Mechanics 1 P42 2014; Discussion!

[Vidushi Kaushali]

7i? Isn't that the part where we formed the equations? :/ we've been doing that since forever! Part II was weird tho...I got 3 instead if 2 as the acceleration

even i first got 3 but then i figured out that i haven't applied F=ma for p.

:/ I didn't have time to figure that iut

 

[Omar Shahid]

easy but lengthy

 

[Snowysangel]

It was HORRIBLE

 

[Mushfiqur Rahman]

Are we allowed to discuss answers now ?

 

[Mushfiqur Rahman]

I will be preparing the solutions IN SHA ALLAH .
ALHAMDULILLAH couldn't have given a better M1 paper.

 

[Heyyy]

No.
You'll have to wait till tomorrow morning.
Not before that!!

I formed the equations but not sure if they were right. Cuz, I couldnt relate them to part ii at all..

Was a very good and nice paper Was very easy, though the last question was a new one. I wonder what the GT will be like, my whole class said it was super easy and that they did great while majority here are saying that it was tough.

Well excluding Q7, paper was easy. I am expecting GT to be somewhere 40--43
Pray please!

Were you born on another planet? LOL! The GT in nov 2013 was less than 40 even though the paper was easy. GT will probably be below 36

Could anybody with a certainty tell me if we have ECF in mathematics? Say, in Q6, instead of using velocity as 6, I used 8, my starting value obtained would be wrong and hence all the following values too. So, will I lost all my marks or just 1-3 for that mistake?

Hey Mushfiq! Al7amdulillah, same here! Joss chilona?!

 

[Alfiko]

the threshold may be low...

 

[Alfiko]

plus the last question is the new type of question they asked for 42

 

[salma_69]

guys how much should i lose in both M1 and P1 in combination to get a high A......???

We cant know now the exact GT, but I would tell you to take a look at the older Grade Thresholds and have an idea.

i actually did that
but as this year's exams are somehow different there might be big changes...
lets say if i lost 20 marks in total can i still expect a high A or will it be a low one.....

What's up with people saying the paper was very easy? You could say the paper was easy and I would believe you. But people who are saying the paper was very easy, I really don't believe them . Anyway I would be getting around 45/50 Inshallah. But I got help because I study further maths whose mechanics is about ten times harder than that that of M1. But I really don't think everyone could do this paper. Anyways good luck for the rest of the maths exams.

 

[Altamash Haroon]

In my opinion, honestly speaking, this was the most difficult M1 paper i've ever seen. Had a lot of new type of questions that have not been seen before in M1. Expecting the threshold for A to be between 30 and 32.
