Complete to indicate whether each of the quantities is a vector or a scalar. quantity vector or scalar acceleration speed power A ball is projected with a horizontal velocity of 1.1 m s–1 from point A at the edge of a table, as shown in . table ball 1.1 m s–1 path of ball horizontal ground B A 0.43 m The ball lands on horizontal ground at point B which is a distance of 0.43 m from the base of the table. Air resistance is negligible. Calculate the time taken for the ball to fall from A to B. time = s Use your answer in to determine the height of the table. height = m The ball leaves the table at time t = 0. For the motion of the ball between A and B, sketch graphs on to show the variation with time t of 1. the acceleration a of the ball, 2. the vertical component sv of the displacement of the ball from A. Numerical values are not required. t a t sv A ball of greater mass is projected from the table with the same velocity as the ball in . Air resistance is still negligible. State and explain the effect, if any, of the increased mass on the time taken for the ball to fall to the ground.

Explain what is meant by work done, kinetic energy. A leisure-park ride consists of a carriage that moves along a railed track. Part of the track lies in a vertical plane and follows an arc XY of a circle of radius 13 m, as shown in . 22 m s–1 carriage mass 580 kg track 13 m 13 m X Y The mass of the carriage is 580 kg. At point X, the carriage has velocity 22 m s–1 in a horizontal direction. The velocity of the carriage then decreases to 12 m s–1 in a vertical direction at point Y. For the carriage moving from X to Y 1. show that the decrease in kinetic energy is 9.9 × 104 J, 2. calculate the gain in gravitational potential energy. gain in gravitational potential energy = J Show that the length of the track from X to Y is 20 m. Use your answers in and to calculate the average resistive force acting on the carriage as it moves from X to Y. resistive force = N Describe the change in the direction of the linear momentum of the carriage as it moves from X to Y. Determine the magnitude of the change in linear momentum when the carriage moves from X to Y. change in momentum = N s

For the deformation of a wire under tension, define stress, strain. A wire is fixed at one end so that it hangs vertically. The wire is given an extension x by suspending a load F from its free end. The variation of F with x is shown in . 0.1 0.2 0.3 0.4 x / mm F / N 0.5 0.6 0.7 0.8 The wire has cross-sectional area 9.4 × 10–8 m2 and original length 2.5 m. Describe how measurements can be taken to determine accurately the cross-sectional area of the wire. Determine the Young modulus E of the material of the wire. E = Pa Use to calculate the increase in the energy stored in the wire when the load is increased from 2.0 N to 4.0 N. increase in energy = J The wire in is replaced by a new wire of the same material. The new wire has twice the length and twice the diameter of the old wire. The new wire also obeys Hooke’s law. On , sketch the variation with extension x of the load F for the new wire from x = 0 to x = 0.80 mm.
