    Need Help With Projectiles off a cliff :/

    to calculate time of flight use deta y = u(y)t +0.5a(y)t^2 take the cliff as the origin (i.e. delta y = 0), so if the height of the cliff is 100m then when it lands 100m below, delta y = -100 and plug u in. Then you get a quadratic equation, use quadratic formula to calculate t, disregard t as...

    Misadventure Question (Srs. thread)

    For senior science, your cohort will sit the test and the no.1 external mark they get will be given as an internal to rank 2. Then you get a higher mark based on the relative differences between you and the rest of the cohort.

    Section I - Multiple Choice

    This is wrong. The tariff raises the price of the good unconditionally, the producer does not obtain the revenue then pay it off, it is an additional price levied onto the cost of the good. Before the tariff, the revenue generated is 300 x $10 = $3000. I think we can all agree on that. After the...
