60 – 46,4 = 13,6 m
OPTION 2/OPSIE 2
Upwards positive/Opwaarts positief:
Δy = v i Δt + ½ aΔt2
= (27,13) (6) + ½ (-9,8)(6)2
= - 13,62 m
Height of balcony/Hoogte van balkon:
= 13,62 m
Downwards positive/Afwaarts positief:

QUESTION 4/VRAAG 4
4.1 40 m∙s-1 east/oos (2)
4.2 The total (linear) momentum remains constant/is conserved
in an isolated/a closed system/the absence of external forces/ if the impulse of
external forces is zero.
Die totale (liniêre) momentum bly konstant/behoue
in 'n geïsoleerde sisteem/geslote sisteem/ die afwesigheid van eksterne
kragte./ indien die impuls van eksterne kragte nul is. (2)
4.3 East positive/Oos positief:
Σp i = Σp f
m(20) + 2m(-20) = (m + 2m)v f
∴v f = -6,67 m·s-1
∴v f = 6,67 m·s-1 west /wes
East negative/Oos negatief:
Σp i = Σp f
m(-20) + 2m(+20) = (m + 2m)v f
∴v f = 6,67 m·s-1 west /wes (6)

5.2 The net (total) work (done on an object) is equal to
the change in kinetic energy (of the object.)
Die netto (totale) arbeid verrig (op 'n voorwerp) is gelyk aan
die verandering in kinetiese energie (van die voorwerp). (2)
5.3
5.3.1 W net = ΔE k /ΔK OR/OF F net Δxcosθ = ½ m(v f 2 – v i 2)
F net (1,02)cos180° = ½ (1 200)(0 – 202)
F net = 235 294,12 N (2,35 x 105 N)
(4)
5.3.2 OPTION 1 /OPSIE 1 OPTION 2/OPSIE 1
F net Δt = mΔv v + vf
Δx = i Δt
∴ (-235 294,12)Δt = (1 200)(0 - 20) 2
∴ Δt = 0,1 s (0,102 s) 20 + 0
1,02 = Δt

QUESTION 6/VRAAG 6
6.1 Frequency/Frekwensie (1)
6.2 There is relative motion between the bird and the bird watcher.
Daar is relatiewe beweging tussen die voël en die voëlkyker nie. (1)
6.3 0,2 m (1)
6.4
6.4.1 v = fλ
340 = f(0,2)
∴ f = 1 700 Hz (3)
6.4.2 v ± vL v
fL = f s OR/OF fL = fs
v ± vs v − vs
340
∴ 1 700 = (1 650)
340 − v s
∴ v s = 10 m∙s-1 (5)
