    Death Metal!!!

    Ressurection Through Carnage might be worth checking out; it has 'Like Fire' which I remember I was pretty into a couple years back. Maybe the Breeding Death EP aswell. In general though, I probably wouldn't pay much attention to them. There's a lot of much better DM out there.

    Do you like maths?

    I don't know that I would say maths is good because it's objective, one correct answer etc. It should be more about problem solving, creativity - new ways of visualising and thinking about things..

    Another Gravity Question

    the distance between the centres (R) is 12756 + the radius of the 2 bodies the gravitational force is Gm1m2/R

    Applications of calculus to the physical World Q

    d/dx 12t-t^3 = 12 - 3t2 = 0 when t=+-2, so is moving away from the origin for 2 seconds (at t=0, x=0) when x=0, t=0, +-rt12 so when it returns it has a velocity of 12 - 3*12 = -24

    Sums to products, products to sums

    is this the trig ones? you probably wouldn't need to memorise them, since you should be able figure them out in like 10 seconds (well, won't take long at least), but I suppose it wouldn't hurt to learn them off by heart

    Projectile Motion Question

    sorry, I did that wrong (we're solving for y, not x..) x = ucos45*t sub in values to get t y = usin45 t - 1/2 gt2 sub in values to get y that's what I had at first but changed it around for some reasons

    Extension One Revising Game

    some calculus questions 1. a) differentiate xx b) 'Air is being pumped into a spherical balloon at a rate of 500cm3/s. Find the rate of increase of surface area S when the radius is 20cm' [S = 4pi r2, V = 4/3 pi r3] c) show by differentiating from first principals that the derivative of ln[x]...

    Projectile Motion Question

    y = usin45 t - 1/2 gt2 sub in values and solve the quadratic to get t x = ucos45*t sub in values to get x

    random simple question

    well if the auxilary method is what I think it is, then that's a pretty simple way to work it out if you only need the amplitude, and the motion is in the form asin[x] + bcos[x] then it's just sqrt(a2 + b2) which is what you would have done to find R

    Complex Number Question.. Please help.

    using pascal's triangle (each number in a new row is the result of adding the 2 above it) to quickly get the different combinations can be quite helpful 1 1 1 1 2 1 1 3 3 1 1 4 6 4 1 1 5 10 10 5 1 1 6 15 20 15 6 1 etc. (arrange as an isoseles triangle) This gives the coefficient for the...

    Evaluate this integral

    divide it out by cos2x so you get sec2/(1+2tan2) = atan(rt2 tanx)/rt2 (I looked at the answer on the integrator. you should probably do that when you want to find an easier way to do something)
