Yes as long as you use it in the right part of the question, i.e. do the work in part b which is actually used in part c. But you won't get marks for part d if you do it in part e.(Original post by KloppOClock)
can you get the marks if part of your method is in the previous part of the question?

I did this one recently, that whole question had alot of weirdness....regarding your question yeah I think the answer is nonsense...there are a couple other things that could be put that make sense...
did you get part C?
How can you input 's' as the original distance when it says before it hits thr water?
U=U
You don't need final velocity..
A = 9.8 due to gravity
And you use the exact same S. -

Find the vector for getting from r0 to r. Work out its magnitude. Compare this with 4, e.g if the magnitude was 12 (which it isn't) the time would be 12/4 = 3.
it's 2.5 -

Its because the speed is not a vector....so you find the length between points.... -2 and 6 is 8...and -3 and 3 is 6....do pythagorus and distance is 10....at 4ms it takes 2.5 seconds -

You know the stone reaches the water at 5 seconds, and the tennis ball gets thrown after 2 seconds, therefore the tennis ball has 3 seconds to get to the water at the same time as the ball. So t=3
U=U
You don't need final velocity..
A = 9.8 due to gravity
And you use the exact same S.
The wording in some mechanics questions are a little confusing -

Thanks,,,,I get that but its just the wording of the question, it doesnt say it collides 'just' before hitting the water....it just says before...so the distance travelled could be much less....which gives an extra variable.

Think of it as just before it hits the water.
With mechanics questions sometimes expecting you to answer in terms of variables such as U or h, I try not to presume the distance is the same, but anyway cheers :-) -

yh i know what you mean, but its saying whats the minimum starting speed it can start at so that it still collides before it hits the water. Sure it could go faster and collide before the water, but you want to know the smallest value, which means the colission will just happen as it collides with the water -

For questions involving combined particles, like lifts how do you know which forces to use to find the resultant and whether you use the total mass of the system or just the mass of the lift?

no problem, but remember these are solomon papers, edexcel questions are a lot more straight forward to understand.
... unless your doing AQA then good luck!
Yeah hoping they are straight forward, Im doing physics so I shouldnt be struggling with M1 this much, I just find because of physics I fly through the majority of questions without thinking, then a difficult question comes up and I miss something as simple as the 'minimum' velocity...its worrying lol -

No edexcel...is aqa harder? I heard the core exams are easier for AQA?
