would we be expected to do calculatons on banked curves involving friction? (1 Viewer)

this diagram doesn't show friction. Short answer, no
Long answer: of course not, there's barely any math in hsc physics its actually embarrasing. They never will add friction to banked curves cause that adds too much complexity which the syllabus assumes we're too dumb to handle + I'm pretty sure friction is module 2 content anyway. Maybe a selective school trial paper would ask it but never in the hsc.

ooo okay so it wouldn’t be tested in a banked curved question orrrr

yeah, if a physics question looks too complicated mathematically, it likely wont ever be tested in the hsc.

The most that we will have to calculate in terms of friction is F=coefficient of friction * Normal force

Curiously, you could get such a question in the Technology - Engineering course, but you wouldn't get such a question in the Physics course. Engineering places more weight on friction (if you pardon the pun).

yeah but engineering studies, a syllabus from 2011 by humanities phile labor government, definitely wont have this
