The secret are you edexcel?
and By the way in MJ 2011 P41 the meu(u) was over one, my teacher told me its correct but it can never go beyond 1,so this was a trick?
Last thing is that how do u calculate squared trigonometry fuction,eg:
tan^2(Theta)= -0.56

Yupp, I am Edexcel and I assume the paper you're talking about is CIE!

Can someone please explain to me how do you solve Q7d in January 2010, Q7c in January 2008, Q7f in January 2007 [Edexcel papers]?

Thank you  ;D

A light elastic string of natural length 1.6m has modulus of elasticity 100N. One end of the string
is attached to a fixed point. A particle of mass 4 kg is attached to the other end. Find the extension,
e metres, of the string when the particle hangs freely in equilibrium at E.[2]

When the particle is in equilibrium at E, it is given a blow of impulse 20Ns vertically downwards.
Show that, while the string remains taut, the motion of the particle is simple harmonic, and find the
period and amplitude of this simple harmonic motion. [8]

Find also the time that elapses between the blow and the instant when the string first becomes slack.
[4]

The first part is easy to get... but i am having difficulties in the subsequent parts... please help

MJ 2003 P4, q 5 ii . PLEASE ASAP!

Consider the two particles to be one single particle of mass 0.4 kg.

Hence,

0.4*10 - (0.4+0.2) = 0.4*a

a = 8.5

Now consider only one of the particles (I will use particle B) :

B has its weight acting downwards, tension upwards and air resistance of force 0.2 N.

Keeping in mind that B is accelerating at 8.5 m/s2 can you calculate the tension ?

Thank you  ;D

Jan 08 ; Q.7]c)  the fact that you ignored the mass/weight of the particles A and B.  

for such Questions I suggest you read chapter one in the book *the ones with only words and definitions*

Jan 07 : Q.7]f)

16:00 - 14:00 = 2 hrs

at 16:00  , t = 2hrs

11i + (17+10) j

rShip = 11i = 27j

S from R  i.e. RS

RS = rShip - rrock

= (11i + 27j ) - (8.5 + 23 j )
= (2.5 + 4j )

distance RS = square root of (2.52) + (42)

Distance RS = 4.72 Km

I think you've solved the wrong questions,

For Q7c in Jan 2008, the question was find the speed of A as it reaches P!

& for 7f in Jan 2007, it's a question from Dynamics not vectors

I know they are many but please if anyone could explain how we solve them ?
Thanks in advance :D
Know how to ask. There is nothing more difficult for some people, nor for others, easier.

Hey guyz
like i knw the forces tension nd recently thrust arre there any oder such forces found in connected particles ?

and plz wid a diagram can som1 explain thrust (pushing force) clearly

thanku
