increase). 2 • Angle q = 0° so that the rope is parallel to the board to
ensure pulling force needed is minimal.
4. (a)
• The arrangement for Q is chosen because the board is long,
R rigid, smooth and the pulling force is parallel to the board.

(ii) Initially, the weight of the sphere exceeds the buoyant force
and dragging force. The sphere accelerates. However, as

30 o body to deformation.
(ii) • The thickness of the coil winding for Y is more.

spring to add stability while the boy uses it.
(a) • The seat base should be rough so that the child does not slip
while using it.
• The rider’s spring should be mounted on a coarse fabric
