Ok it's really annoting me, people thinking that 7.65s (my answer) was too long. I'm sorry, but let's think about it.

It's already going at 8ms^-1. There's an acceleration against motion, at -gSin15. so, it's got to go at 0ms^-1, which would take about 3. odd seconds. Then, it's got to travel downwards, at 13m. From the first 3 seconds, it's going to go slightly further than 13m. So to you, who put 7.67, WELL DONE! :biggrin: :P


thanks for that :biggrin: my rounding was a little off i think but yeah 7.67 ish 7.65 is probably exactly right

S = 321 N
T = 80.4 N

if angle alpha is 5.71, Tan5.71 = roughly 0.1 = a / 30. Therefore a= 30 x 0.1 = 3m. Voila!

did you do pythagoras to find T and do tan to find the angle and - it from 90 degrees?


yeah pythag for 2 but sine rule to show everything else

cant remember though

sqrt (250^2 + 25^2) = 251 n

yeah i got those two forces.

Howeverm I did sine rule to find it was 3m

so basically we found c ? :smile:

Pretty much. That's why they wanted us to draw a triangle of forces.

For the first question, did people get 16g as the weight and reaction force?
I have a paper I can post, just to confirm, am I allowed to?

Yes you can. MEI M1 is only taken at 9.00 UK time.
Going by TSR guidelines: "Exams from the examination boards AQA, OCR, CCEA, WJEC and CIE (other than orals and practicals) are fine to talk about straight after the exams. In any situations where exams from these boards are taken internationally, the exam board is satisfied that appropriate controls are already in place."

Here is the paper :smile: If someone could get going on an unofficial Mark Scheme that would be fab x

Since its too big for TSR, you can download it here: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/248326/M1%20June%202013.pdf

Cheers for this :smile: on another note has anyone got the D1 paper, haven't seen that one surface yet

I'm on it. It will take about 45 minutes

Up : 9g and 7g

Down 16g

You had to write the numerical value for each (i.e. substitute g for 9.8)
what do we reckon grade boundaries will be like??

Judging by the general reaction to the paper, I reckon somewhere along the lines of June 2006:

A - 55
B - 47
C - 40

i put t = 80.66 obviosuly due to rounding etc do u think this will be correct

Well, g is a constant, as 9.8, so having put 16g, won't matter. 16g is a number, it's just neat :biggrin: On the papers they use g as a constant, so why can't we? Anyway, I've had some problems, but it's uploading now.
