Ignore air resistance. 60o 30 m s-1 Fig 1.1 (a) Show that the time taken for the object to reach its maximum height is 2.6 s. [1] (b) Sketch the variation with time t of the vertical component of the velocity vy on Fig. 1.2, from the time it leaves the ground to the time it returns to the ground.

[1] (ii) the variation of the horizontal component of the velocity vx with time of the object for the duration of time in flight if air resistance is not negligible. Label this line B. [2] (d) A second object is launched at the same instant with the same speed but at an angle of 30o above the ground. Air resistance is negligible. Determine the vertical displacement between the two objects at 2.6 s. Fig. 1.2 vx / m s-1 t/s 0 10 20 30 1.0 2.0 3.0 4.0 5.0 Fig. 1.3

[1] (b) A rigid bar of mass 450 g is held horizontally by two supports A and B, as shown in Fig. 2.1 Fig. 2.1 The support A is 45 cm from the centre of gravity C of the bar and support B is 25 cm from C. A ball of mass 140 g falls vertically onto the bar such that it hits the bar at a distance of 50 cm from C, as shown in
