    complex numbers question

    its basically because if you want a vector that doesn't start at the origin you do endpt - startpt since its QO and not OQ, endpt is O startpt is q

    Re: Where can you get a collection of all past Maintaing a Balance Questions from the don't the success one books do this?

    Integration Area - Parabola and a line Questions

    For the triangle APB, the base length is distance AB and the height you get using the perp dist eqn using P and x-y+6=0. Using area=bh/2, you can get an equation for the area in terms of p, which you can differentiate and find the max value of. Evaluate the given integral and show that the max...

    Quadratic question

    Let the length PA = x. Therefore QA = p-x. If you sub in all your values, you get a quadratic equation in x with p as a constant. The use quadratic equation.

    Difference between normal force and reaction force?

    The reaction force is always in the opposite direction of the applied force. The normal force is perpendicular to the surface that the object is in contact with.

    Formal and graduation ideas

    no you don't have to but it is the safe option you can mix and match colours if you know what you are doing btw why is this in chemistry?

    kinetic energy at an infinite distance away

    oh ok so for escape velocity if you were to throw an object away from a planet at escape velocity, it would break free from the gravitational attraction. This implies that it would never come back down. It keeps going until it reaches the "peak" of its motion where it final velocity is 0...

    kinetic energy at an infinite distance away

    did you mean gravitational potential energy? because otherwise i have never heard of this

    Units in Chemistry textbooks

    the SI unit for density is kg/m^3

    Trig. Help

    lol beat me

    Trig. Help

    if the range for theta os 0 to 360, then the range for 2theta is 0 to 720 you should get 4 answers

    Coordinate Geometry

    same thing. multiply both sides by 3 then move the y over. the form they gave you is the general form and the answer you got is the gradient-intercept form.

    Coordinate Geometry

    what is the answer supposed to be?

    Argument of a function - what?

    the tangent must pass through 2 points: (2, -12) and (a, a^2). it must also have a gradient of 2a. try putting these two conditions together
  15. P

    Exact Values...

    for q1 first find sec(45) then determine whether it would be +ve or -ve based on quadrants. same for q2

    maths prelim question

    (x+2)^2 = (2x-3)^2 + (x+3)^2 - 2(2x-3)(x+3)cos(90-q)
  17. P

    maths prelim question

    it isnt, the markings on the diagram are wrong. i repeat cos rule anyone?
  18. P

    maths prelim question

    cant you just use the cos rule since cos(90-q) = sin q
  19. P

    Argument of a function - what?

    you're basically just finding the equation of the tangent at x=1/4

    Year 11 Physics Question - Motion

    assuming there is no initial velocity (it was dropped not thrown downwards) you can use s=0.5at^2
