yeh the acceleration below 8g is the hardest one, i dun think anyone got that right in my school, i'll post the qs up sometime for u guys to have fun with it :)

basically u're given a mass which is orbiting earth at a certain height, then it asks what's the shortest time for it to reach earth with a velocity 0 and it's acceleration less than 8g.

I thought it was fairly easy too. Maybe something went horribly wrong though..

Sounds pretty easy to me, but I didn't do that test.

Yeah the CSSA was nice and easy (although only got 73% ><), for us the hardest questions were revolved around Medical Physics (oddities that people neglected to study eg: spatial resolution) .. btw, we got a modified vesion of medical.

something like compare and contrast Planks and Einsteins contribution to quantum theory.

I'm pretty sure everybody got Plancks Contribution but no one remembered Einsteins.

no idea why either, its just so easy...after going back over it... 7 mark question.
