SECTION B
This section consists of four questions: B1, B2, B3 and B4. Answer any two questions in this section.
B1. This question is in two parts. Part 1 is about electrical circuits and Part 2 (the shorter part) is
about the Carnot Cycle and Entropy.
(a) You are given the apparatus shown below which is also identified by the appropriate circuit
symbol. The 12 V battery has negligible internal resistance.
A V
Draw a circuit diagram showing how this apparatus should be connected so that the current
through the bulb can be measured as the potential difference across the bulb is varied from
zero to 12 V. [4]

(b) The graph below shows the relationship between the current I through a particular filament
lamp and the potential difference V across it.

(i) State whether or not the filament of the lamp obeys Ohm’s law. [1]
.....................................................................
(ii) What is the resistance of the lamp when the potential difference across it is very small? [2]

.....................................................................
(iii) How much power is dissipated in the lamp when the potential difference across it is
12 V? [2]
.....................................................................
.....................................................................
(c) A student connects a filament lamp to a dry battery via a switch. A high resistance voltmeter
connected across the battery reads 12 V when the switch is open. When the switch is closed
the voltmeter reads 10.8 V.
.....................................................................
.....................................................................
.....................................................................
(ii) On measuring the current through the lamp the student finds it to be 0.18 A. Calculate
the internal resistance of the battery. [3]

This question involves physical reasoning and calculations for electric circuits.
Light bulbs are marked with the rating 10 V; 3 W. Suppose you connect three of the bulbs in series
with a switch and a 30 V battery as shown in Figure 1 below. Switch S is initially open.
30 V
A B C
Figure 1
(a) A student tells you that after switch S is closed, bulb C will light up first, because electrons
from the negative terminal of the battery will reach it first, and then go on to light bulbs B
and A in succession. Is this prediction and reasoning correct? How would you reply? [2]

B2. This question is in two parts. Part 1 is about electric circuits and Part 2 is about an orbiting
satellite.
Susan sets up the circuit below in order to measure the current-voltage (I-V) characteristic of a
small filament lamp.
The supply is a battery that has an e.m.f. of 3.0 V and the ammeter and voltmeter are considered
to be ideal. The lamp is labelled by the manufacturer as “3 Volts, 0.6 Watts”.
(a) (i) Explain what information this labelling provides about the normal operation of the
lamp. [2]

Susan sets the variable resistor to its maximum value of resistance. She then closes the switch S
and records the following readings.
She then sets the variable resistor to its zero value of resistance and records the following

(b) (i) Explain why, by changing the value of the resistance of the variable resistance, the
potential difference across the lamp cannot be reduced to zero or be increased to
3.0 V. [2]

The diagram below shows an alternative circuit for varying the potential difference across the
lamp.
The potential divider XZ has a potential of 3.0 V across it. When the contact is at the position Y,
the resistance of XY equals the resistance of YZ which equals 12 !. The resistance of the lamp
is 4.0 !.
