Question 1
Solution
✓ 𝟖. 𝟔𝟕 × 𝟏𝟎−𝟗 𝒎
✓ 𝟖. 𝟔𝟕𝒏𝒎
✓ 𝟎. 𝟎𝟎𝟎, 𝟎𝟎𝟎, 𝟎𝟎𝟖, 𝟕𝒎
ሾ𝒗ሿ𝒎 = ሾ𝐋𝑻−𝟏 ሿ𝒎
ሾ𝒓ሿ𝒏 = ሾ𝑳ሿ𝒏
ሾ𝒂ሿ = 𝐋𝐓 −𝟐 ሾ𝒌ሿ = 𝟏
𝐋𝐓 −𝟐 = ሾ𝑳ሿ𝒏 ሾ𝐋𝑻−𝟏 ሿ𝒎
𝐋𝐓 −𝟐 = 𝐋𝒎+𝒏 𝑻−𝒎
𝒎 + 𝒏 = 𝟏 , 𝒎 = 𝟐 and n=-1

If 𝐴 = 90𝑁 , 𝐵 = 75𝑁 and 𝐶 = 40𝑁 . Use the method of components to
calculate,
Vector ∑ 𝑭𝒙 ∑ 𝑭𝒚

Question 3
a) The motion of the particle along the x axis is given by 𝑥 = 2𝑡 3 + 𝑡 2 − 𝑡 + 1,
where 𝑥 is the position of the particle in meters (m) and t is time in seconds
(s). Calculate displacement of the particle between t = 1.00s and 5.00s

iii. Explain how this range would change if this shot had been played on the
moon. [Hint; gravity at moon 1.62 m/s²] [3 marks]
iv. What are the horizontal and vertical components of the balls velocity just
after it hits the ground? [4 marks]
Horizontal component
𝒗𝒙 = 𝒗𝟎 𝒄𝒐𝒔 𝜽 = 𝟏𝟐. 𝟐𝟗𝒎/𝒔
Vertical component
𝒗𝒚 = 𝒗𝟎 𝐬𝐢𝐧 𝜽 − 𝐠𝐭 = −𝟖. 𝟔𝟒𝐦/𝐬
