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.
• Fill
If pencil is used for diagrams/sketches/graphs it must be dark (HB or B).

,1. A particle A has mass 2m and a particle B has mass 3m. The particles are moving in
opposite directions along the same straight line and collide directly.

Immediately before the collision, the speed of A is 2u and the speed of B is u.
Immediately after the collision, the speed of A is 0.5u and the speed of B is w.
Given that the direction of motion of each particle is reversed by the collision,
(a) find w in terms of u
(3)
(b) find the coefficient of restitution between the particles,
(3)
(c) find, in terms of m and u, the magnitude of the impulse received by A in
the collision.
