Space and motors &generators compulsory pracs (1 Viewer)

[shagz_04]

um, i dont know if this is the right area to ask q's, but if it isnt im sorry to take up ppl's time and space (no pun intended).
I was just wondering if anyone knows exactly what complusory pracs yr 12 physics is meant to do for space and motors and generators. we've had a change of teachers and the new one hasnt got a clue what we should have (lol)

thanks

ummm for space we did 2 pracs:
1) rolled a ball off a curved ramp on the edge of a table to demonstrate the effects of projectile motion.
2) centripetal force prac (too much typing involved in describing it...)

for motors and generators we didn't do any individual ones, we just observed the teacher showing us how:
1) motors worked
2) induction motors worked

1. Get the HSC Physics Syllabus from http://www.boardofstudies.nsw.edu.au/syllabus_hsc/pdf_doc/physics_stg6_syl_03.pdf

2. Scroll down to Part 9.2 and 9.3(edit: i think) and read the dot points in the right most column. They are the dot pts 4 pracs and research components

3. The dotpts with words like 'Perform a first hand investigation...' indicate an compulsory experiment
