  • Question in HELM books by Merryn Horrocks

    Given that the circle touches the x-axis at a given point and given a point on the circumference, find the equation of the circle.

  • In this question the students have to solve a linear recurrence of order 2. The sequence is asked in recurrence form and the goal is to find its closed form.

  • Reaction forces
    Ready to use

    Students need to find solution to simultaneous linear equations with randomised coefficients.

  • Plane height
    Draft

    This question asks students to find the distance from an aircraft to a given marker. Angle of depression of 2 markers from the aircraft are given and the distance between the markers on the ground (all randomised). Students need to use the sine rule to find the answer. The workding of the question makes googling the answer difficult.

  • Particle displacement

    Question in MfEP Progress Quizzes by Don Shearman and 1 other

    Question asks student to find zeros of a quadratic equation - disguised as finding time for particle to reach a given position. In this version students are expected to write up their working and submit it seperately to the Numbas question. Students are expcted to recognise that only the positive solution has physical significance. Coefficients of the quadratic are randomly chosen within linits which give one positive and one negative root.
