Yeah, I'm not liking mechanics either. It's the teacher's worst topic and it was for questions like this that I dropped physics =P Teacher's just advised me to skip the mechanics questions in exams unless they're pretty easy 'cause then I can focus on acing the first 4 questions or so. I'm okay...

Wow, AmenoKirarou that's great. I did well in my continuers trial. I think I did the one the abbostleigh lady writes. 25/25 for reading 19/20 for speaking 13.5/15 for writing 20/25 for listening. I completely ruined the very last 5 mark listening question and had no idea. Annoying because...

Probably not 4u question but I do 4u and the other girl in my classs couldn't get it so hopefully one of you will be able to =P A cylinder is inscribed in a right circlular cone. Find when the total surface area of the cylinder is a maximum. The answer's " h/r = cot -2" and I'm assuming...

Hmm. Well it might be a bit late as it's on monday, but I would've suggested an explorative journey narrative for physical journeys. Something like "Journey to the center of the earth" or "Huck Finn" they're good. I'm doing Im. Journeys so I dunno what aspects they focus on in physical. Maybe...

When it comes to such matters, it's usually reccomended that one considers the principle of "Occam's razor" which states that with any hypothesis we should make a few assumptions as possible. For me, the quantity of evidence pointing to an evolution of man (or something very simmilar) requires...

Oh, vafa, my teacher it did it my way (letting alpha =[ x±(x²-4)^(½) ] / 2 ) and after a bit of working it came out anyways, I just some algebraic errors. Thanks for your help though!

Ah, thanks, I did it with the general eqt. for cubic and eventually got it. Thanks for the help! :)

I know this is really stupid and I should get this but P(x)=x³+3x+2 with roots alpha, beta, gamma find eqt. with roots alpha + 1/alpha etc. (a+1/a) x=a+1/a, a=(x+(x²-4)^½)/2 - right? =/ anyways, I tried subbing that in and expanding but it ain't working. should I just try and find...

No, it's good to be in a competative environment. If the teachers are marking very strictly then that's adventagous as you will strive for better HSC marks. As it's your relative rank, if the difference between first and last in only two marks then that doesn't matter at all. However, if...

The thing is, in my regular maths classes I find that I'm often helping others. It can get a bit repetative, but teaching others is the best way to consolidate your own knowledge, so I dunno. The thing is, the classes are mainly after school so once she's taught us the work, we just go home only...

Does anyone find that there's such a thing as a too small a class? I know small classes are good; my japanese one has 8 people which is nice, a lot of one on one time and people to ask. But my maths ext 2 class is me and this other girl, who looks like she's going to quit. I'm finding that I...

Focus subjects I'm doing 11 units, dropped phys and picked up ext2 maths. Also do chem, jap cont, eng adv and studies of religion one unit (compulsary at my school and definately not going to be counted.) I find jap really easy and can coast along with high 80s. Do you think it'd be better to...
