Elluminate Sessions!!!!


Elluminate Live! focus sessions are here! Elluminate Live! is a multi-purpose virtual classroom where we will discuss various Physics topics in-depth and work through exam style questions. These sessions will be run at night, during the week, throuhgout the year.

You will be able to participate in discussions via a headset with microphone, use a back-channel chat function, raise your virtual hand to ask questions, draw on a whiteboard, perform calculations etc.

What will you need to participate in these sessions?
-internet connection
-headset with microphone
-an eagerness to master all aspects of VCE Physics

The best part is that if you are unable to attend one of the Elluminate Live! sessions they will be saved and archived for viewing at a later date.

Links to recordings are available upon request.

Welcome

Welcome to the VCE Physics Unit 3&4 Virtual Learning Community.

Make sure you take advantage of the tremendous learning opportunities available to you here within our private community. We have access to an amazing group of experienced teachers, members of the Australian Institute of Physics and Textbook authors. Dont be shy! This community will only be as worthwhile as you make it!

Having trouble with a particular concept? Need advice on how to attempt a particular problem? Perhaps you are unsure of how a question is worded? Then ask for help!

Some things to do right away:
-customize your 'My Page'
-reply to the Getting to know you discussion
-introduce yourself to someone you may not know by leaving a message on their 'My Page'
-comment on one of the videos to the right-hand side of the page

Once you feel comfortable navigating your way around, find a conversation that interests you and leave a reply. Can't find one that interests you - then start your own!

(Note: If you can see this site from school but have any difficulty actually using the site it may be a filtering issue related to your schools internet policy. You could perhaps ask your IT tech to remove it from the filter list. Otherwise you may have to access it from home or outside of the school network. Sorry!).

Yeah, what you said about a diagram showing voltage at one place is what I meant. That helps a lot.   Thanks, Daniel

No worries, I'm glad my ramble made sense to you.   Resistors of different values: Lets take the first example and say that the top resistor has double the resistance of the bottom one. This just means that voltage across the top resistor…

Thanks for that Tristan. That's making sense to me now and yes, your answers are correct. To add to this discussion, in the second one, if the resistors had different values what would you do to work out the voltage across them? Also, I'm…

Tristan Vale replied to Daniel Douch's discussion 'How do I use this formula?'
Hi,   If all the resistors have the same value, you can just assign a random value to the resistors to apply your formula.   For example, lets just make our resistors 10 ohms.   If we apply your formula to the first circuit we would…

How do I use this formula?

There is a section near the beginning of Chapter 8 in my Checkpoints book which asks me to find Vout on a range of circuits and it tells me that the Vin is 24 V and that all the resistors have the same value. I have a formula for working these out which is:Vout = (Vin*R1)/(R1+R2)Using this formula (or a more useful technique), how would I work out the following situations: (I didn't understand the solutions that the book gives).…See More

Thanks tristan, I understand completely about the frames of reference. Didnt even think of the water having velocity once it left the tanker.Thanks for the help :)

G'day mate, I've just joined this site and see no one has answered your question, despite the fact it was posted almost two months ago!   I'll draw your focus to Newton's 1st law. Just because the water leaves the tanker,…
