IMPORTANT! Dear Examinees, after completing your exam first you convert your script
into PDF format after scanning then you submit a single file to this email
[email protected]
The whole procedure have to be completed within next 15 mins from last minute of your
exam. Otherwise you will receive the unchecked copy. Nobody will get to resend for
checking.

READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS FIRST

If you have been given an Answer Booklet, follow the instructions on the front cover of the
Booklet. Write your Centre number, candidate number and name on all the work you hand
in. Write in dark blue or black pen. You may use a soft pencil for any diagrams or graphs.

Do not use staples, paper clips, highlighters, glue or correction fluid.

Answer all the questions.

Given non-exact numerical answers correct to 3 significant figures, or 1 decimal place in the
case of degrees, unless a different level of accuracy is specified in the question.
Where a numerical value for the acceleration due to gravity is needed, use 10 m s . The
use of an electronic calculator is expected, where appropriate. You are reminded of the need
for clear presentation in your answers.

At the end of the examination, fasten all your work securely together.
The number of marks is given in brackets [ ] at the end of each question or part question.
The total number of marks for this paper is 80.

Questions carrying smaller numbers of marks are printed earlier in the paper, and questions
carry numbers of marks later in the paper.
