    Non-uniform circular motion

    oh..sorry i thought everyone was talking about the later part... We just derived it for non-uniform circular motion and apparently it's the exactly the same way as doing it for uniform circular motion

    Non-uniform circular motion

    I believe what is in the syllabus is that you have to learn to derive the tangential and normal components of acceleration for non-uniform circular motion. I still don't think you need to solve problems when the particle is moving in non-uniform circular motion, and since my teacher insists...

    Non-uniform circular motion

    Our teacher gave us a copy of the syllabus, and it says 1989, so I'm pretty sure the syllabus was updated since 1981. It says: 6.3.1 Motion of a particle around a circle and some points about proving angular velocity 6.3.2 Motion of a particle moving with uniform angular velocity around...

    Scholarships.

    if the scholarships are closing on the 30th, does that mean it's due at midnight today, or can we still submit our answers online tomorrow afternoon? I've kept putting off answering the questions since some of them are incredibly annoying and suddenly it's due already :(

    whats the most evil subject?

    I would actually rather be taught proper grammar and spelling english, but my school's teachers insist that it's the content and how you write it that matters, and that they don't deduct marks for horrible spelling.. My english teacher said that apparently by 2020, there won't be anymore...

    Help with arithmetic sequence question

    Tn = 5/2 + (n-1) 5/2 i think?

    another conics Q

    have u got the answer? i'm not sure if this is right.. i hope it is :) d/dx (y^2) = d/dx (4ax) 2y.(dy/dx) = 4a dy/dx = 4a/2y i.e. dy/dx = 2a/y At P (at^2, 2at) -> dy/dx = 2a/2at = 1/t i.e. gradient of normal will be -t y-y1 = m(x-x1) y - 2at = -t (x - at^2) y - 2at = -tx + at^3 For Q, let y...

    quick complex no q from random past paper

    Sketch the graph of arg (conjugate of z) = 45 degrees i'm just confused :confused: i thought it'd just be a reflection of arg z except i'm not really sure after thinking about it... thanks!

    complex numbers

    lol joining in the fun :cool: x^2 + 2xyi - y^2 +2x -2yi + 1 =0 Equating reals: x^2 -y^2 + 2x + 1 = 0 ------------------- [1] Equating imaginary: 2xy - 2y = 0 i.e. 2y(x-1) = 0 y = 0 or x = 1 Sub y = 0 into equation [1] x^2 +2x + 1 = 0 (x...

    a killer locus question

    does (-4,0) have to be considered? I think the pt (4,0) should be excluded from the solution, but i'm probably wrong :)

    differentiation

    to integrate of 5/3x, you need f'(x) on the top and f(x) on the bottom, so take 5 out of the picture: 5 S 1/3x dx (S meaning the integral sign) = 5/3 S 3/3x dx(as you need a 3 on top, you borrow a three and then divide by it) = 5/3 ln 3x + c hope that helps edit*lol i think i posted this a...

    Best Chemistry Textbooks/Guides

    Re: Best Chemistry Textbooks/Guides? i thought the new 2008 excel chem was pretty :D

    Does General scale really badly?

    I don't think in 2/3 u maths it's just memorising formulas, eg in parametrics you actually have to know how to derive the formula, they never just tell you to sub points into the formula. If you read the last questions even in 2u tests, they're quite challenging, which require more thinking than...

    MX2 difficulty...

    uhh am i the only one here who actually finds 4 unit hard? :( I have never been able to do the entire 4u hsc papers without peeking at the solutions, even the more recent easier ones...and someone has got to have found the complex number questions in cambridge hard..lol maybe i'm just hopeless...

    What do you feel when you drop a subject?

    I dropped physics... afterwards i was jumping up and down with joy for a week :haha: I agree, the free periods rock :D
