CAPE Physics Unit 1 · 2017 · Paper 2 · Question 1(a)

A block of mass 0.50 kg slides down a frictionless inclined plane, with its base touching a vertical wall. The block is released from rest at the top, and its velocity (v) at various times (t) is recorded.

On the grid provided in Figure 2 (page 7), plot a graph of velocity, v, versus time, t.

This question uses a figure or table from the paper — you'll see it when you practise.
