not really too much, your internal mark will just be a bit behind the highest, so a bit below 80 (assuming there is a much greater spread for other rankings)

what if there are only 2 people in a physics class (this is just a thought experiment)
person A is ranked first
person B is ranked second

in the hsc exams, person A absolutely bombs the exam and gets like 20%
person B gets 80%

won't person B's hsc mark be made up of his exam mark (80%) and the exam mark of 2nd place (20%)? that doesnt seem fair

unless person A was considered such an outlier that it was ignored (which is fairly possible), then yes both people would get 50% overall

rank 1 gets the highest exam mark as their internal, and rank last gets the lowest exam mark as their internal (WHERE POSSIBLE)

in this case, carrots is right and person A would be considered an outlier. person B would definitely not get 20 as their internal, unless their raw percentage gap was massive for their assessments

wtf the carrots and chilli pfp look the same its hurting my eyes

@carrotsss what would happen if the person ranked second got like 94 and the person who was first got 80, but there was only like a 2 mark gap between internal marks, and assuming the rest of the class performs similarly in the exam as their internals, do you know what would happen to the moderated assessment mark of the person ranked second? would it be 80?

if there was only a 2 mark gap, rank 2nd would definitely not get a moderated assessment mark of 80, considering rank 1st would get a moderated assessment mark of 94.
the exact number would depend slightly on how everyone else performs, but it would be around 90-92 moderated assessment mark for rank 2nd, as they take into account the raw percentage gap between ranks.

Who needs to touch grass more? The nerds on a nerd forum? Or the nerd in denial telling nerds on a nerd forum that they need to touch grass.

For question 34b, why do they give us the potential energy? I just subtracted total by potential. How much marks do you think they will give me?

Retarded trick question

I did the same, I’m sayin 2

Hey guys. Does anyone have the solution to the last question of 2023 HSC physics? Thanks

 

[justletmespeak123]

matrix solutions: https://www.matrix.edu.au/2023-hsc-physics-exam-paper-solutions/

matrix solution wrong for Q28 (they forgot to add the vertical displacement found in part b

[justletmespeak123]

lol im looking at the wrong thread mb.. but the 2024 solution for q28 on matrix website is wrong

@carrotsss there’s your hard math questions u wanted

Brother, it's called a physics exam. These questions aren't math questions, they are physics questions. This is the same as calling an economics exam an English test. This is barely scraping the surface of physics when compared university let alone VCE.

Side note, barely scraping 80 is kinda crazy, especially with the good alignment of physics and the fact that humanities and qualitative questions were still the vast majority in the 2023 paper
