Edexcel Further Mechanics 1 - UNOFFICIAL MARK SCHEME [20th June 2019]

Poll

How many marks do you think you got?

Given that the other "unofficial markscheme" is a troll with all the incorrect answers, here's what I got:

1a) Show that
1b) T = 15/2u when d=3

2a) v = 3sqrt(13)/5 = 2.16ms^-1

3) Possible impulses were (-2, +-1.5), (+-1.5, -2) - 4 in total

4a) Show that?
4b) a = 1.38ms^-1
4c) 25.2 m

5a) 1/9<e<=1
5b) e=2/3

6a) v = (-11/3, 2)
6b) |I| = 4/3
6c) 118 degrees

7b) a = 5g/3
7c) vmax = 5/6 sqrt(3ga)

I've also made this thread so that we can actually have one with a poll of how people did :smile:

Here is what i got, can't guarantee all correct
1.T=15/2u
2.v=3sqrt(13)/5=2.16
3. -2 1.5, interchange position and change signs, 4 answers in total
4. a=1.987 d=25.17
5.e>1/9 e=2/3
6. v=(-11/3 2) I=2/15 angle=118
7.a=5g/3 v=5sqrt(3ag)/6

some of your answers are wrong. 4c is 25.2 m. 6c is 118 degrees as it has to be to nearest degree. v max id 5/6 sqrt(3ga)

4b) a = 1.38ms^-1
4c) 22.7m (although I believe this to be wrong)

5a) 1/9<e<=1
5b) e=2/3

6a) v = (-11/3, 2)
6b) |I| = 4/3
6c) 117.7?

7b) a = 5g/3
7c) vmax = 5/2 sqrt(ga)

For the last one I believe is 5/6root3ga

not max speed for 7c and angle needs to be nearest degree
Original post by UrBusted
4c was 25.2, rest are right i think
Reply 5
you are correct

how many marks was 4b?

i got 118 and 25.2, just forgot answer said to nearest degree. for maximum speed me and my friend got ((25/12)ga)^1/2, which I'm assuming is the same as what you got expanded???

Thanks guys, fixed. Looks like I did worse than I wanted to though :frown:

yeah you are right. its just you said you agreed with his answer for that one which he got wrong.

yeah, everyones getting different answers for last one. i got 118 and 25.2, just forgot answer said to nearest degree. for maximum speed me and my friend got ((25/12)ga)^1/2, which I'm assuming is the same as what you got expanded???

seems like you have still done incredibly well even with those mistakes. you've probably still got an A* on this paper

Me and some other people in my class got e= 0.49 for q5
I got 1.38 for 4.a)
And doesn’t e have to bigger than 1/6?
And I=0.2(11/3)+0.2(3)=4/3 surely?

sorry but you are wrong

anyone remember the answer to the initial acceleration one? i got 1.987 but not sure
Reply 15
What are we thinking for grade boundaries? Could be very high (70 for an A*?).

(1/2(m1)(u1)^2+1/2(m2)(u2)^2)/(1/2(m1(v1)^2 +1/2(m2)(v2)^2) = 0.25 and then solve is how i did it

And for 6b my impulse was 10/3 cos m= 0.5 and v-u was -20/3

quite sure it was i = mv - m(-u) which was mv+mu, which in the end got 4/3

But because it's vectors you can just use vector notation so v =-11/3 and u = 3 ( along x component) so m(v-u) was -10/3?
