Maths Honours
·E/craft P2 q8 Integration by parts, max/min problems, mclaurin series
·Paper 1 Maths the integration question has one of the special case questions the one not in the log tables
·proof of the volume of a sphere using interg methods
·paper1 had diff 1/x from first principals, parametric eqns, volume of a sphere using integration methods, binomial expansion of (1+2x)^n ,and q2 (c) was find quadratic eqn. with roots.. in terms of p and q.
Paper: 1
Hints: Diff. by first prin...asymptotes......turning points & points of inflection.......area enclosed between curve and x axis
·Paper 1: Alpha/Beta roots question, simplifiying to a constant, polynomial thing(long division yolk), Newton-Raphson, parametric equations, Root x from first principles, local maximum/inflection, De Moivres theorom
Paper 2: 3-D trigonometry question(easy), function into product, difference equation(bit different, still aced it), ways a word can be formed when 4 consenants & 3 vowels are in it(all consonants together), standard deviation, mean, proof of Sin2A, equation of a circle.
Chemistry
·Benzoic acid
·EXAMCRAFT- KMnO4 and FAS, rates of reactions and ethanoic acid experiments
·DEB- Water of Crystalisation Titration - A bit tricky
Soap Experiment - couldn't believe it came up after coming up in 2006
Heat of Neutralisation Experiment
Short questions were easy
Le Chatelier's Principle was tricky
CH16 what is a catalyst, basic questions on a catalytic convertor in a car, what is rate of reaction, describe 2 experiments to show how particle size and conc. change the rate of a reaction.
Crappy question on Physical Chemistry - Basic Periodic Table - Doberiner and Mendeleev. Rest of the question is on electronegativity and trends and bonding as a result of...
Easy pH question, part b was water - basic junior cert knowledge will do ya
CH22/23 know the addition of HCl to what i think was propene
Q10 was on the mole, what is a mole, 19mk calculation on limiting reactants
Gases also in there, ideal gases all about that and a calculation
Q11 is on oxidation and radioactivity and the option
Physics
·Boyles Law
·resistance of a thermistor
·DEB paper:
question 1 was on conservation of mom, 2 was on real depth & apparent depth, 3 was fusion of ice, 4 was variation of resistance with temperature.6 was archimedes principle and law of flotation and upthrust and stuff like that, 7 was on sound and waves, fundamental frequency and harmonics, 8 was on capacitance and circuits and stuff, 9 was photoelectric effect and x-rays and photocathodes, 10 was the option, 11 was magnets and 12a was newtons gravitation and circular motion, b was light, c was semiconductors and d was radioactivity
·Q1. Experiment to verify that acceleration is proportional to force
Q2. Experiment to investigate the variation of the fundamental frequency of a string with tension
Q3.Specific latent heat of fusion of ice
Q4.The resistance of a metallic conductor
·[FONT="]EXAMCRAFT[/FONT]
[FONT="]Q6vector,scaler def and vector exp.vertical and horizontal components sum
Q7Sound frequency,know eq def for this section,diffraction grating
Q8.Capacitance,parallel plates exp
Q9 Voltage,current power,
Q10(a) -usual partical physics stuff, know your definitions for leptons,meson etc and a property of each.know partical and anti particle process
Q11-Radioactivity,know the exp and chain reaction
Q12-(b) radioactive decay and eq
(c) electromagnetism,Lenz and Faradays Law
(d) role of electrons in x-rays,photons[/FONT]
·Boyles, Focal Length of concave Mirror, Resistance of thermistor with temperature, Specific Latent heat of Fusion. There was also a question about Elementary Particles (Quarks, Anti-Quarks etc...) and a question about semi conductors, (n-type. p-type). Also know about thermometric properties, kelvins to degrees.
·derive S=ut+1/2at^2
·One with the meter stick - moments thing
One with resistance temperature on a metal
One with the frequency of a stretched string
One on the fusion of ice or sumthing.. i forget
·The refractive index of solid/liquid came up in the pick 2 parts section along with the conservation of momentum
Then there was a q on Newtons law of Gravitation with an experiment needed.
They were the only 2 i really could even manage to attempt tbh
A cathode and anode yolk came up aswell (something about doping or something)
·Nothing came up on circular motion.
Boyles Law,
Concave Mirrors
Specific latent heat of ice
Resistance or something (skipped it)
Question 5: Gravitation Law
Calculate refractive Index
Can't honestly remember much else
Why are no 2 themometers the same -- that came up too.
Q6: Velocity/acceleration with a diagram and answer questions from it.
Q7: Definitions: Interference, and a few questions on waves and that
Q8: Semiconductors - question on n-type/p type
Q9 - something else along electricity lines
Q11 - X rays
Q12 - cant remember part a but part b was about heat and temperatures and that.0

Was the physics paper not Sooooooooo difficult or am i actually as bad at this subject as my grade reflected?0

unfortunately it's against the rules0
