Thank you!! :D So my parts i,iii and iv are correct, 2 marks lost in this question. 4-5 in question 6 means I'm in the 40s zone. Alhamdulilah, initially I thought I was in late-20s/early-30s! JazakAllah Khair :) Good luck with Math P3 and other exams. :)
MashaaAllah :p
Same goes to you! May Allah help you with the rest.

I think that you have a mistake in question 6.
The answer to part one should be 17.5, as net force will be equal to 15.5 so upthrust - weight = 15.5.
Weight would not stop acting when it enters liquid.
Where does tension come into place in your equation? And I did account for the weight. ;)

Nuh-uh. When you resolve for A and B, friction's perpendicular to the direction of the tensions. It doesn't come into it.
my tution sir made us do a question of this type. I re asked him after the paper he said it had to be done.
