Instructions cover recording centre and candidate details, acceptable instruments, and presentation requirements. Question 1 investigates oscillations of a mass using a metre rule, clamp supports, a spring, and measured distances d and s. Learners determine the oscillation period T for multiple configurations, record results with T², and plot T² versus s to obtain gradient and y-intercept.","Candidate Name    \nCentre Number  \n________________________________  \nCandidate Number    \nCAMBRIDGE INTERNATIONAL EXAMINATIONS  \nCambridge International Advanced Subsidiary and Advanced Level  \n9702/31  \nPHYSICS  \nPaper 3 Advanced Practical Skills 1  \nMay/June 2018  \nTIME: 2 hours  \nSUITABLE FOR VISUALLY IMPAIRED CANDIDATES  \nCandidates answer on the Question Paper.

Do not use staples, paper clips, glue or correction fluid. DO NOT WRITE IN ANY BARCODES.  \nAnswer BOTH questions.  \nYou will be allowed to work with the apparatus for a maximum of one hour for each question.  \nYou are expected to record all your observations as soon as these observations are made, and to plan the presentation of the records so that it is not necessary to make a fair copy of them.  \nYou are reminded of the need for good English and clear presentation in your answers.  \nElectronic calculators may be used.  \nYou may lose marks if you do not show your working or if you do not use appropriate units.  \nAdditional answer paper and graph paper should be used only if it becomes necessary to do so.  \nAt the end of the examination, fasten all your work securely together.  \nThe number of marks is given in brackets [ ] at the end of each question or part question.  \nYOU MAY NOT NEED TO USE ALL OF THE MATERIALS PROVIDED.  \n1 In this experiment, you will investigate the oscillations of a mass.  \n(a) Set up the apparatus as shown in Fig. 1.1.  \nrod of clamp A metre rule  \nboss  \nboss  \nrod of  \nstands  \nclamp spring  \nloop  \nstring loop  \nmass M  \nbench  \nFIG. 1.1  \n• Hang mass M from the string loop near the end of the metre rule.  \n• Ensure that the metre rule is pushing up against the rod of clamp A at approximately the 24 cm mark.  \n• The distance between the rod of clamp A and the string attached to the spring is d. Adjust the position of the stand holding the spring so that d is approximately 30 cm.  \n• Adjust the height of the clamps until the rule is horizontal. Ensure that the spring is vertical.  \n• Measure and record d.  \nd =    \n• The distance between the rod of clamp A and the string supporting M is s.  \nMeasure and record s.  \ns =  \n__________________  \n[1]  \n(b) • Pull M down through a short distance.  \n• Release M so that it oscillates.  \n• Determine the period Tof these oscillations.  \nT =   [1]  \n(c) • WITHOUT MOVING THE STANDS, slide the rule horizontally through the string loop so that d remains constant but s changes.  \n• Adjust the height of the clamps until the rule is horizontal. Ensure that the spring is vertical.  \n• Measure and record s.  \ns =  \n__________________  \n• Repeat (b).  \nT =    \n[1]  \n(d) Vary s and repeat (c) until you have five sets of values of s and T. You may include your previous sets of readings.  \nRecord your results in a table. Include values of T 2 in your table.  \n[9]  \n(e) (i) Plot a graph of T 2 on the y-axis against s on  \nthe x-axis.
