1. Forces and Free-body Diagrams | 力和受力分析
Question: ' Draw the free-body diagram and calculate the friction force needed to keep it stationary.' solve weight into components: perpendicular = W cos 20°, parallel = W sin 20°. For equilibrium, friction balances the downslope component, so f = 15 N × sin 20° = 15 N × 0.342 ≈ 5.13 N. Many students incorrectly assumed the normal reaction equals the weight; however, N equals W cos 20°, not W. Mastering force resolution is fundamental for later topics such as moments and structures.
题目：“一本重15 N的书静置在倾角20°的桌面上。画出受力图，并计算维持静止所需的摩擦力。”解题时，需标出所有作用力：重力W垂直向下，法向反力N垂直于斜面，摩擦力f沿斜面向上。将重力分解为垂直斜面分量 W cos 20° 和平行斜面分量 W sin 20°。根据平衡条件，摩擦力等于下滑分力，所以 f = 15 N × sin 20° = 15 N × 0.342 ≈ 5.13 N。很多学生误认为法向反力等于重力，实际上N等于W cos 20°。掌握力的分解是学习力矩与结构等后续内容的基础。
2. Material Properties and Selection | 材料特性与选材
A typical test question: 'A bicycle frame must be strong, lightweight and resist corrosion. Compare steel and aluminium alloy and recommend a choice.' Steel offers high tensile strength and stiffness but is dense and prone to rust without coating. Aluminium alloy is significantly lighter, forms a protective oxide layer, and has adequate toughness for modern frames, though it costs more and is trickier to weld. The best choice depends on context: aluminium is favoured for racing bikes due to weight savings, while steel remains common for durability and lower cost. Students need to link properties such as yield strength, density and corrosion resistance to design requirements. The mock test also presented stress–strain curves and asked candidates to distinguish ductile from brittle behaviour.
典型考题：“自行车车架必须坚固、轻便且耐腐蚀。比较钢和铝合金并给出选用建议。”钢的抗拉强度和刚度高，但密度大且若无涂层易生锈。铝合金重量轻得多，能自然形成保护性氧化膜，韧性也足以满足现代车架要求，但成本较高且焊接难度大。理想选择要视用途而定：竞赛自行车倾向铝合金以减重，而钢依然因耐用和成本用于旅行车。学生需把屈服强度、密度和耐腐蚀性等特性与设计需求挂钩。模拟卷还给出了应力–应变曲线，要求识别延性与脆性材料。
3. Simple Machines and Mechanical Advantage | 简单机械与机械效益
Mock question: ' Calculate the ideal mechanical advantage (MA) and the effort required, ignoring friction.' to 120 N, giving an actual MA = 400 N / 120 N ≈ 3.33 and an efficiency of (3.33 / 4) × 100% ≈ 83.3% only on geometry. The question also reinforces work input = work output in ideal systems.
模拟题：“用一根杠杆提升400 N的重物，施力臂长1.2 m，重臂长0.3 m。计算理想机械效益 (MA) 和忽略摩擦时所需的施加力。”杠杆的理想 MA = 施力臂 / 重臂 = 1.2 m / 0.3 m = 4，理想施加力 = 400 N / 4 = 100 N。现实中摩擦可能使施加力增至120 N，实际 MA = 400 N / 120 N ≈ 3.33，效率 = (3.33 / 4) × 100% ≈ 83.3%。学生常将 MA 与速度比 (VR) 混淆，后者只由机械尺寸决定。该题也强化了理想系统中输入功等于输出功的概念。
4. Moments and Equilibrium | 力矩与平衡
Question: ' N load sits at the right end. What upward force at the left end holds the beam horizontal?' First, take moments about the pivot. The beam' g an additional clockwise moment of 150 N × 2 m = 300 Nm. Total clockwise moment = 400 Nm. The unknown force F at the left end, 1 m from the pivot, produces an anticlockwise moment F × 1 m. For equilibrium, F × 1 = 400, so F = 400 N. A common oversight is forgetting the beam's own weight.
题目：“一根长3 m、自重200 N的均匀梁，在距左端1 m处铰支。右端放置150 N的荷载。左端需要多大的向上力才能保持梁水平？”取支点力矩，梁重作用于中心，在支点右侧0.5 m处，产生顺时针力矩 200 N × 0.5 m = 100 Nm；右端荷载距支点2 m，产生顺时针力矩 150 N × 2 m = 300 Nm；总顺时针力矩 = 400 Nm。左端未知力F距支点1 m，产生逆时针力矩 F × 1 m。平衡时 F = 400 N。常见疏漏是忽视梁自身的重量。
5. Introduction to Electronic Components | 电子元件入门
symbol-matching: identify resistor, LED, capacitor, transistor and diode. One item asked, 'Which component allows current in only one direction and lights up when forward-biased?' lel plates) stores charge; a diode (triangle with bar) conducts one way; an LED is a light‑ heir applications. Key units are ohm (Ω), farad (F) and ampere (A). Additionally, a colour‑code question required reading a resistor: yellow‑violet‑brown → 470 Ω ±5%.
单元测试包含符号匹配题：辨识电阻、LED、电容、晶体管和二极管。其中一题问道：“哪种元件只允许电流单向通过，且正向偏置时会发光？”正确答案是LED。电阻（锯齿线）限制电流，电容（平行板）储存电荷，二极管（三角加横杠）单向导电，LED则是发光二极管。学生还需辨认热敏电阻、光敏电阻和可变电阻的符号及用途。关键单位有欧姆 (Ω)、法拉 (F) 和安培 (A)。此外，卷中一道色码题要求读出电阻值：黄‑紫‑棕 → 470 Ω ±5%。
6. Ohm's Law and Basic Circuits | 欧姆定律与基本电路
A problem: 'A 12 V battery is connected to two series resistors, 6 Ω and 3 Ω. Find the total current and the voltage across each resistor.' Total resistance in series Rtotal 3 ≈ 4 V. The sum 8 V + 4 V = 12 V matches the supply. Many students forget that current is
