2(b)(i) u = 15 sin 60° (= 13 m s–1) C1

t = 15 sin 60° / 9.81 C1

2(b)(ii) the force in the horizontal direction is zero B1

2(b)(iii) (velocity =) 15 cos 60° = 7.5 (m s–1) A1

or
(velocity =) 15 sin 30° = 7.5 (m s–1)

2(c)(i) p = mv or 0.40 × 7.5 or 0.40 × 4.3 C1

Δp = 0.40 (7.5 + 4.3) A1

= 4.7 kg m s–1

3(a) the rate of change of momentum A1

base units: kg m s–2 × m = kg m2 s–2 A1

3(b)(i) distance of COG from P (= GP) C1

= 17 cos 45° – 4.0 or (144.5)½ – 4.0 (= 8.0 cm)

moment = 0.15 × 8.0 × 10–2 A1

= 1.2 × 10–2 N m

(b)(ii) (line of action of) weight acts through pivot/P B1

or
distance between (line of action of) weight and pivot/P is zero

(so) weight does not have a moment about pivot/P B1

Question Answer Marks

4(a) (work done =) force × distance moved in direction of force B1

4(b)(i) 1. acceleration = gradient or a = (v – u) / t or a = ∆v / t C1

e.g. a = 2.4 / 3.0 A1

= 0.80 m s–2

2. tension in cable = (13.0 + 2.0) × 103 C1

work done = 15 × 103 × (3.0 × 2.4) A1

= 1.1 × 105 J

4(b)(ii) power = Fv C1

v = 2.0 (m s–1) C1

input power = (1.6 × 104 × 2.0) / 0.67 A1

= 4.8 × 104 W

4(b)(iii) work is done against friction so (increase in) GPE is less (than work done by motor) A1
or
energy is lost or transferred or converted to heat/thermal energy due to friction or resistance force
or
work is done lifting the cable so GPE is less

5(a)(i) p = mv C1

= 0.2(00) × 6.(00) × sin 60(.0)° or 0.2(00) × 6.(00) × cos 30(.0)° A1

= 1.04 kg m s–1

(a)(ii) 0.300 × vx × sin 60.0°= 1.04 A1

vx = 4.00 m s–1

(a)(iii) 0.30 × 4.0 × cos 60° or 0.20 × 6.0 × cos 60° or (0.30 + 0.20)v or 0.50v C1

0.30 × 4.0 × cos 60° + 0.20 × 6.0 × cos 60° = (0.30 + 0.20)v or 0.50v A1

so v = 2.4 m s–1

(b)(i) E = ½mv2 C1

½ × 0.50 × 2.42 = ½ × 72 × x2 C1

x = 0.20 m A1

(b)(ii) 1. straight line from the origin sloping upwards B1
