Cambridge Chat (previously New Cambridge Students Entry 2004)

well i've tackled the first 15 without any serious problems...i dont think i'm going to find time in the next two days to do much more of it!

Okay all fresher Natscis:
Have you done the maths book/reading list?
I want to know if I'm worrying without reason

Reading list- I tried to read 1 feynman book that wasn't on the list, got half way through it then gave up, it was just too damn confusing.

Maths book- to be honest I found it stanky to say the least. I'm getting pretty worried now... although it's weird, towards the end, some questions I found realy simple, but the next one would be impossible! It's taken me about 18 sides of A4 so far, and I've got the last 2 questions left to do- some stanky integrations. Ach.

gah cant believe you actually did it! I got to the graph sketching and thought "pah, boring" and stopped!

Hmmm, tempting but no. I'm not your bitch today.

Ah that's a point- I got stuck on that, can't remember the questions exactly, but how do you draw the graph of y = 3x^2/3 ? I've never come across that before! Also, how do you draw the graph of y = e^x sin x ?

Also, how do you draw the graph of y = e^x sin x ?

I think this happens to be almost the expression which comes from solving the differential equation which describes damped harmonic motion. Or in nicer terms... a mass on a spring with resistance! (in this case it's like a pendulumn somehow gaining energy?!)

So basically, draw |y| = e^x faintly, then sketch a sin graph in it, obviously starting at 0.

Alex, stop please!! For the sake of my sanity.

I'm sorrrrry :'( I haven't done any maths for months. I totally forgot what I liked in it until just then.

I've been trying to forget.

solve

e^x = sin x

Don't start . God, i absolutely hate Maths. Ever since this year's OCR P3 Paper i've hated it. Why do you think i did vet med, less Maths.

You got a good result. Be proud!

yup lets not talk maths please! I dont want to think work until I absolutely must!
