    Instructions Use black ink or ball-point pen (blacklhlue). Fill in the boxes at the top of this page with your names and the date. Answer all questions (there are 18 questions and 2 challenge i bonus questions). Answer the questions in the spaces provided - there may be more space than you need. In calculations you shoul-d show all the steps in your working, giving your answer at each-stage.Information The total mark for this paper is 77 (+ 13challenge / bonus marks). The marks for each question are shown in brackets - use this as-a guide as to-luno much time to spend

    on each question; Questions labelled with an asterisk (*) before the number of the question, are ones where the quality

    of your written communication will be assessed - you should take particular care with spelling,punctuation and grammar, as well as the clarity of expression, on these questions.

    Questions with an asterisk (*) after the number of the question are challenge questions. They aremore searching and deeper and it is intended to challenge your knowledge and understanding ofphysics. They are bonus questions and you should attempt them only if you have time.

    The list of data, formulae and relationships is provided separately. You may use a scientific calculator.Advice Read each question carefully before you start to answer it. Keep an eye on the time. Try to answer every question. Always check your answers.

    the refractive index of the liquid also increases. A simple refractometer uses ahollow prism shape that can be filled with different liquids.(i) The simplified diagram below shows a ray of light passing through a prism

    filled with a liquid. \

    The liquid is replaced with one of a higher sugar concentration.Using the same incident ray, draw the new path through the liquid and out of thepnsm.
