    Well, you got the graph right, but I don't see how it's a minimum at x = 3.

    Graphing Question

    Hi guys, I almost got this question right from the 2009 NSGHS Trials. 9 (b): A continuous function is defined by the following features. y'' > 0 for x < -1 and 1 < x < 3 . y' = 0 only when x = -3, 1, and 5 . y = 0 only when x = 1. Sketch a possible graph of the function. I took y'' > 0...

    Help with an Indochina Essay

    I was looking at Diem's consolidation to power, such as suppressing the various Sects, the November 1954 coup and the Denunciation campaign for starters. I understand that US aid was used to bribe the sects and that Lansdale intervened and prevented the coup, but did the South NEED this aid, or...

    Upcoming physics trials

    Yep, both answers are ~3.2 hours. The questions are the same, in the second question, the Earth will be travelling away from the spaceship at 0.95C so the astronaut will see time take longer.

    Help with an Indochina Essay

    Hey, Could you please give me some tips on this essay question? "To what extent did the South Vietnamese government depend on the United States for its survival in the period from 1954 to 1965?" I keep thinking that the US is aiding the South due to their own objectives such as containment...

    Magnetic Flux vs. Time

    D is another sine curve. A negative cosine curve would be A, as the OP had answered. In regards to the HSC question that I posted earlier, there are other questions that use non-linear curves that give the same answer. The Jacaranda textbook also agrees with me (page 137 of the 2nd Edition)...

    Magnetic Flux vs. Time

    Lets say this was a short answer question, how would you answer it? I doubt you could just say "because it's in a solenoid shouldn't the way just be the opposite?" I'm not trying to be rude or anything, but could you give a more qualitative answer? :)

    Missed Trial

    Hey, I missed my school trials (economics) last term due to a broken wrist playing soccer. I have obvious evidence such as my hospital statement and cast.
