    Chemistry Summary

    Computerfaction? I remember a user called daedalus trading for essays for his chem summaries from computerfaction.com.au.. anyways if those notes are the same, then yes they are very good notes :) edit : Just wondering, if the whole state gets really high, does that mean scaling goes down?

    Simple question(s) that needs an answer

    nope, scales display in kg wT. :p Because the question says specifically that it is calibrated for the earth or designed for earth, then even if they have an inbuilt acceleration sensor, they would perform as if they are on the earth.

    harder rate of change

    The derivatives are very very complicated., those thetas hurt my eyes! How much marks would this question worth? I hope i'll never get one of these questions in a real HSC :D reminds me of the CSSA..

    harder rate of change

    I did a mistake on the rate of change, it is 12 times the value of that, i was thinking minute arrow instead of hours :) Anwyays, aren't you supposed to maximise the speed? "At the moment when the distance between the two tips is increasing most rapidly" edit 2: For the second part, my...

    harder rate of change

    Yeah, i was thinking some advanced trig.. did you get 25-24 cos(11@) as D<sup>2</sup>?

    harder rate of change

    Is the distance between them sqrt(7) cm? rate of change 1.237 per second?

    harder rate of change

    For the hour arm: let H<sub>x</sub> = 3cos(@) H<sub>y</sub> = 3sin(@) For the minute arm: let M<sub>x</sub> = 4cos(12@) M<sub>y</sub> = 4sin(12@) D<sup>2</sup> = (4cos(12@) - 3cos(@))<sup>2</sup> + (4sin(12@) - 3sin(@))<sup>2</sup> where D is distance between the two tips...

    My tutor is better than your tutor

    A trial HSC exam? That's interesting, where can I get some infos? I could probably get some friends to come if the prices are good :)

    M&G: Edison vs Westinghouse

    That's because of Tesla. Tesla went to edison's DC company, but then soon quit. After that, tesla sold the AC patents to westinghouse, and westinghouse owned DC soonafter. Hence, Tesla owned Edison. It's kind-of funny, because tesla worked for less than a year at Edison's company before...

    Simple question(s) that needs an answer

    But those simple minded people forgot that weights can't measure your mass in the moon / mars, since it was designed for the earth. :p Repeating in the same school? That's very brave actually..

    Simple question(s) that needs an answer

    I have, but the internal assessment mark was so botched, I deserved it because of bludging. Hence, I'm repeating. Good thing i was accelerated, so the shame of repeating is less than half. Imagine repeating full year! I'd have to move school for that :p Can someone confirm the third...

    So, let Bob throw a coin twice, and penny once. There is a 1/2 chance of bob getting more heads than penny? I still don't get it..

    medical physics Q

    Free dot point for you :p It is seemingly impossible to imagine the method people used to diagnose cancer before the invention of x-rays. It's invention has allowed a much easier diagnosis method for doctors. Prior to these imaging techniques, the only way a scientists can learn more about...

    shallow probability

    Hey, if it really is 50-50, next time you want to toss a coin with someone, toss twice and point to this thread :) Im thinking the chance of getting more should be in the ratio of n+1:n..
