UACE Applied Mathematics Paper 2 (P425/2) – Mechanics, Statistics and Numerical Methods

This is an A-level Applied Mathematics Paper 2 (P425/2) exam set out in the format of the Uganda Advanced Certificate of Education. It takes three hours. Section A has eight compulsory short questions worth 40 marks. In Section B, candidates choose five of eight longer questions worth 60 marks. The paper covers power and work done on an incline, the binomial and uniform distributions, linear interpolation and the trapezium rule, and resultant forces. It also tests centres of gravity of laminae, connected particles with friction, and grouped-data statistics. Other questions deal with error analysis, iterative formulas with flowcharts, normal distribution confidence intervals and relative velocity. It is useful for revision and exam practice.
