4 In this question you must show detailed reasoning. The cubic polynomial \(6 x ^ { 3 } + k x ^ { 2 } + 57 x - 20\) is denoted by \(\mathrm { f } ( x )\). It is given that \(( 2 x - 1 )\) is a factor of \(\mathrm { f } ( x )\).

\includegraphics[max width=\textwidth, alt={}, center]{7fc02f90-8f8b-4153-bba1-dc0807124e96-5_421_944_251_242} The diagram shows a model for the roof of a toy building. The roof is in the form of a solid triangular prism \(A B C D E F\). The base \(A C F D\) of the roof is a horizontal rectangle, and the crosssection \(A B C\) of the roof is an isosceles triangle with \(A B = B C\). The lengths of \(A C\) and \(C F\) are \(2 x \mathrm {~cm}\) and \(y \mathrm {~cm}\) respectively, and the height of \(B E\) above the base of the roof is \(x \mathrm {~cm}\). The total surface area of the five faces of the roof is \(600 \mathrm {~cm} ^ { 2 }\) and the volume of the roof is \(V \mathrm {~cm} ^ { 3 }\).
  1. Show that \(V = k x \left( 300 - x ^ { 2 } \right)\), where \(k = \sqrt { a } + b\) and \(a\) and \(b\) are integers to be determined.
  2. Use differentiation to determine the value of \(x\) for which the volume of the roof is a maximum.
  3. Find the maximum volume of the roof. Give your answer in \(\mathrm { cm } ^ { 3 }\), correct to the nearest integer.
  4. Explain why, for this roof, \(x\) must be less than a certain value, which you should state.

9 A crane lifts a car vertically. The car is inside a crate which is raised by the crane by means of a strong cable. The cable can withstand a maximum tension of 9500 N without breaking. The crate has a mass of 55 kg and the car has a mass of 830 kg .
  1. Find the maximum acceleration with which the crate and car can be raised.
  2. Show on a clearly labelled diagram the forces acting on the crate while it is in motion.

10 A particle \(P\) is moving in a straight line. At time \(t\) seconds \(P\) has velocity \(v \mathrm {~ms} ^ { - 1 }\) where \(v = ( 2 t + 1 ) ( 3 - t )\).
  1. Find the deceleration of \(P\) when \(t = 4\).

11 A car starts from rest at a set of traffic lights and moves along a straight road with constant acceleration \(4 \mathrm {~m} \mathrm {~s} ^ { - 2 }\). A motorcycle, travelling parallel to the car with constant speed \(16 \mathrm {~ms} ^ { - 1 }\), passes the same traffic lights exactly 1.5 seconds after the car starts to move. The time after the car starts to move is denoted by \(t\) seconds.
  1. Determine the two values of \(t\) at which the car and motorcycle are the same distance from the traffic lights. These two values of \(t\) are denoted by \(t _ { 1 }\) and \(t _ { 2 }\), where \(t _ { 1 } < t _ { 2 }\).
  2. Describe the relative positions of the car and the motorcycle when \(t _ { 1 } < t < t _ { 2 }\).
  3. Determine the maximum distance between the car and the motorcycle when \(t _ { 1 } < t < t _ { 2 }\). \section*{END OF QUESTION PAPER}
