physics "marking scheme".

Physics project by 05/11 (in pigeon hole by 12pm)
- <5 pages, single line spacing, font size =12

what must be in the report.
- clear explanation of the method to oil the pulley
- clear analysis of the physics concept involved
- feasibility + safety


MARKING SCHEME

actual feasibility
- application of analysis
- elegance of the method
- safety analysis (buy insurance before hand. just kidding)

analysis of method
- concepts
- impacts


"INCENTIVES"
- you will get the honour to oil the pulley. (if it still screeched the next morning..... ah ha...)
- mr koh's appreciation.

Uh, hello.


To all those in the Cold War Website team,
please go and read up your History textbook on the chapters on cold war, which is like the remaining part of the textbook we haven't done(the minimum), and look up the internet for more info that you think'd be useful and should be included.

If you're taking any material from any websites, please don't forget to note down the URL for acknowledgements.


Yes yes, so, please read up, at least have a rough idea of the topic and all over the weekend alright. We will gather on Monday after school in class for a short meeting/discussion, where we'll discuss the allocation of jobs like Site Design, the coding and others, and also the stuff that we should or should not include in the website.


So yeah, please be ready!
Don't don't read, if not you'll be quite lost during any discussion alright.

Cool? Cool. :D


Thanks!
Ellise

If you do not find your name in the above lists, then you are in the Geog field Trip. However, do note that the Geog FT is still tentative. the approval has yet been given for it.

I have also taken the liberty to choose leaders for each team. Geog Team will have to wait for further instructions. Cold War team can also wait till the start of the extended timetable when we start doing cold war.

The CH and Econs FT team, please get together by yourselves SOON to brainstorm of possible places that you think can incorporate both CH and Econs. If you are stuck, leaders please consult me as i have some ideas. However. i'd like you guys to have some choices first;)

The above will be stage 1 of your project. The finalisation of the place has to be done SOON so that we can do some research on the place as well as go down to the place for recce(this is the fun part!). I expect to see the team on thurs after school. So Hardy and Jun jie, start brainstorming with the input of your team members!!:)

If you need clarification, call me.

Have fun then!

MOTIVATION

Hi guys

Today is the mark to.......... another few days of exams(boring)!!!

BUT this will motivate you. For this EOY, we have taken a total of 14 hours and 25 mins of exams. Counting Monday it will be 17 hours and 25 min. That means to say we will be only left 5 hours and 30 mins of exams. So go for it!!!! If you can withstand up to 18 hours of exams, 5 hours will just be a small feat!!!!

The Best of Luck

LISTS OF AMA TRIG FORMULAE

AMATHS FORMULAE

ADDITION FORMULA


Sin (A+B) = sinAcosB + cosAsinB


Sin (A- B) = sinAcosB – cosAsinB

Cos (A+B) = cosAcosB – sinAsinB

Cos (A- B) = cosAcosB + sinAsinB

Tan (A+B) =

tanA + tanB
1-tanAtanB

Tan (A- B) =

tanA- tanB
1+tanAtanB

MULTIPLE ANGLE FORMULA

Sin 2A = 2sinAcosA

Cos 2A = cos²A - sin²A
= 1 – 2sin²A
= 2cos²A – 1

Tan 2A =

2tanA
1 - tan²A

R-FORMULA
acosө + bsinө ≡ R cos (ө - α)
acosө - bsinө ≡ R cos (ө + α)
asinө + bcosө ≡ R sin (ө + α)
asinө - bcosө ≡ R sin (ө - α)

where R = √a² +b² R>0
tanα = b/a α is acute

FACTOR FORMULAE
Sin X + sin Y = 2sin X+Y cos X-Y
_________________2 _______2

Sin X – sin Y = 2cos X+Y sin X-Y
_________________2 _______2

Cos X + cos Y = 2sin X+Y sin X-Y
_________________2 _______2

Cos X – cos Y = 2sin X+Y sin Y-X
_________________2 _______2


SPECIAL ANGLES (imagine the axises)
[ I QUADRANT]

Sin90 = 1
Cos90 = 0
Tan90 = ∞


[ II QUADRANT]
Sin180 = 0
Cos180 = -1
Tan180 = 0

[ IV QUADRANT]
Sin 0 = 0
Cos 0 =1
Tan 0 = 0



[ III QUADRANT]
Sin270 = -1
Cos 270 = 0
Tan 270 = ∞


SIMPLE TRIG IDENTITIES AND EQUATION

Tan θ =

sinθ
Cosθ

Cot θ =

cosθ
Sinθ

sin²θ + cos²θ = 1
tan²θ + 1 = sec²θ
cot²θ + 1 = cosec²θ





this list is not compiled by neither mrs phillip nor ama rep.
