well i know for sure that i aced the detailed study, like a boss, as for the rest we see how it goes. Thought it was a bit of bullshit that there were a lot of explanations to be written not like the other years, VCAA did finish with a bang as this is the final year for mid years.

Are Statements Of Marks for mid-years available at the same time as for end of year exams or do they come out earlier?

does anyone know how harsh physics markers are on how you present your answer. For example, for the sprink constant k, i put the exact answer, 1687.5 while itute had 1.7x10^3. Is this okay?

I believe examiners don't are about scientific notation. Just so long as they can see you're answers correct. Oh and thanks, I'm pretty sure I've got this one correct as I wrote the same as you.

I took a completely different approach with the power output one...

I used V=I^2R, using the voltages from the graphs and currents from the question, to find R for each.
I then said that D1 is more efficient because it had a lower resistance then D2, and as P=V^2/R, the lower the resistance, the larger the power...
Sigh.
