you can do whatever you want. I recommend getting it out of the way, and redoing Physics 1A in semester 2. (1A is offered in s1 and s2) if you need to do Physics 1B as well, then do that in summer session. (1B is offered in s2 and summer) some people leave it till 2nd year to catch up, but...

edit: whoops wrong thread sorry

okay so the question gives us %5Cfrac%7B%5Ctextup%7Bd%7DA%7D%7B%5Ctextup%7Bd%7Dt%7D=3 from the first part, we have A=18%5Csin%5Ctheta differentiating: %5Cfrac%7B%5Ctextup%7Bd%7DA%7D%7B%5Ctextup%7Bd%7D%5Ctheta%7D=18%5Ccos%5Ctheta and so just rearranging...

i spose you could memorise the result, but i'll try to explain it: well basically the derivative = gradient = rise/run to work out the rise between a and a+h, you use f(a+h)-f(a). to work out the rise between (a-h) and (a), the definition of rise is f(a)-f(a-h) but in our equation...

agree with most of that, here's my 2c (i've tutored a few SDD students as well) the Excel SDD Book is awesome, and contains everything you need to know. Davis's textbook is okay, but he waffles on a bit too much and i like avoiding excessive reading :) for most schools, the major project is...

think about what you enjoyed in years 9-10 science. if you enjoyed mechanics (velocity, acceleration, inertia, etc), electricity, light (refraction,diffraction,etc) and space then you will enjoy physics i wouldn't recommend doing physics if you are only going to take general maths -- it's...

there are quite a few books out there, but most use the same HSC exams, so once you buy one you've bought them all. i recommend the MANSW one, it has good clear solutions (sometimes with multiple methods) my personal opinion is that if you need to do more than 4 or 5 past papers, then you...

hi there you will still be able to do IT with general maths, because IT is mainly about the business/systems side of computing however if you want to do a course with hardcore programming such as Software Engineering or Computer Science, you have to do 2unit. this is because most unis will...

it means that they assume you have done it, but they don't check when you enrol. however, I do NOT recommend dropping down to general maths unless you are absolutely failing in 2unit. I am tutoring a guy in first year at the moment who totally regrets being lazy and dropping to general; he has...

haha really? pahor's the best... they touch on the notion of multivariable calculus in math1131 (like you need to know partial derivatives), but it's covered in more detail in 2nd year when you get to a course on vector calculus or one of the engineering maths subjects like Maths 2A or Maths...

i think first year maths requires a minimum mark of 40% in both sections (algebra and calculus) in the final exam, as well as your overall mark being over 50%. this is to stop people just smashing one half of the course while ignoring the other (because let's face it, algebra is easier and more...

Hi there hopefully this makes sense, i didn't bother working out the answer, but here's the method...

sorry i haven't done maths for a while (so it might be wrong), but here goes.... also, im assuming p is just a real constant...

yes it depends on the subject. also, even if they mark the roll, it doesn't actually mean you have to attend. (it only becomes important if you are trying to scrape a conceded pass or something)

hi there! unless you want to take a combined degree (waste of time and money imo), then i wouldn't bother. the maths/physics of electrical engineering is stimulating enough, trust me :) and i think uni chemistry is a bit harder than school chemistry.

i think you will find it difficult because you will not have done any calculus or difficult trigonometry. however if you work really hard, i'm sure you could pull it off. instead of taking the first engineering maths course, perhaps think about taking an easier one first to catch up on the...

Eng1000 gets good once you get started on your project

hello all there is a common misconception that you get the 20% off the full semester amount even if you only pay $500 example: the amount of my hecs contribution for each semester is $3600 if i only pay $500, what they do is add 20% to the $500 ($100) and then take it off the balance of...

one lecturer i had last semester ostentatiously declared at the beginning that he would refer to our classes not as lectures, but workshops.... haha i don't think he managed to keep it up for the whole session though

no don't worry, because if you get a job, they're not going to give you a shift for ALL of your availability
