    Syllabus question

    gather secondary information to predict the value of acceleration due to gravity on other planets For this dot point do we need to memorise all the values of acceleration for various planets, or simply just know the formula, g=GM/r^2 Also my school's textbook, jacaranda has all this...

    Question regarding rockets.

    If a rocket had a mass of 32000kg, of which 85% is fuel, and a thrust of 400000N determine: a) the rate of acceleration and g force at lift-off b) the rate of acceleration and g-force just prior to exhastion of the fuel, Assume it is travelling horizontally and acceleration up to orbital...

    Two Locus Questions

    1) A point P(x,y) moves so that the sume of the squares of its distance from the points A,B and C is 77. Show that the locus is a circle and find its centre and radius. 2)Find the locus of the point p(x,y) which moves so that its distance from the point A(4,0) is always twice its distance from...
