a=8.88 m/s^2 T=1.75 N I'm sure about this, matched with a lot people
Yea thats right!..I got it wrong though..didnt take both the resistances into account so i got acceleration as 9.2 and hence got the tension wrong..i hope the examiner gives me ECF

it was really hard, ill probably lose around 10-12 marks. i usually get 48-49 out of 50 in other papers. this paper will probably have the lowest percentile, probably around 32 for an A. so dont worry :)
Totally Agree with u!

it is somewhat like this. after the block hits the wall and starts to go back. the speed is greater so rate of decrease in displacement is more. then speed slows down so rate of decrease in displacement also slows down.
