Haha thanks for all the answers. :P And here's the thing: the tutor's also my physics teacher. Yeah. Make of that what you will. xD But everything you guys are saying makes perfect sense and I don't feel like a failure anymore (and I'm by no means a slacker x]). Oh well, I guess I just have to...
See, that's the strange part.
People who usually do decently (70s-80s) got horrible failing grades while the people who consistently get 90s...well they got 90s. :P AND to top it all off, the people who are usually lost and get 50s on the normal tests went to saturday tutoring and got 70s-80s...
I'm a junior so all the grades in the 3rd marking period get put on my transcript (it's the 3rd marking period right now). I asked my teacher what I got for my final and she said "Very bad. You got a 39. That's not good! I thought you were a good student." I told her that I thought did well. I...
Oooo, I think I drew the diagram wrong. xP Wait, so is the acceleration 3.23 m/s^2? And for the second part...hmmm...the force has to be greater in the "vertical" direction because the net force and acceleration goes in the direction of the greater force, right? Huh. But I don't know how to...
I just started taking physics this year (junior year in high school) and I can honestly say that I have no idea what's going on. Alright, so I know about free fall (well...the falling part of free fall, not when the ball bounces up and back down again) and acceleration, but pretty much anything...
