7 A plane is inclined at \(30 ^ { \circ }\) above the horizontal. A particle is projected up the plane from a point C on the plane with a velocity of \(14 \mathrm {~m} \mathrm {~s} ^ { - 1 }\) at \(40 ^ { \circ }\) above a line of greatest slope of the plane. The particle hits the plane at D. See Fig. 7. \begin{figure}[h]

  1. Using the standard model for projectile motion, show that the time of flight, \(T\), is given by $$T = \frac { 28 \sin 40 ^ { \circ } } { g \cos 30 ^ { \circ } }$$
  2. Calculate the distance CD. \section*{END OF QUESTION PAPER} OCR is committed to seeking permission to reproduce all third-party content that it uses in the assessment materials.
