    Physics Predictions/Thoughts

    I would start of by deriving the energies; kinetic and total to be exact (which aren’t too difficult). Then you can derive Kepler’s third law by analysing \dfrac{2\pi r}{T} and equating it with orbital velocity (might’ve to derive that as well)

    Physics Exam 2019 Questions Thread

    Hey guys, in preparation for the physics exam, I thought I’d start a question thread where we ask each other questions and take turns answering them as revision, since we also don’t have many materials for revision. I’ll start off with the question: Explain how the cosmic microwave background...

    Well reagents mean reactants, the by products are useless so they aren’t really used in the next step as reactants

    That wasn’t me, I almost forgot. But yeah, I’d assume you’d have to mention by products since it asks to describe the process

    Reagents and reactants are mostly used interchangeably, however, reactants more specifically are used up in the reaction

    either oxidation with potassium dichromate, aldehyde shiuld change colour from orange to green when oxidised to an acid. After to confirm solid na2co3 can be dissolved producing bubble and u know the rest

    I’m sure it’ll be fine, max we could lose is 1 mark anyway. also if our other info is coherent enough it should be fine and we might mot lose a mark

    Don’t think nesa will be that picky. Also they only judge sig figs for certain questions, usually 1 or 2 in the whole exam mention penalty for incorrect sig figs
