Re: Mr M's OCR (not OCR MEI) M1 Answers May 2012No the paper says "give non-exact numerical answers to 3 s.f." - I gave the exact answer instead.(Original post by 4mar_ar5en4l)
Not a massive issue, but shouldn't it be 2.67m (3 s.f.)
Accuracy greater than 3 s.f. is never penalised anyway. -
Re: Mr M's OCR (not OCR MEI) M1 Answers May 2012Hi Mr M I think you need to check your answer to the last part of the pulleys question. The answer should be 0.138m(Original post by Mr M)
Hard to say - lose two?
First part before object hits ground
s=0.11025
Then final velocity = 0.735m/s
So initial velocity = 0.735m/s for object going up..
0^2 = 0.735^2 - 2x9.8x s
s= 0.0275625
overall s= 0.1378
therefore 0.138m -
Re: Mr M's OCR (not OCR MEI) M1 Answers May 2012Yes that's fine.(Original post by McMatty)
Hey,
For Q6iv: i showed it would stay in equilibrium by resolving down the plane using F=ma, came out with negative acceleration, therefore proved it was in equilibrium.
That a correct method or not?!
thanks -

P started 0.11025 m above the ground, rose another 0.11025 m and then finally went up 0.0275 m. -
Re: Mr M's OCR (not OCR MEI) M1 Answers May 2012Anybody?(Original post by ILovePi)
Does anybody remember what the wording for Q4 was? Specifically part ii? -

Anybody? -
Re: Mr M's OCR (not OCR MEI) M1 Answers May 2012Are you certain that he will drop 1 mark? I did the exact same thing. If you are correct I lost 3 marks max on the paper yayy!!(Original post by Mr M)

Not doubting your judgement just want to make sure because I'm ecstatic.

Re: Mr M's OCR (not OCR MEI) M1 Answers May 2012They always say or better, you don't get penalised for giving more accurate answers!(Original post by PreciseUrination)
Yes Kgms^-1 is fine.
Might be [-1], Answers are required to 3s.f unless otherwise specified. -
Re: Mr M's OCR (not OCR MEI) M1 Answers May 2012Yes. Well done.(Original post by Voglie)

Re: Mr M's OCR (not OCR MEI) M1 Answers May 2012
How many marks would I get if I got 8m and 3.6m for the 2 runners on 3ii) but I subtracted them instead of adding them with the 1m? And also how many marks lost for the very last question as I got v=1.55ms^-1 from getting the left hand side as 3.1 x 0.5 = -0.5v + 1.5v

Re: Mr M's OCR (not OCR MEI) M1 Answers May 2012
Hi Mr M,
For question 4, I stupidly thought that the block was on a slope rather than the force. For some reason I managed to get the coefficient exactly right but my frictional force was different and therefore the speed required was different but I think I used the right method (finding acceleration etc)
How many marks do you think I will lose and will there be any error carried forward?
Thanks -

Re: Mr M's OCR (not OCR MEI) M1 Answers May 2012sorry, my phone battery was dying :P.(Original post by Mr M)
This is a bit vague - lose 2 or 3?
I resolved perpendicular and parallel.
For paralell i did it correctly
However, for perp rather than 32cos30 - 6.4sin30. i did +6.4.sin30.
After this i did F=muR and found mu (i just gave my answer rather than the show that)
i was wondering how many i would lose for this?
thanks

Re: Mr M's OCR (not OCR MEI) M1 Answers May 2012Scanned paper from today if anyone wants to see actual questions:(Original post by ILovePi)

Has the answers on there too (which match, thankfully, with Mr M's) which might be useful.Last edited by tahseen1995; 31-05-2012 at 20:55. -
Re: Mr M's OCR (not OCR MEI) M1 Answers May 2012i got 1.55 m/s too do you know what we had to do ?(Original post by As_Dust_Dances_)
