Was it harder than last years?

Will there be a proper unofficial mark scheme posted for m1 soon?


Don't think so... Arsey, who used to do almost all the rest, posted that he was told by Edexcel to stop.. :frown:
Guy for the forces question I left my answer in vector coloumn instead of writing 2.5i+2.5j - would I still loose marks?

grade boundary expectations anyone?

Because it was quite a dodgy paper I reckon they'll be lower than normal, maybe like 56 for an A ?
Or atleast I hope so.
hopefully C3 and C4 isnt as bad

Is it just me, or did anyone else feel that for some of the questions with a lot marks available (such as q5 and q8a), they did very little working?


Exactly, I thought I was missing out on steps man.

Resolve horizontally and get a, then use suvat

nope.. in the mark scheme it says accept answers if in vector coloumn form
For the direction question i got 45 but then I wrote down underneath that the bearing is 180-45, and that it's south west of the pulley...

Tension was 20.6 and Force of brick on pan was 15.5


I showed workings out for 2 values or R, I had to values of R with their own working side by side, because I was not sure, will I get the marks for the correct one or did I just f** myself up?

Why did I get 0.2Ns for the impulse question??? Did anyone else?


Got0.575 i used suvat to resolved upwards or sideways and used impulse = ft
Original post by jovdawesome
omg yes.... i got 0.2 Ns and i was pretty confident about that until all my mates were like they got 3


Got 0.2 as well
ahh i'm happy with how i did (looking at the unofficial mark schemes)

although I messed up the impulse question (i think i read the question as force exerted on the particle rather than impulse)
Original post by jovdawesome
nope... for bearing it was 90+14= 104


He was referring to the last question, not that one
Original post by avengedabbie
did anyone get 1.6m and 66kg for the moments question? I was almost 100% sure that was right


I did aswell but apparently that isnt correct. :frown:

No idea I just remember getting 3 Ns at this point
