Re: MEI M1 exam discussion - Friday 1st Juneyeahh i compared answers with my friends and they got the same answer as discussed here. i might have done a silly calculator mistake.(Original post by xiyangliu)
Your method is correct but answer appears to be different from most of ppl ...

so how many marks do you think i would lose? -
Not sure but u ll get all method marks(Original post by Hazwanfakhri)

Re: MEI M1 exam discussion - Friday 1st JuneTheres a markscheme already been made on this thread(Original post by posting)
has any1 made a markscheme yet? -

has any1 made a markscheme yet?Does anyone have the paper please?(Original post by xiyangliu)
1)(A) FALSE (B)True (C)True (D)False
2)(i)v=3t^2-12t+9
(ii)s=t^3-6t^2+9t-2
3)(i)(0,0)
(ii) (A): equilibrium (B): zero Displacement
4)(i) using s=ut+o.5at^2
500=5x20 + 0.5a400
a = 2
(ii)v = 35
5)(i) hope you got that right, tension, Reaction, friction and weight
(ii)25
(3)50cos30+R=10g solve for R
(IV) NOT SURE
6)(i) 3.57 some thing like this therefore over
(ii) air resistance
7)(i) R =1500
(ii) (A) 5900N (B)100300N
(iii)121000-( 800000g x 1/80 + 33000) = - 0.0125 direction down the slope
(iv) beta = 0.241 (3sf)
8)(i) Abs(AB) which use pythagoras (12,16)
(ii) differentiat r = (3,2) + (6,8)t should get (6,8) therefore constant velocity
(iii) cant remember ...
(iv) finishes the race at the same time
(v) differentiate get speed is (6,8t), sub t = 2 into it get (6, 16) pythag again get speed which is abt 17 bearing is 021
(vi) S1 - S2, horizontal displacement cancels out
Verticle you get 4t^2 - 8t... differentiate this get 8t - 8, make this to 0 get maximum point
get t = 1
sub bak in, get greatest distance is 4km

Re: MEI M1 exam discussion - Friday 1st JuneSounds good to me!(Original post by TimetoSucceed)
guys i did the projectile differently
i did s = ut + o.5at^2
set s as 2.44, used quadratic formula to get t, got 2 values
used the highest one and that was when it was descending
used that t to work out the horizonal distance at that time which was 55m
therefore as 55>50, and 2.44 is the vertical distance off the ground at 55m, then at 50m itd be above 2.44 hence going over the pole.
you made such a meal out of it
hahaha, but thats whats good about M1 you can use a variety of methods.

Re: MEI M1 exam discussion - Friday 1st JuneYes!(Original post by xiyangliu)
Last question was dodge did anyone get beta as 0.241 3sf

Re: MEI M1 exam discussion - Friday 1st JuneYou might have lost one mark, but you'll only be penalised once for the mistake. As for q5(i), I believe that was a force diagram of a block being pulled by a string(Original post by shewhomustnotbnamd)
two questions, 1, do you think i'll lose a mark for constantly putting metres rather than kilometres? and secondly what was q5i) that we're all supposed to have got?!

Re: MEI M1 exam discussion - Friday 1st Juneahh thanks so much(Original post by DavidH20)

) annoying about the metres kilometres thing if the maths is right though...its a maths test not a reading test -_- same with the comprehension in c4, wheres the fricking algebra in english a level?! but thanks
sorry for the rant :P x
