  2. Q

    Hypothetical: Should we switch English exams over to a digital format?

    Simple fix: Limit at 1000 words and students have a fixed time to compose such a response.

    Dilemma on Einstein's contribution to quantum theory

    Yeah i got the names jumbled sorry! Anyway, I don't think Einstein explained Planck's hypothesis? He only expanded on it which then explained photoelectric effect

    Dilemma on Einstein's contribution to quantum theory

    Hi have some gaps in my understanding: Dotpoint "Identify Einstein’s contribution to quantum theory and its relation to black body radiation" Einstein's contribution to quantum theory -> Proposed that light is quantised (is it wrong to say this since Planck proposed it? Should I instead say...

    Quality vs quantity

    Thanks. My essays were actually around 900 words but I put 800 for the sake of comparing quantity vs quality

    Quality vs quantity

    Yeah but that just screams out regurgitation. As I said, they didn't answer the question.

    Quality vs quantity

    Reflecting on my English trials, I omitted some paragraphs in my prepared essays because they didn't or couldn't answer the question, resulting in my essay being about 800 words (for both mod B and mod C). Should I have just included the omitted paragraphs do I don't get marked down for "shallow...

    Reference to critical interpretations

    I've been reading some exemplar responses and noticed that not many people include critical interpretations in their essay response. Why is this? Part of the rubric says to critically consider the perspectives of others and I thought it'd be smart to explore these perspectives in your essays...

  16. Q

    Regarding inertial frames

    Why is inside a space shuttle in orbit an inertial frame of reference (I'm assuming they are since occupants don't experience an acceleration)? Isn't it continuously accelerating (due to orbit)? I lack understanding in what defines an inertial frame

    Explaining Meissner Effect

    How do you explain the Meissner effect? I believe it is wrong to explain the Meissner effect as the induction of currents which perfectly oppose the relative motion of the magnet (Lenz's Law) thereby excluding any magnetic flux within the superconductor in superconducting state. This is wrong...
