B is not the correct answer as the gravitational force does not increase.
C is not the correct answer as an increase in temperature would reduce the viscosity
which would not account for a decrease in acceleration.

11 m = 34.1 m s−1 × t − ½ × 9.81 m s−2 × t2
4.91 × t2 − 34.1 m s−1 × t + 11 m = 0
t = (34.1 ± √( 34.12 − 4 × 11 × 4.91) m s−1 ÷ 9.81 m s−2
= 6.62 s (or 0.34 s)

18(c)
Resolves for horizontal component of velocity (1)
Use of s = v t (1)
260 m so no (1) 3
(Allow ecf from (b) with correct conclusion based on student’s value)

Example of calculation
Horizontal component of velocity = 52 m s−1 × cos 41° = 39.2 m s−1
s = 39.2 m s−1 × 6.62 s = 260 m
Distance required 245 m to 255 m and 260 m > 255 m so no.

Answer
Number k
15(a) Use of correct trigonometry to calculate horizontal component (1
[9.7 cos 49° or 9.7 sin 41° seen] )
Use of s = u t + ½ a t2 with a = 0 [i.e. use of s = v t]
t = 0.79 (s) [NB reverse argument scores 2 marks (Rule 4.2)] (1 3
)
Example of calculation (1
vH = 9.70 m s−1 × cos 49° = 6.36 m s−1 )
t = 5.00 m ÷ 6.36 m s−1 = 0.786 s

15(b) Use of correct trigonometry to calculate vertical component (1)

[9.7 sin 49° or 9.7 cos 41° seen]

Use of s = u t + ½ a t2 (1)
s = 2.7 m (ecf from (a)) (1)
["show that" value also gives 2.72 m]
Correct conclusion from valid comparison using student’s calculated value (1)

Or
Use of v2 = u2 + 2 a s (1)
Max height = 2.7 m [no ecf] (1)
Correct conclusion from valid comparison using student’s calculated value (1) 4
[allow any valid suvat method, allow ecf if method involves t from (a)]

Example of calculation
vV = 9.70 m s−1 × sin 49° = 7.32 m s−1
s = 7.32m s−1 × 0.79 s − 0.5 × 9.81 m s−2 × (0.79 s)2 = 2.72 m
2.72 m < 3.00 m so ball does not go over the wall

 8 The correct answer is B 1

A is not the correct answer because the mass has not been multiplied by g
C is not the correct answer because the mass has not been multiplied by g
and the factor of 103 is missing for the power
D is not the correct answer because the factor of 103 is missing for the power
9 The correct answer is B 1

A is not the correct answer because the mass is not needed

C is not the correct answer because radius cannot be directly measured and
the mass is not needed
D is not the correct answer because radius cannot be directly measured
10 The correct answer is B 1

A is not the correct answer because the forces don't act on the same body
C is not the correct answer because the forces have equal magnitudes

Number
11 Use of s = u t + ½ a t2 with u = 0 and a = g for flight time (1)
Use of s = u t + ½ a t2 with a = 0 for horizontal displacement of stone (1)
Distance travelled = 5.9 m (1) 3

Example of calculation
12 m = 0.5 × 9.81 m s−2 × t2
t = √(12.0 m ÷ 4.905 m s−2) = 1.56 s
sstone = 3.8 m s−1 × 1.56 s = 5.94 m

12(a)
(Use balance to measure) mass and multiply
mass by g to determine weight
Or
Use the balance set to read newtons to determine weight (of ball) (1)

Measure the diameter (of the ball) (with the calliper) to determine volume (1)

Identify upthrust with weight of fluid displaced (1)

Calculate the weight of fluid displaced by multiplying the volume of the ball by
the density of the liquid and g (1) 4

12(b) Use of F = 6π ηrv (1)

η = 2.2 × 102 Pa s (1) 2

Example of calculation
1.1 × 10−2 N = 6π × η × 0.50 × 10−2 m × 5.4 × 10−4 m s−1
η = 1.1 × 10−2 N ÷ (6π × 2.7 × 10−6 m2 s−1) = 216 Pa s
