Use the right hand grip rule to determine the polarity of the solenoid . Current points downwards , so your fingers must point downwards . Your thumb faces the right hand side , so P is north . Due to Lenz's Law , X should also be north , since the direction of induced current is always such that its magnetic field opposes the original change of magnetic flux .

But they didn't say whether the soft iron core is pushed in or pulled out...dosen't this affect?

And also, if the soft iron core induces the current in the solenoid, why a battery is used then?

Recall that e.m.f and subsequently , induced current is generated in the soft iron core when a changing magnetic flux is applied when the solenoid is switched on .

I think I didn't mention about soft iron core inducing a current in the solenoid .  hmm.gif

Oh I see....I think I understand now, thank you so much!

I should take Chinese during form 4, at least I know if I really can't score, I can drop it during form 5. but sadly, I never tried before, I kinda regret now:(

I didn't take because I thought 9 subjects is already a huge burden, can afford to study another subject

My previous teacher recommends us to give extra for EVERY single question, if it asks for 2, give 3(add you own iii there), but some teachers seem to be not accepting the extra nilai we give, she thinks it's not fair. Different teachers seem to have different ways of marking the paper. My current teacher don't mark the third nilai if we got correct for the first and second, he also don't mark the third essay I did, which is quite different from my previous teachers, who marks everything.

What do your teacher say? Do he/she allow extra answers?

Btw, nilai rasional is usable in every single question for my trials.

Why not write 2 esei but with 3 nilai?

Ya I did that too, I gave 3 nilai for all 3, but he didn't mark the third one(maybe it's because my first and second are correct)

But there was a moral teacher who came to our school and gave us ceramah, she told us to answer all three, same us what my previous teacher told me. My current teacher said examiners will not bother to read the third essay, although we didn't get full mark for the first and second, is that true?

Coincidentally, "silence" came out as the one-word essay in my trials.

I chose the fourth one, I wrote about the relationship between me and my sister(of course it's fake tongue.gif ). I almost lose her in an accident and after that out relationship improved a lot. But sadly I managed to get 38 only blink.gif

Wow, your essays, especially the Bahagian B was amazing. shocking.gif  I would post mine, but my handwriting is urgh cry.gif  Well, I'm sure we all suffer from spelling errors. Heck, I always repeat a sentence at least once in my exams it seems. I mentioned "jika masalah ini dibiarkan berterusan" twice in succession. I guess I'll have to write faster and do a quick run through my essay before the time is up.

May I know how much time you spent on both parts? notworthy.gif
reading the blog, I like it rclxms.gif
Anyways, this question came up during my trials in Sejarah P1 :

Sejak Zaman Maurys, pelbagai jenis cukai dikenakan terhadap hasil perdagangan. Hasil cukai tersebut digunakan untuk:

A membuka sekolah baru
B membina kubu pertahanan
C membayar gaji anggota tentera
D meningkatkan kemudahan di peabuhan
Anyone knows the answer for this? I looked through my buku rujukan but it was not mentioned and I dont have F4 textbook
*
The answer is C.

The sentence in the textbook:
Cukai ini adalah untuk menyara anggota tentera, para pentadbir dan raja.

This is why it's important to read both. The first time I normally read the textbook, then my reference book. At the same time, I'll add points which are not included in the reference book.

I can say the textbook is a mess in terms of point organisation so I just read once, it makes me feel headache.

I think it's also because my teacher marked quite lenient, she ignored minor spelling mistakes, and there was one entire structure question asking about KBKK question(basic knowledge of PMR+KBKK).

I thought all minor spelling mistakes were ignored in non-language papers. Except for maybe specific terms.

I spelt some specific terms wrongly too, like names, but just a very minor one.

No I mean subjective, for example

Nyatakan cara-cara untuk memelihara alam sekeliling.

i)
ii)

We can write iii), iv), v)?

For my teacher, he said maximum extra 1, he won't read the second extra answer....not sure what is other teacher's way

Pretty well , perhaps ? Constant preparation for Sejarah though . Nearly done with Biology, which is a relief , now all I have to do for the science subjects are the experiments . Need to practice more for A.M P2 , and get my butt off to read E.A as time will be running out . We'll have Negeri Sembilan Gerak Gempur next week . Ughhh . Not sure what to feel . On one hand I feel that it'll be a good practice , on another , I want to spend these weeks with my friends --- it'll be the last with them , in school .

By the way , sorry for not replying to your queries ; do you mind posting them here if you could ? After the trials results were announced , I thought I would be free for a while , but no , I had to print trial papers , share mine with friends from other schools and deal with teachers about a few things .

In physics, for potential energy,  must we specify if its elastic or gravitational PE or just write potential energy, especially for questions on energy change

I'm not sure but it's better to specify. It isn't that hard to differentiate them after all, there is a very distinctive difference between them.

I can get photostats at 5 cents per piece, printing is more expensive. By the way, have 2 pages per paper.

I squeezed 9 pages into a page for objective questions hahaha

The question paper give like 2 questions per page(or even 1) is such a waste of paper.

for Q9 is it a very direct question where Pressure = Depth x Density x 9.8

P = 0.7 x 1000 x 9.8 = 6860 Pa?

I see . Don't you check your answers , especially for Add Maths 2 ? I find myself making errors under exam conditions , so it's very important that I carefully check each question after answering .

Same problem too, it seems correct when I do but when I check mistakes float up here and there. The I'll be frustrated because I have to correction tape the whole thing or cancel out, it don't look neat anymore.
