Homework 3-5 on Wave Function was due in on Thursday 6th March.
We finished Unit 3 – Wave Function and the whole of Chapter 16 especially the mixed exercise. The work can be found on the MyMaths website under Library – A Level – Core 3 – Trigonometry – R-Alpha Method.
We then began Chapter 14 – Further Calculus which is a mixture of Differentiation & Integration which they should have mastered in Unit 1 & 2. As such, again pupils should have mastered essential topics from Standard Grade – the laws of indices and how to do basic calculations involving fractions which are in the Essential Skills chapter and can also be found on the MyMaths website. There will be yet more questions referring to the exact values of trigonometric angles.
We covered differentiating & integrating sine and cosine ratios before moving onto the Chain Rule and the class should have completed up to and including Ex14G by Tuesday 11th March. Once more algebraic manipulation is such an important aspect of being able to manage this work. The work can be found on the MyMaths website under Library – A Level – Core 3 – Differentiation – Differentiating Trig Functions & Chain Rule (also Product Rule & Quotient Rule) as well as Library – A Level – Core 3 – Integration – Integrating Sine & Cosine.
