less than two days left... good luck everyone!


😨😨😨 im gonna flunk this entire exam so bad
Original post by Nighthunter67
Bcz usually writing is from left to right and they drew north on the left hence they drew it first idk bro this exams driving me nuts


Also another point I noticed is that B option has the correct resultant drawn. But the vectors positions are still messed up. (Consider this as ,the car moved from a point to right then upwards.)
A is not correct because resultant is going downwards.
C is not correct because resultant is downwards.
D is not correct because resultant is going towards left but the car went right.
This mcq was a tricky one tho gotta give em that

*surprised pikachu meme *
Woah
yeah tht seems legit too i didnt even think abt tht before
Is there any way I can assure an a in unit 1 within 2 days?I mean I have been studying the past 4 months for my IALs but I couldn't finish my whole syllabus within time.I havent done past papers at all.The reason for all this was my clinical depression.

Welp there is no gurantee but the best thing to do at this point is study the factsheets posted at the top of the thread and practice the latest papers
Also i hope u overcome ur depression
Good luck

I solved this but it took three mental breakdowns and two hours and the answer seems so obvious now

that egg question .....and the mars question...give me chills
btw..i cant seem to complete this paper in time..i need 2 full hours to do the paper...i really need help..
i did around 13 papers under timed conditions..first i get a U ..and then, i usually have about 2-3 questions remaining for which i need an extra half hour..ik im slow, i need to give time to every question... but i really need help...
is anyone else facing this problem?

The egg question was alright the mars question was horrible
I finish on time (yet not correctly :") ) i guess the trick is if the q.s doesnt click instantly skip ahead but make sure u dont leave too many q.s to returns to later on and spend time thinking not writing write heck heckin fast strike stuff and dont worry abt handwriting too much

power is workdone/time taken
workdone is force x distance
vectorrrs.png
we need to find the force applied against the component of weight 80gsin(3)...this force is itself is 80gsin(3) because the runner runs at constant speed..so forward and backward forces must be equal ..we now know the force
this is tricky ...he runs 2.5 meters (distance) in 1 second(time)
plug it in the formula..
P= (80gsin(3) x 2.5)/1 = 102.7

Our school isnt certified for cambridge a levels since they require actual practicals and we dont have labs until o level we did the alternative to practical so it was fine

Where are your from btw?
My only problems are of projectile motions. I always mess up in them. I dunno sometimes the answer is so easy but I can't figure it out. Can anyone help me with this please.
