Section D – Long Answer (5 × 2 = 10 marks)

16. (a) Derive the second equation of motion:


s=ut+12at2s = ut + \frac{1}{2} a t^2 using the graphical method.
(b) A body starts from rest and accelerates at 2 m/s². Find the distance travelled in 5
seconds.

converting ice into water and water into steam.

Section E – Case-Based Question (5 marks)

18. Read the passage and answer:

A student notices water droplets forming on the outer surface of a glass containing ice-cold water
during summer. Her friend touches the glass and says it's wet from inside.

Answer the following:


a) Why does the outer surface of the glass get wet?
b) What is this process called?
c) Which state change is involved here?
d) What does this prove about particles of matter?
e) Why is the friend's assumption incorrect?
