    MX2 Integration Marathon

    Re: HSC 2018 MX2 Integration Marathon \int_{-\frac{\pi}{2}}^{\frac{\pi}{2}}\frac{\cos x}{e^{\sinh x}+1} $ d$x \qquad $where $ \sinh x = \frac{1}{2}\left ( e^x-e^{-x} \right )

    Locus Question

    If the gradient of PA is equal to the gradient of PB, then P must lie on the line through A AND B. Otherwise the gradients of PA and PB will be different (you can draw up a diagram to visualise this). So in essense, the locus of P is equation of the line through A and B (as P can lie anywhere on...

    Help on Parametrics!

    Find the derivative of the parabola at each poiints and then use the point-gradient formula to find the eqn of tangents y = 5/2 x^2 dy/dx = 5x at x = 2, dy/dx = 10 therefore, the eqn of tangent at (2,10) is y - 10 = 10(x-2) [rearrange into the general form] at x = -4/5, dy/dx = -4...

    MX2 Integration Marathon

    Re: HSC 2018 MX2 Integration Marathon an easier way is to just use the substitution u = sqrt(x) the integrand will be 2/sqrt(u^2+1), which is trivial to integrate (those usual log ones)

    1st in Internals/1st in Externals

    Yes, basically if you come first internally, then the assessment mark will be equal to the highest external in that subject from your school (which will be your exam mark if you get the highest external). So yes, if you come first internally, then your classmates wont affect your results at all...

    MX2 Marathon

    Re: HSC 2018 MX2 Marathon Yes it should be (1 + \sqrt3 i)^{2n} + (1 - \sqrt3 i)^{2n} = 2^{2n + 1}

    Challenging gravitation question

    Use the law of conservation of energy PE (initial) + KE (initial) = PE (final) + KE (final) -62.3 * 10^6 m + 1/2 mv^2 = -1.3 * 10^6 m + 0 (assuming the craft stops when it reaches point P then accelerates due to the moons gravity) solving for v, we get 11 kms^-1

    How to remember formulae

    ye basically do tons of practice questions where you apply the formula, and you'll automatically remember the formula and will get the hang of applying it without referring to any formula sheet or whatever Like the above post, understanding what's behind the formula also helps massively

    MX2 Marathon

    Re: HSC 2018 MX2 Marathon Are you sure you wrote the question right? Cause a and b are real numbers (-1+-√2) not complex numbers in the form a+ib (b=/=0) (assuming that's what you intended it to be)
