The fragment of mass 2.0M has a velocity of 6.0 m s–1 at angle θ to line AB. The fragment of mass 1.5M has a velocity of 8.0 m s–1 at angle θ to line AB. Use the principle of conservation of momentum to determine θ. θ = ° Calculate the ratio kinetic energy of fragment of mass 2.0M kinetic energy of fragment of mass 1.5M . ratio =

A child on a sledge slides down a steep hill and then travels in a straight line up an ice-covered slope, as illustrated in . A B ice-covered slope child and sledge total mass 70 kg 18 m s–1 (not to scale) The sledge passes point A with speed 18 m s–1 at time t = 0 and then comes to rest at point B. The child applies a brake to the sledge at point B. The brake does not keep the sledge stationary and it immediately slides back down the slope towards A. The variation with time t of the velocity v of the sledge from t = 0 to t = 24 s is shown in . –10 v / m s–1 t / s State the time taken for the sledge to travel from A to B. time = s Determine the displacement of the sledge up the slope from point A at time t = 24 s. displacement = m Show that the acceleration of the sledge as it moves from B back towards A is 0.50 m s–2. The child and sledge have a total mass of 70 kg. The component of the total weight of the child and sledge that acts down the slope is 80 N. Determine the frictional force on the sledge as it moves from B towards A, frictional force = N the angle θ of the slope to the horizontal. θ = ° The child on the sledge blows a whistle between t = 4.0 s and t = 8.0 s. The whistle emits sound of frequency 900 Hz. The speed of the sound in the air is 340 m s–1. A man standing at point A hears the sound. Use to determine the initial frequency of the sound heard by the man, initial frequency = Hz describe and explain qualitatively the variation, if any, in the frequency of the sound heard by the man.

Define the wavelength of a progressive wave. State what is meant by an antinode of a stationary wave. A loudspeaker producing sound of constant frequency is placed near the open end of a pipe, as shown in . pipe speed 0.75 cm s–1 piston loudspeaker x A movable piston is at distance x from the open end of the pipe. Distance x is increased from x = 0 by moving the piston to the left with a constant speed of 0.75 cm s–1. The speed of the sound in the pipe is 340 m s–1. A much louder sound is first heard when x = 4.5 cm. Assume that there is an antinode of a stationary wave at the open end of the pipe. Determine the frequency of the sound in the pipe. frequency = Hz After a time interval, a second much louder sound is heard. Calculate the time interval between the first louder sound and the second louder sound being heard. time interval = s

A solid cylinder is lifted out of oil by a wire attached to a motor. shows two different positions X and Y of the cylinder during the lifting process. wire cylinder at position X motor beam velocity 0.020 m s–1 surface of oil oil cylinder at position Y The motor is fixed to an overhead beam. The cylinder has cross-sectional area 0.018 m2, length 1.2 m and weight 560 N. The density of the oil is 940 kg m–3. Throughout the lifting process, the cylinder moves vertically upwards with a constant velocity of 0.020 m s–1. The viscous force of the oil acting on the cylinder is negligible. Calculate the density of the cylinder. density = kg m–3 For the cylinder at position X, show that the upthrust due to the oil is 200 N. Calculate, for the moving cylinder at position X, the tension in the wire, tension = N the power output of the motor. power = W The cylinder is raised with constant velocity from position X to position Y. State and explain the variation, if any, of the power output of the motor as the cylinder is raised. Numerical values are not required. The rate of energy output of the motor is less than the rate of increase of gravitational potential energy of the cylinder. Without calculation, explain this difference.
