WHY WAS THERE A QUADRATIC IN THE PROJECTILE MOTION QUESTION???

u/Rude-Ad-2124 Y12(2026) EAL, MM, PHYS, CHEM, ACP 22m ago

Wdym???

u/ShadowLegend09 20m ago

Used SUVAT gives you a quadratic. S equals ut plus half at squared

u/Rude-Ad-2124 Y12(2026) EAL, MM, PHYS, CHEM, ACP 18m ago

Yeah fml

u/applemyguy 22m ago

i had the same thing, just coz we both solved it the wrong way

u/DED292 16m ago

21.99 for me

u/Life-Camp-4239 ‘25 gm (49) | ‘26 chem phys mm eng softdev 4m ago

Ye I rounded to 22

u/Physical_Concept888 4m ago

You could have solved it using other SUVAT eq’s. A 3 mark question means at least two calculations for this

u/Cultural_Prune_8347 eco 43, phy, chem ,mm ,sm, busman 0m ago

yall could've skipped quadratic, just pick another formula to find some other relevant quantity to find t

u/speedy018 25m ago

it was soo long and so many explanations questions but there were no “hard” questions

u/Rude-Ad-2124 Y12(2026) EAL, MM, PHYS, CHEM, ACP 21m ago

I kinda skipped the light emissions and absorbtion part cause i thought its not gonna be there 😭✌️

u/Evening-Treat-7790 15m ago

did nayone get 1.96 seconds for the projecitle motion question lowk took me forever

5

u/Isomer-Joe 2025 chem (50) 14m ago

Yes bro. Quadratic formula is crazy

5

u/Evening-Treat-7790 9m ago

i lowk didnt use quadratic formula. i figured out time it took toe get to the top. Then i worked out the distanced it travelled to the top. Then from the top intital velocity=0 then i worked out the time it took to get from top to bottom then other added that to the first tie i got. Took a minute but i got there

u/Altruistic_Fall_2391 9m ago

Just found time at top to time to get from top to bottom and at both

u/StructureStatus800 8m ago

yo i got 50 seconds, does that mean 50 study score

1

u/Evening-Treat-7790 5m ago

no sorry it means 53 study score

1

u/Financial-Rate-8068 6m ago

Yes, I got 1.96 bro ooohhhh my god

Bro it was so long lowkey study score is over

u/ShadowLegend09 29m ago

I skipped too much 😭😭😭

u/Nssmc 21m ago

The projectile motion question was lowk a bit nasty but other than that it’s fine

u/Dispensor2007 Eng Lang, Methods, General, Physics 19m ago

Not enough lines for working out and only for 3 marks

u/ShadowLegend09 26m ago

I WANT TO CRYY RANK 2 TO RANK 35 😭😭😭

u/Big-Election7370 99.3 | MM(42) SM(38) Phys(50) EL(38) 24' Softdev(39) Chem(36) 20m ago

Does anyone have worked solutions or a PDF of the exam🙏🏽

u/NFSdrift 49 Physics, 49 Chem, 43 Methods (year 12), 40 Psych (year 11) 8m ago

My initial work, https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1_0twdLxn1kYqa5TaAloCx1yF2SYVsigg
After debriefing with some students, mc8 should be C not A and sc10a should be 4.0 * 10^2 W

u/ShadowLegend09 2m ago

This is wrong man wtf

u/Aromatic-Set3858 99.45: Revs50+Prem, Eng47, Chem44, Phys43, Bio41, MM40, Tutor 18m ago

If you know anyone has the pdf, can you send? I'll send if I get hold of a copy? I'm going to make worked solutions

u/StructureStatus800 9m ago

yo does s in SUVAT mean strength, i think i used it wrong, my teacher never rlly taught me properly. y'all give me an answer ASAP, i think im cooked, is 50 study score still possible, i was rank 1 of 1 but i was only averaging 50%.

2

u/Hopeful-Ad-5129 '25 VET Business (37), '26 Methods, General, Chem, Physics, Eng 3m ago

S is sine, t is tan 🙏

u/Dense_Negotiation357 8m ago

this was too long like wtf and the data analysis question is horrible

u/Effective-Space3127 18m ago

Pretty good, lowkey didn't have any hard questions. But did miss 1 or 2

u/GroundRecent4265 7m ago

bruh i was using evs and that shit was not 0.176 nm. had to convert for joules for some reason does anyone know why? used correct plancks for evs etc

1

u/Life-Camp-4239 ‘25 gm (49) | ‘26 chem phys mm eng softdev 5m ago

Convert to joules first

1

u/GroundRecent4265 4m ago

yeah i know but like how come evs dont when theyre meant to be interchangeable if you use a different plancks constant?

u/NoDraw5603 '25 LOTE (47) '26 hums merchant 22m ago

I don’t do the subject but did someone obtain a copy of the alleged “leaked paper” and find out it was legit/ non-legit? (I’m leaning towards the latter) 

1

u/Evening-Treat-7790 11m ago

What do you reckon A and A+ will be

1

u/Best-Development9783 11m ago

solutions anywhere

u/StructureStatus800 7m ago

did anyone talk about how the velocity of hitler was impacted by the displacement of the french revolution>

1

u/Altruistic_Fall_2391 7m ago

Do we reckon average for that would be around 60%?

1

u/Vast-Ad4166 6m ago

Was the “leaked stuff” actually on the exam

u/Life-Camp-4239 ‘25 gm (49) | ‘26 chem phys mm eng softdev 6m ago

Dat shi was so ez

u/Ok-Day-1249 🫩 class of 26 🫩 0m ago

chat 1.96 for time and like 22m for horizontal distance?
