That thing about calculating the altitude of a geostationary satellite I didn't really have a clue how to use Kepler's stupid equation so I memorised it and re-wrote it in my half-yearly =D

c it was nevertheless memorising!

memorisation is a big part of the hsc when you want to learn the minimum amount as possible

well u sure can't do that- if ur doing mathematics- and the "real" physics.

well it's not like im trying to prove my intelligence. i just want the marks no matter what method i use, even if it's lame

Yeah, i guess u had to memorise some stuff, but like for relativity for eg, it's much easier to understand the concept and be able to apply it, than just memorise the definition of it which makes it hard to apply.

On the contrary i found Motors and Generators easy...but i didn't like relativity at the beginning. I found it too abstract :|

i agree
but there isn't too many hard parts in physics hsc,....provided u read the book thoroughly..really!physics is not hard

 

[...]

physics@ HSC level is not hard at all

though i didn't do as well as i planned to...


the thing is...the maths tehy give u doens't requires u to sit there for half and hr to derive something..but rather use a simple formula and sub in numbers in there...

relativity is shit and makes me fall to sleep in class and is just silly

no lets get this straight: physics is hard, but hsc physics is not!

bloody easy course lol nothing hard

na the hardest bit was the quantum theory in the photoelectric effect; now that was fun but hard

umm... semiconductors and the movement of holes and electrons in transistors and pn sandwiches i never figured out

yeah, its not hard since if u don't get the concept- u just need to memorise the dot point, thats all!

wauh... i hated the part about time dilation..... everthing else isnt so hard to understand...! lol

The worst i thought was the memorising bit in Motors and Generators!! It was a pain!!
