STEP 2 Mechanics
This module introduces you to STEP 2 questions which involve Mechanics. This STEP 2 module consists of 7 STEP questions, some topic notes and useful formulae, a "hints" sheet and a "solutions" booklet. STEP questions are challenging, so don't worry if you get stuck. These STEP 2 modules assume that you have already begun to develop your problem-solving skills and approach to STEP questions by working on the Foundation modules.
About this assignment
This assignment offers a selection of four questions on aspects of the STEP 2 Mechanics specification, together with some guidelines on what you need to know in order to solve them. Unlike Pure questions, you are required to do some modelling which involves drawing clear diagrams and stating your assumptions clearly, before getting stuck in to some algebra. Two of these questions are old STEP I questions from before the 2019 specification changes.
Hints, support and self evaluation
The “Hints" file gives suggestions and some starting points on how you can tackle the questions. The "Solutions" file leads you through one possible solution, but some steps will be missing and you will still need to work through the question yourself.
