Twelfth grade, senior year, or grade 12 is the final year of secondary school in most of North America. In other regions, it may also be referred to as class 12 or Year 13. In most countries, students are usually the ages of 17 and 18 years old. Some countries have a thirteenth grade, while other countries do not have a 12th grade/year at all. Twelfth grade is typically the last year of high school (graduation year).

A pulley device is used to hurl projectiles from a ramp (uk=0.26) as illustrated in the diagram. The 5.0-kg mass is accelerated from rest at the bottom of the 4.0 m long ramp by a falling 20.0-kg mass suspended over a frictionless pulley. Just as the 5.0-kg mass reaches the...
Hi.. I am a keen student in physics 12 under the bc corric.. right now were doing static equillibrium.. and I am looking for sites, texts etc.. with loads of sample problems that can help me nail this unit and upcoming ones as well..
any help would be great thanks
I was looking for some good pages on Projectile Motion with challanging problems. I'm in grade 12 and I figure the questions in the book are not too challanging (not that I would get 100% on every test but by doing harder questions you understand it more conceptually).
I'm looking for some...

Was just wondering if there was a "shorter" method of solving this problem.
nPr = 60.
nPr = n!/(n-r)!
n=?
r=3
Works out to be
n(n-1)(n-2) = 60.
From here on, what different options do I have? I have several ways of solving it, but was wondering what would be the "easiest"...
