4 weeks late buddy, also how was the exam? I thought it was pretty easy overall.

The paper was way better than physics unit 4. Question 13 was only hard
The paper was extremely easy and so many calculations loved it

it was easy man]
what did you gets get for binding energy per nucleon?
i got 2x10^-10 j

F=GMm/r^2 and F=mrw^2 equtae them both cancel out m make w^2 subject of formula and say that GM is constant since mass of the galaxy is constant

I got something ×10^-10 dont remember the exact value

Would i loose any mark if i didn't tell that Gm is constant but wrote that ω is proportional to 1/r³?Wrote everything instead of that...

it was of 2 marks so maybe you could lose a mark
i also forgot to write but wrote it in the last minute xD xD

Damn i hate it when i lose points from such mistakes... Don't you remember how many marks it got?
What about the boundary for A* guys? Lower than January's exam right? There were a lot of maths in it but it also had some tricky text answers. (sterilization and earth flux less than measured)

There werent many tricky questions and the calculations were straight forward so no idea about the boundaries

What did you guys write on the question on why is F*A giving the real flux?
I wrote lots of stuff about galactic dust which absorbs some energy but i knew they weren't really to the point so i said that the flux on earth isn't uniform and made a drawing showing that the flux on the front side of earth isnt the same as on the back side?

I said that flux doesnt depend on the srea of the object recieving and also there are alot of obstacles between the sun and earth which absorb the radiations
