HSC Extension Two Maths Mechanics Exam
Use arrows on the side of the screen to move between pages.
Important: These tests take time to write, if you’re in a position consider buying me a coffee so I can keep doing this in the long term.
Below is a skills checklist I wrote based on the syllabus, if you can do everything listed below you should be in a good position for both your school’s mechanics test and the mechanics questions in the HSC.
Understand simple harmonic motion
Prove a particle is undergoing simple harmonic motion
Understand the relationship between displacement, velocity and acceleration
Use Newton’s laws
Derive and use the equations of motion for a particle travelling in a straight line resisted and unresisted
Solve problems involving particles in resistive mediums
Understand the concept of terminal velocity
Use parametric and cartesian equations to solve projectile motion questions
Solve projectile motion questions for particles in resistive mediums and under the influence of gravity
