    HSC Physics Marathon 2013-2015 Archive

    re: HSC Physics Marathon Archive The classical theory of physics predicts that the shorter than wavelength of EMR absorbed, the more intense the radiation released. However this meant that it would violate the conservation of energy as the area under a black body curve would be infinite. The...

    How do you indicate a change of narrator or time?

    Eg: If you have a narrative structure that start on a particular date, then goes back in time, how would you indicate there's a change? Or, if you are speaking from a third person view at the start of a creative, and then want to switch to 1st person, is there a particular way to go about it? If...

    HSC Physics Marathon 2013-2015 Archive

    re: HSC Physics Marathon Archive When a rocket is being launched, high pressure gasses that are produced from combustion between the fuel and oxidant are ejected towards the ground. Newton's third law, that every actions has an equal and opposite reaction, means that the gasses will impart an...

    Business studies is killing me right now :̣̣( What should i do?

    Only thing you need to outright memorise is facts and figures (EG: apple's profit). To use case studies, an example would be (I haven't done business for a year so will be a bit rusty) for marketing. When talking about how price is used to create an image for a product, you could use apple as a...

    Business studies is killing me right now :̣̣( What should i do?

    I got 11/20 for the case study in last years HSC cause I misinterpreted the question, if that helps you feel better lol. I don't think you can top a fail worse than that

    2007 hsc q.15

    I think its trying to test you to see if you know that E=mc^2 is not the conservation of energy but rather mass-energy equivalence

    Square rooting of asymptotes in curve sketching

    If you have an obligue asymptote in a graph, say y=x, and you are graphing "y=square root f(x)", does the asymptote become y=rootx? Just asking cause I'm looking as solutions where they don't change the asymptote but that seems weird

    Help study question please for someone who is behind

    just do past papers you should do so many that you get sick of answering the same questions

    Physics or Chemistry???????

    To spice it up a bit and make your decision harder I really like physics and hate chemistry. Generally I've found that if you have a good memory you will do well in chemistry, if you are good conceptually you will do well in physics. If you can get your head around the concepts in physics, it...

    re: HSC Physics Marathon Archive 1.3m from the ground? So 0.3m from the platform? Is he lying down, firing tacos like a sniper or what :rolleyes:

    2 quick fire questions

    I've been using & since primary school, its a force of habit (I would have to make a conscious effort not to do it) and does save me a few seconds!

    2 quick fire questions

    1) Blue or black pen? I know black is allowed but is blue permitted? 2) How is '&' seen by the markers? Do they not like it, or perhaps see it as lazy?

    How to get a band 6 in essays

    I wouldn't mind if they asked, everyone would be as screwed as I would be lol. At least there's a pretty good chance we won't get an extract. I'm hoping the question is to do with Renaissance Humanism vs Medieval beliefs, however unlikely that is

    As long as they don't ask to write about an intense character relationship its all G (nek minut the question is to discuss the role of women in hamlet)

    An atar of 95?

    Considering you are first in pretty much all your subjects and then second for the one you aren't first... you could get 99.95, its in your hands and depends purely on how you do I suppose.

    Blackbody curve

    Yes, just know it peaks at UV instead of going exponentially up to infinity as classical physics predicted
