Question 1a
A sledge accelerates, due to gravity, from rest down a frictionless slope. Air resistance can be ignored. The slope is at an
angle of 6.9° to the horizontal, as shown.
Complete the free‐body force diagram below for the sledge.
[2 marks]
Question 1b
The slope has a total length of 60m
i) show that the initial acceleration of the sledge along the slope is about 1 m s
Time taken = ........................................ (2)
ii) Determine the speed of the sledge at the end of the slope.
Speed at end of slope = ......................................... (2)
(iii) Determine the time taken for the sledge to travel to the end of the slope.
Time taken = ........................................(2)

Question 2a
A trolley accelerates from rest at point A, down a straight track to point B. The trolley then continues along a horizontal track
to point C, as shown.
The effects of air resistance and friction are negligible.
Show that the trolley reaches point B with a speed of about 3 m s−1 .

Question 2b
Determine the time taken by the object to move from point A to point C.
Time taken = ..........................

Question 3a
A skier moving at 25 m s−1 skis o a ramp. The ramp is angled upwards at 10° to the horizontal, as shown.
There is a flat surface that starts 30 m from the ramp. The flat surface is 2.9 m below the ramp.
Deduce whether the skier reaches the flat surface before landing. You may ignore any e ects of air resistance.

Question 3b
Another skier travels along the horizontal surface with an initial speed of 23 m s−1 .
She comes to rest after travelling a distance of 43 m.
Calculate the average force required to bring the skier to rest.
mass of skier = 63 kg
Average force = .............................
