They're gonna bring in some crazy calculation question. Their gonna involve circular motion of a planet that is has its ring at a 53 degree angle and and a projectile is shot off the planet and it hits the ring and deflects off and then another projectile is shot at the same angle and velocity and but it takes more time to reach the planet's ground. And the question will then be that explain why this shows a cosmic redshift or something (In short their gonna make a question that mixes like 3 modules). Some calc's 100% gonna be cooked. For the long responses its just mod 7 and 8 waffle and maybe some mod 6 lenz/faraday questions and maybe mod 5 LEO vs GEO question or something like that. ATP I have no idea what im even saying.
they can do long responses for an experiment like circular motion

Do you guys have any tips for the 7-9 mark essays?
Don't answer them straight away. After you complete easy MCQ, plan off to the side, write anything and everything about that topic (within reason ofc, make sure you can use it within your answer) sometimes if you miss out on something in your answer but have it dot pointed in your plan you'll gain some marks for it and some marks better than no marks, just like how slow motion better than no motion. Then after that go back and finish the easy short answer, do some more planning, and then finally write your answer and then finally do your hard MCQ.

when they don't specify the amount of sig figs you have to round to, are they strict on enforcing us on rounding to "the amount of significant figures that the measurement with the least number of significant figures used in the calculation." ?

sig figs are more or less irrelevant in physics and matter a lot more in chem its just good practice and is never really marked for

The physics equipment list from nesa does not have that we need a ruler so do you think that means we wont get a graph because if they don't tell us to bring it they cant test us on it right.
(praying for it for 5 free marks tho)
