    HSC crime Question

    You don't have to, but things like, reports from the Bureau of Crime Statistics and Research is something that could be considered to include - which are received positively by markers.

    I find World Order probably the easiest haha (Although you kinda have to have an interest in it already). PM me and I'll send through some things that may help you.

    I have prepared a few essays for each option - but there is no way I'm memorising them. Much to risky. Know the content but write a few practice essays and prepare essay plans.

    Physics marathon (hsc)

    I think your working is fine, but note that the geostationary orbit of 5 x 10^4 > orbital radius of 6000. So the only thing i'm wondering is that maybe your answer should be a negative value? Perhaps it might not make a difference.

    Irreducibility of a Fraction

    Don't think we need induction here. We observe that 3(14n + 3) = 2(21n + 4) + 1 Since a multiple of 14n + 3 differs from a multiple of 21n + 4 by 1, we cannot have any positive integer greater than 1 simultaneously divide 14n + 3 and 21n + 4 . Hence the greatest common divisor of the...

    Physics marathon (hsc)

    Use Kepler's Law of Periods for both planets and equate the \frac{radius^3}{orbital period^2} of the two planets. As \frac{GM}{4\pi^2} is a constant, we can disregard this in this question. \frac{r_{Alif}^3}{T_{Alif}^2} = \frac{r_{Ba}^3}{T_{Ba}^2} = \frac{(4.00 \times 10^{11})^3}{(8.75...

    Anyone have any exemplar hsc extended responses ?

    These are the two supplied by the board from 2001 and 2002 HSCs. The options haven't changed and if it got a band 6 back then, it'll get one today. http://arc.boardofstudies.nsw.edu.au/standards-packs/SP01_15220/ - 2001 http://arc.boardofstudies.nsw.edu.au/standards-packs/SP02_15220/ - 2002...

    Anyone up for a Astrophysics Marathon?

    I'd go about answering this question like this: Cepheids are intrinsic periodic variables. The period-luminosity relationship of a Cepheid Variable star allows the distance to a Cepheid to be calculated. By observing the star through spectral analysis over time, the type of Cepheid can be...

    Section 4 Part II - Essay or business report?

    It can be in report format with absolutely no penalty. Confirmed by my teacher who is a HSC marker of 12 years.

    Help In Understanding.

    Personally I think the recent papers haven't been nearly as hard as the mid-late 90's. Apart from 2008.

    Help In Understanding.

    i) Find first derivative and stationary points - it'll fall out to the result needed. ii) Since stationary points are at x = +- √3/3, and A > 0 .'. f(√3/3) > 0. Sub in x = √3/3 into the equation for f(x), manipulate --> state that it must be greater than 0 since f(√3/3) is greater than 0. It...

    Do the last 3 years papers, they tend to ask the whole syllabus in a 3 year cycle. Whatever they haven't tested in the last 3 years - high chance they will this year. Good luck!

    Learn a topic, do a few past HSC questions on them that vary in difficulty and then hit trial papers (Sydney Boys & Grammer write nice papers - Ruse papers are quite easy) . When your HSC comes round - do HSC papers. Not as much in 3U as compared to 4 Unit, but hardly any schools write...

    Raw Mark Required for Maths Extension?

    In the old format 70%(57-58/84) aligned to an E4. So I'd be saying around 49-50/70 in new format.

    I found it a bit harder than most past years - but still shouldn't have made the errors i did.
