Damn I said I'd do this too! Still nothing haga

If you're confident with the subjects you choose, and can be in the top group of people in each subject, you definitely can achieve that with your subjects as they are good scaling subjects, but achieving an ATAR that high with any subject combination requires hard work and dedication in my...

I cook for my family yes, the quality of that cooking is another matter though!

Well I theoretically (assuming complete combustion) there should be no peak and decrease in the potential energy as the carbon chain increases. As with each -CH2- link added, more bonds with more energy potential is gained, this should allow for a greater heat of combustion, as it is the...

First pref: aero (mechanical) Second pref: mechanical Want to do a double with physics or chem though

Hey anomalous are you suggesting there is a peak in energy potentials as the carbon chain increases and then drops off? Sorry if it's an obvious answer from your above post, was just a bit confused

Also, the reason higher mass molecules generally have higher energy potentials is because there are more bonds to be broken and bonds contain that energy. This explanation is rather simplistic but depth in this area isn't required

Heat of combustion means the amount of energy that is released when a substance is burnt. So as ethanol as a lower heat of combustion it means it will produce less energy when burnt ( combusted) by oxygen. As you're using a vehicle as an example, if you fill a 40L tank with ethanol, less energy...

Science education Would be gutted if I didn't get my first choice :P

The maths is basic for physics, but a good understanding of mathematical thinking and processes used, can help a lot, Particularly in more complex projectile motion

Haha yeah this ^ The day you get the assignment notice, just go home and write up a plan, like if you have 4 weeks or whatever break it into chunks, with deadlines each week for how much you want to have completed at that point. I would try and finish it a week before the due date, so I could...

Great thread mate, will hit this on to my sister

Health plays a huge factor, well for me it did anyway. For me I could see the difference each day depending on what I are that day. Be positive too and just try to not be hard on yourself when making mistakes

Yeah my desire for knowledge has increased dramatically in recent years, makes learning so much easier :)

Yeah me too

Personal satisfaction and to prove people they were wrong about me hahaha

Finish homework in free periods, otherwise it consumes your afternoons and study time :)
