Cool i gt same answer but you know in the last part were we calculate force i used sin a instead of replacing it with 0.125 and my answer using sin a is 984936 and if replaced with 0.125 the answer wud be 985000 so its a bit near to that , will i lose marks? My method and angle was right except that I used sin a instead of replacing it with 0.125

1, i think.

As consant speed so force up the plane = force acting down the plane on object!!!!
800N + (12500Sin(7.18)) = 2362.33N
Now work = 2362.33 x 400 = 944934.5 = 945000J

Is mai 12500sin (7.18) is dwn the plane component!
Why didnt u add potential energy to it?

okay, I think Mechanics paper 42 was easy.
A good number of people in my hall found it easy like me.

I don't think it was as tough as Winter 2011 as ImaamMalik said.

However, I made one silly mistake.

in no. 6 i,

it is Fs = 800X400 + 1250X0.125X10x400.
= 945 000.

I forgot to multiply the mass by 10 ! :(.

will they cut the hwole 3 marks for that question or only one accuracy mark ? :(

DAMN I thought I could get a 100 in this paper :(.

I did so coz i didnt use the energy formula! I used the other method in which Force up the plane is equal to force down the plane! So no potential energy it!! Lol! Answer and concpt is right so INSHALLAH sahi hai! Many of my friends did via this method!! :p
