7.5 g/cm³) is much greater than the density of water (1.0 g/cm³), the block will sink. Only objects with a density lower than the fluid can float.
密度等于质量除以体积。使用公式：ρ = m / V。这里 ρ = 450 g ÷ 60 cm³ = 7.5 g/cm³。由于该金属的密度（7.5 g/cm³）远大于水的密度（1.0 g/cm³），物块会下沉。只有密度比流体小的物体才能浮起。
ρ = m ÷ V = 450 ÷ 60 = 7.5 g/cm³
10. Practical Skills: Hooke's Law | 实验技能：胡克定律
In a spring investigation, students record the following data for force and extension. (a) Plot a graph of force vs extension. (b) Identify the anomalous result. (c) State the relationship shown by the correctly plotted points.
在一次弹簧探究实验中，学生记录了下表所示的力与伸长量数据。(a) 画出力-伸长量的关系图。(b) 指出异常结果。(c) 说明正确描点的数据所呈现的关系。
| Force (N) | Extension (cm) |
|---|---|
| 0 | 0 |
| 2 | 4.0 |
| 4 | 8.2 |
| 6 | 11.7 |
| 8 | 16.0 |
| 10 | 20.3 |
Plotting these points shows that most lie close to a straight line passing through the origin. The data point for 4 N (8.2 cm) looks slightly off the expected line; when a smooth best-fit line is drawn, this point falls farther from the line than the others and is therefore the anomalous result. The correct trend shows that extension is directly proportional to force, which is Hooke's Law. This holds until the spring's elastic limit.
将这些数据点描出后可以看到，大部分点都分布在一条经过原点的直线附近。4 N 对应的点（8.2 cm）略微偏离预期的直线；作出一条平滑的最佳拟合线时，该点比其他点离直线更远，因此是异常结果。正确的趋势表明伸长量与力成正比，这就是胡克定律。该规律在达到弹簧的弹性极限之前成立。
Extension ∝ Force (up to the elastic limit)
11. Electrical Conductors and Insulators | 导体与绝缘体
A student builds a simple circuit to test materials. She replaces a copper wire with: a graphite rod, a plastic ruler, a steel nail and a glass rod. For each, state whether the bulb lights and explain why.
一名学生搭建了一个简单电路来测试材料。她先后用石墨棒、塑料尺、钢钉和玻璃棒代替铜导线。针对每种材料，说明灯泡是否会亮并解释原因。
Graphite is a form of carbon and conducts electricity, though not as well as metals; the bulb will light, perhaps dimly. Plastic is an insulator; the bulb will not light. Steel is a metal and a good conductor; the bulb will light brightly. Glass is an insulator under normal conditions, so the bulb will not light. The experiment shows that only materials with free-moving charges (conductors) allow current to flow.
石墨是碳的一种形式，可以导电，尽管不如金属；灯泡会亮，可能较暗。塑料是绝缘体，灯泡不会亮。钢是金属，属于良导体，灯泡会明亮发光。玻璃在通常条件下是绝缘体，灯泡不会亮。该实验表明只有拥有可自由移动电荷的材料（导体）才允许电流通过。
12. Interpreting Graphs and Scientific Tables | 解读图表与科学表格
The table shows the temperature of a beaker of water heated for 10 minutes. (a) Plot a line graph. (b) During which two-minute interval did the temperature rise fastest? (c) Predict the temperature at 11 minutes if heating continues at the same rate.
表格显示了一烧杯水在 10 分钟内被加热的温度变化。(a) 画出一条折线图。(b) 在哪一个两分钟间隔内温度上升最快？(c) 如果继续以相同的速率加热，预测第 11 分钟时的温度。
| Time (min) | Temperature (°C) |
|---|---|
| 0 | 20 |
| 2 | 32 |
| 4 | 44 |
| 6 | 54 |
| 8 | 62 |
| 10 | 68 |
Calculate the temperature change in each interval: 0–2 min: 12 °C, 2–4 min: 12 °C, 4–6 min: 10 °C, 6–8 min: 8 °C, 8–10 min: 6 °C. The fastest rise occurred in the first two intervals, with a rise of 12 °C each. The graph shows a curve that is steepest at the start, indicating the highest rate of energy transfer when the temperature difference between heater and water is largest. For prediction, use the average rate of the last few minutes or extend the best-fit line; an approximate reading would be around 71 °C, assuming a similar rate.
计算每段时间的温度变化：0–2 分钟：12 °C，2–4 分钟：12 °C，4–6 分钟：10 °C，6–8 分钟：8 °C，8–10 分钟：6 °C。最快的升温出现在前两个间隔，每段上升 12 °C。该图显示一条开始时最陡的曲线，说明当加热器与水之间的温差最大时，能量转移的速率最高。预测时，可根据最后几分钟的平均速率或延长最佳拟合线；若保持相似的速率，温度大约在 71 °C 左右。
Fastest rise: 0–4 minutes, ΔT = 24 °C
