Reveal model answer + marking pointsHide answer▾
From F = G M m / r^2, we get G = F r^2 / (M m). Dimensions: [G] = ([F][r^2]) / ([M][m]) = (M L T^-2 * L^2) / (M * M) = M^-1 L^3 T^-2.
G = F r^2 / (M m)
Marking-scheme points
- ✓Rearrange F = GMm/r^2 for G
- ✓Substitute [F] = M L T^-2
- ✓Final: [G] = M^-1 L^3 T^-2

Motion in a Straight Line
A ball is thrown vertically upward with a speed of 20 m/s. Taking g = 10 m/s^2, find (a) the maximum height reached and (b) the total time before it returns to the thrower's hand.

At maximum height the velocity is zero. (a) h = u^2 / (2g) = (20)^2 / (2*10) = 400/20 = 20 m. (b) Time of flight T = 2u/g = (2*20)/10 = 4 s.
h = u^2/2g ; T = 2u/g
Marking-scheme points
- ✓At top, v = 0
- ✓h = u^2/2g = 20 m
- ✓T = 2u/g = 4 s

Laws of Motion
A 2 kg block resting on a rough horizontal surface (coefficient of friction 0.2) is pulled by a horizontal force of 10 N. Taking g = 10 m/s^2, find its acceleration.
Reveal model answer + marking pointsHide answer▾
Force of friction f = mu * m g = 0.2 * 2 * 10 = 4 N. Net force = applied - friction = 10 - 4 = 6 N. Acceleration a = net force / mass = 6 / 2 = 3 m/s^2.
f = mu m g ; a = (F - f)/m
Marking-scheme points
- ✓f = mu m g = 4 N
- ✓Net force = 10 - 4 = 6 N
- ✓a = F/m = 3 m/s^2
