    why the mass of the planet plays no role in determining a satellite's orbital speed

    Re: why the mass of the planet plays no role in determining a satellite's orbital spe Yeah I had a feeling equating them would make no sense Thanks for reminding me :) (I haven't done calculation questions involving this in a while)

    why the mass of the planet plays no role in determining a satellite's orbital speed

    Re: why the mass of the planet plays no role in determining a satellite's orbital spe Orbital Velocity = GM / r (square root over the whole thing) Its derivation comes from equating the centripetal force formula and the gravitational force equation that includes the mass of the planet and the...

    Humour in answers?

    I remember receiving my chem trials and looking through one of my responses about diminishing natural resources I mentioned guano and I subconsciously put "bat shit" in brackets (I honestly don't remember even thinking about it that way and if I did I wouldv'e written bat faeces) - The marker...

    Was there a syllabus change?

    :blink2: I had no idea they allocated it in the marking criteria :O (I have the success one book that goes back to the 1980's papers so I haven't checked BOSTES's solutions)

    HSC Physics Marathon 2013-2015 Archive

    re: HSC Physics Marathon Archive It's also good to mention the exclusion of the magnetic field from the superconductor @indolence I've heard explanations of the Meissner effect with Lenz's Law but for HSC physics I don't think they want you to relate the two For your question I would've...

    Was there a syllabus change?

    Yeah the papers are apparently getting easier not just in terms of difficulty but the wording of the question; you'll notice with the earlier papers that the wording of the papers were very ambiguous and it's difficult to pick out what they're looking for - they'd also allocate marks for the...

    Will you stay on BoS after your HSC?

    Mhhm I'm not sure how I'll give back to the community :/ I'll probably upload some notes and buy some raw marks so you can add them to your database :)

    How to do this mc question?

    It's in the form v^2 = n^2 (a^2 - x^2) So Amplitude = 3 Period = 2 pi / 4 = pi / 2

    Business Studies Formulas?

    You should also know the formula for gross profit and net profit (They may give you the ratio formulas but not the formulas for these individually) Gross Profit = Sales - COGS COGS = (Opening Stock + Purchases) - Closing Stock Net Profit = Gross Profit - Expenses Working Capital =...

    HSC Physics Marathon 2013-2015 Archive

    re: HSC Physics Marathon Archive I don't do this option but is it something to do with the dry ice melting to the carbon dioxide gas form and radiation ionising these particles and then there's something about droplets forming a path (beta has a zig zag one iirc) --> tbh I have no idea LOL I...

    Thoughts on HSC chemistry 2015

    BOSTES will take some time and there aren't many BoSer's keen on writing out solutions to a subject like this They usually do it for maths only

    General thoughts: HSC chemistry 2015

    This is reassuring I went along with the same thought process + Check your email :P
