I think parts of this paper were tough, and different to other questions on past papers. I reckon the angle for the COM question, the value of a/b and a few other tricky parts will have caught people out...

I'd hazard a guess at 60 for an A maybe.... Which means about 67 for an A*

Does it matter if I have got a slip of pen from writing down wrong masses(correct mass ratio) but I have
all the answers correct in question 4?Do they deduct me one mark or cross out the whole question ?

I spent way too much time on the last question wondering how Q could just stop dead. I got the answer right but wasted a lot of time! Didn't get chance to finish the hexagon one off because of that :frown:

Fingers crossed for scraping 90%!

I need lower than this, I'd rather prefer it being in the mid 50's really! :biggrin:

Would people think there was a mistake with the greatest speed question? Surely for 5 marks you'd want the minimum value?

do you think it being a replacement paper makes any difference at all regarding difficulty? just curious as to your view on the matter

Posted from TSR Mobile

I had forgotten about that! no idea, wait until I have seen what should have been the original; I might be able to get my paws on it tomorrow.

Same here, hopefully we'll get 4/5 marks then and I'll get a few more for the other part. Just awful exam to do under the exam pressure.

i wrote minimum value of velocity but found it strange, so i added more about when it is greather than 20, (proved its when t>7 which is outside the range) but im not too sure.
