Hey i finsihed my HSC this year, and i think i think i got roughly a low 90's raw mark for the engineering studies paper (i was ranked first in my claas). Do you think i have a shot at a state ranking ? And would say a 90 in engineering scale downwards? My teacher seemed a bit fuzzy about the...

Re: Unlubricated anal sex :'( lol i dont know much about UWS, but i heard it actually stands for U Went Shit

Go to oatley man, because if you like science you will most definately like engineering studies (especially in year 12 - year 11 course is semi retarded). And since you are doing physics and chem in will benefit you so much for engineering. But its too bad you cant do engineering studies at...

I pretty much got the same as you, except: For you 6 i got C, but im pretty sure you are right. Question 9 is D, sorry man. And question 8 i got B as well, but it was pretty much a guess. How did everyone find the drawing questions ? And who could do that plane question where it gave you to...

I got RB = 130Kn and RA = 100Kn Then i cut through AB and the members above and below it. Then i took moments about the top right hand corner (this eliminates the two forces from the sectioned members). Then using trig i found the perpendicular distance from my point to AB. I got that...

lol a 1.5 kg car. Anyways... the part about it taking 10 seconds to acelerate to that speed is irellevant. Power = Work / Time Work = change in PE + change in KE since there is no change in PE Work = 1/2 x 1.5 x 27.7squared (to convert km/hr to m/s multiply by 0.277) so now Power =...

No engineering studies is capped. That means that the highest scaled aggregate you can get is 96.4 or something. But that doesnt mean it scales badly. Everything goes down on SAM, so i dont get what you mean anyway? Trust me Engineering scales better than business studies.

stress = force / area say the normal test piece has a raidus of 1 (it doesnt matter what you give it) its area will be, pi x 1 sqaured which equals pi if the area is 1/4, then the new radius would be 0.25 so area would equal, pi x 0.25 sqaured and 0.25 squared equals 1/16 so area...

Outline the basic operations of a turboprop and turbojet engine. Btw Bdogz, what school do you go to. Your like the only person who regularly posts things about this subject.

Engineering is usually slightly above average, so yes it does scale up, but not by much.

I didnt understand the second part of this question. It said what would be the time taken in YOUR FRAME OF REFERENCE. Time can never slow down in ones frame of reference. So doesnt it mean it would take you 170000 light years / 0.99999c ??? If the question had said "how much time will...

You had to say copper should be used for the guttering. Because the steel screws will transfer electrons to the copper, so the copper would corrode slowly (screws act as sacrificial anodes). If aluminium was used then the guttering would transfer electrons to the screws, making it corrode...

Platinum is more expensive than silver you egg. . .

gurmies add me as a friend, i dont know how too

hey i got 1.45% too. But i thought i didnt round of, i usually save my answers in my calculator. Hopefully we only lose 1 mark.

I said 0.77V + 0.13V which should equal 0.90V (which i think is the right answer) but i was rushing and accidently said it equals 1.00V will i still get the mark?

I did 0.77V + 0.13V which should equal 0.9V (which i think is the correct answer) but i was rushing and accidently said it equals 1.00V do you think i will still get the mark?

I really hope you are right, but 95/120 for 2unit, cmon dude thats ridiculous. Anyways how did you find out what the raw cut off was ? Most of the markers dont know that - our teachers do their best to estimate it.

Overall the paper was a little tough - perhaps the hardest there has been in a few years. But the questions were not impossible. What pissed me of was that there was no easy questions you could easily bag some marks - like a whole question devoted to corordinate geometry, or some easy barings...

Ok cool, it looks like unsw has the better campus (for most of you). I just havn't seen enough of usyd, but i dont really feel for the Hogwarts look so i think i would like unsw better.
