y = x³ - 3x² - 24x + 5, First, calculate the derivative of y and find its roots when y = 0:dy/dx = 3x² - 6x -24 = 0 -> x² - 2x - 8 = 0 -> (x+2)(x-4) = 0Th...

Sphere A has mass m and velocity +3v so its initial momentum is 3mv. Sphere B has mass 2m and velocity -v so its initial momentum is -2mv. Therefore we can say:3mv - 2mv = M_cv_c, wher...

Conservation Laws are useful because they establish fixed rules that physical interactions must follow, which helps physicists to better understand these processes. In particular, they provide a picture o...

Markovnikov's rule states that, during electrophilic addition to alkenes/alkynes, the hydrogen atom in the electrophile will be added to the carbon atom in the alkene/alkyne that is bonded to he most hydr...

There are many ways to memorise quotes and although it will always be a slog, it can actually be the most fun and rewarding part of revision. Before memorising you've got to organise quotes. A big play or...
