Candidates may use any calculator permitted by Pearson regulations. Calculators

must not have the facility for symbolic algebra manipulation, differentiation and
integration, or have retrievable mathematical formulae stored in them.
Instructions
•• Use black ink or ball‑point pen.
If pencil is used for diagrams/sketches/graphs it must be dark (HB or B).
• Fill in the boxes at the top of this page with your name,
centre number and candidate number.
•• Answer all questions and ensure that your answers to parts of questions are clearly labelled.
Answer the questions in the spaces provided
– there may be more space than you need.
• You should show sufficient working to make your methods clear.
Answers without working may not gain full credit.
• Whenever a numerical value of g is required, take g = 9.8 m s–2, and give your answer to either
2 significant figures or 3 significant figures.
Information
•• A booklet ‘Mathematical Formulae and Statistical Tables’ is provided.
There are 8 questions in this question paper. The total mark for this paper is 75.
• The marks for each question are shown in brackets
– use this as a guide as to how much time to spend on each question.
Advice
•• Read each question carefully before you start to answer it.
Try to answer every question.
•• Check your answers if you have time at the end.
If you change your mind about an answer, cross it out and put your new answer and any
working underneath.

The fixed point A is h metres vertically above the point O that is on horizontal ground.
At time t = 0, a particle P is projected from A with speed 10 m s–1. The particle moves freely
under gravity. At time t = 2.5 seconds, P strikes the ground at the point B. At the instant
when P strikes the ground, the speed of P is 18 m s–1, as shown in Figure 4.
(a) By considering energy, find the value of h.
(3)

(b) Find the distance OB.

(5)
As P moves from A to B, the speed of P is less than or equal to 8 m s–1 for T seconds.
(c) Find the value of T
