A block is released from rest at the top of a slope inclined at an angle θ to the horizontal. The slope has length L as shown in the diagram. [Figure 15.1] There are no resistive forces acting on the block. What is the speed of the block at the bottom of the slope?

This question uses a diagram from the original paper, which isn't shown here. Open the full paper from the past papers archive to see it.

A4.43 √(Lcosθ)
B4.43 √(Lsinθ)
C19.6 √(Lcosθ)
D19.6 √(Lsinθ)

✓ Correct answer

B: 4.43 √(Lsinθ)
