Question 6

This shape is made from two identical sectors.

Work out the perimeter of the shape.

Give your answer in terms of 𝜋.

.......................... cm
Question 7

A frustum is made by removing a small cone from a large cone.

The cones are mathematically similar.

The large cone has base radius 𝑟 cm and height ℎ cm.

Given that

find an expression, in terms of ℎ, for the height of the frustum.

Question 8

Ibrahim mixes 74 g of lead and 126 g of tin to make 200 g of an alloy.

Lead has a density of 11.34 g/cm 3 .

Tin has a density of 7.31 g/cm 3 .

Work out the density of the alloy.

Give your answer correct to 1 decimal place

.......................... g/cm 3
Question 9

Elliot did an experiment to find the value of 𝑔 m/𝑠 2 , the acceleration due to gravity. He measured
the time, 𝑇 seconds, that a block took to slide 𝐿 m down a smooth slope of angle 𝑥 ° .

He then used the formula

2𝐿
𝑔=
𝑇2 𝑠𝑖𝑛 𝑥

to calculate an estimate for 𝑔.

𝑇 = 1.3correct to 1 decimal place.𝐿 = 4.50 correct to 2 decimal places. 𝑥 = 30 correct to the

nearest integer.

Calculate the lower bound and the upper bound for the value of 𝑔.
Give your answers correct to 3 decimal places.

Lower bound = ..........................

Upper bound = ..........................
