its a formula u can derive using integration. i think u can also derive it using the suvat eqns asw but im unsure. that there is the formula for the maximum height approached by the proj motion.Ok now since Im done with projectile motion in mod 5 I havent come across this formula:

Is this from the old syllabus or something that pops in mod 5 later on? idk I searched the syllabus/ textbooks and couldnt find this so just making sure
thanks
is there a reason why not to memorise it? it doesnt seem that badits like a handy tool ig but you're better off not memorising it imo. maybe for practise you could derive it so you can see where it comes from
Im guessing you have done hsc physicsYou can't quote formulas not on the data sheet -> must prove them
yeah this is the reason. you can't use it straight up in the hsc. its only useful for multiple choice bc no working is needed (unlikely tho) and maybe its useful for quickly checking your answer for a longer question igYou can't quote formulas not on the data sheet -> must prove them
It's used for symmetrical projectiles only I'm pretty sure. Like people have said above, any equations in physics that are not on formula sheet you need to remember to derive or you lose marks. But just remember for multiple choice imo.Ok now since Im done with projectile motion in mod 5 I havent come across this formula:

oi you done w mod 5?It's used for symmetrical projectiles only I'm pretty sure. Like people have said above, any equations in physics that are not on formula sheet you need to remember to derive or you lose marks. But just remember for multiple choice imo.
you don't need this in physics hscOk now since Im done with projectile motion in mod 5 I havent come across this formula:

No. You don't even need to know this formula. If a question requires it they will give it anyway.Ok now since Im done with projectile motion in mod 5 I havent come across this formula:

how gay are you?The formula you're referencing (often represented as R=v2sin2θgR = \frac{v^2 \sin 2\theta}{g}R=gv2sin2θ for the range of a projectile) is indeed associated with projectile motion, but it may not be explicitly stated in the current HSC Physics syllabus or in the textbooks you’ve reviewed for Module 5.
Here's a bit of context:
Why You Might Not See It:
- Old Syllabus: This formula has been commonly used in earlier iterations of physics courses, including the old HSC syllabus. It gives the horizontal range of a projectile launched at an angle θ\thetaθ with an initial velocity vvv.
- Current Syllabus: While the concepts of projectile motion are covered in Module 5, the specific formulas and their applications might not be emphasized in the same way. Instead, you're expected to derive such formulas based on the principles of kinematics and dynamics.
What to Do:
- The current focus may be more on understanding the underlying principles rather than memorizing specific formulas.
- Your syllabus might prioritize concepts over specific mathematical expressions.
- If you're comfortable with the derivation of projectile motion and understand how to calculate range, height, and time of flight, you're likely on the right track!
- If you think you might encounter this formula in later topics or assessments, it could still be helpful to familiarize yourself with it and its derivation.
