<p>What did you guys think about the May SAT II Physics? I thought it was pretty difficult, hopefully the curve will do me well. Omitted 6.</p>
<p>my gosh it was awful</p>
<p>It was horrible! nothing like the practice tests, a ton of stuff not covered in my ap physics b class… Do colleges see every subject test you take or can you just send the good ones?</p>
<p>Test was pretty difficult, nothing like those sparknotes and barrons practice tests. Hope the curve is better this year.</p>
<p>I thought it was difficult, but my knowledge of electricity/magnetism/waves is limited to what I read on SparkNotes last night, so that might explain the trouble I had…</p>
<p>How did this one compare to the old Sat IIs (for those of you who may have retaken)? I felt like I did better on practice Barron’s tests</p>
<p>will the curve be acceptably modified though?</p>
<p>hard moneyyyy</p>
<p>definitely was not expecting that much difficulty. x.x</p>
<p>I didn’t think it was hard, it was just weird. I omitted one and I don’t think I missed more than 5.</p>
<p>it was indeed weird. I omitted none but guessed on 7, know for sure I got 3/7 of those right…are we allowed to discuss questions now?</p>
<p>It was kind of moderately hard. On a scale of 1-10, probably a 6/7</p>
<p>What did you have for the question about the waves on point P. I had decreasing because the amplitude is maximum at P and therefore it has to be lower (destructive) on either side.</p>
<p>the quark questions seemed kind of pointless. </p>
<p>Honestly, some of questions seemed more like SAT Math than physics. For example the quark question (which you didn’t need to know anything about physics to get correct) and the inverse square graph.</p>
<p>anybody remember what you guys got for Q74? it was about the force graph and getting acceleration?</p>
<p>I found it easy; however, I failed by using my left hand for the right hand rule.</p>
<p>I think i had .5 m/s2</p>
<p>I just used the impulse equation:</p>
<p>J = Ft = change in momentum</p>
<p>(F is the average force)</p>
<p>Guys, do you remember the questions on the last two pages?
Someone asked me about them and I don’t remember reading the ones he said at all . . .
Something about an airplane travelling at constant velocity and such?</p>
<p>can someone compile their answers? Also garfield, if you are talking about the direction of that one electron, it actually did go downward (so you could use left hand since it was an electron).</p>
<p>And the answer was 2.5 for 74 i believe. where it was 20 x .5 x .5 = 5 N and the mass was 2 kg. The final velocity is 2.5</p>
<p>For the pendulum question - the bar of metal that was heated frmo like, 25 to 50 or something? What happens to the period?</p>
<p>@csk: I actually knew it was an electron, so I still put the wrong answer</p>
<p>@Abrayo: The bar gets longer, and so the period is longer</p>
