ACSPH026

The nuclear model of the atom describes the atom as consisting of an extremely small nucleus, which contains most of the atom’s mass and is made up of positively charged protons and uncharged neutrons surrounded by negatively charged electrons

ACSPH141

The Standard Model is based on the premise that all matter in the universe is made up from elementary matter particles called quarks and leptons; quarks experience the strong force, leptons do not

ACSPH142

The Standard Model explains three of the four fundamental forces (strong, weak and electromagnetic forces) in terms of an exchange of force-carrying particles called gauge bosons; each force is mediated by a different type of gauge boson

ACMGM082

apply Euler’s formula, \(v+f-e=2\), to solve problems relating to planar graphs.

ACMMM021

recognise features of the graph of \(y^2=x\) including its parabolic shape and its axis of symmetry.

ACMSM066

prove divisibility results, such as \(3^{2n+4}-2^{2n}\) is divisible by 5 for any positive integer n.

ACMSM065

prove results for sums, such as \(1+4+9\dots+n^2=\frac{n(n+1)(2n+1)}6\) for any positive integer n

ACMGM016

use matrices, including matrix products and powers of matrices, to model and solve problems; for example, costing or pricing problems, squaring a matrix to determine the number of ways pairs of people in a communication network can communicate with each …

ACMGM047

interpret piece-wise linear and step graphs used to model practical situations; for example, the tax paid as income increases, the change in the level of water in a tank over time when water is drawn off at different intervals and for different periods …

ACMGM077

use first-order linear recurrence relations to model and analyse (numerically or graphically only) practical problems; for example, investigating the growth of a trout population in a lake recorded at the end of each year and where limited recreational …

ACMSM127

use numerical integration using technology \(f\left(t\right)=\lambda e^{-\lambda t}\) for \(t\geq0\) of the exponential random variable with parameter \(\lambda>0,\), and use the exponential random variables and associated probabilities and quantiles …

ACSBL029

Models of ecosystem interactions (for example, food webs, successional models) can be used to predict the impact of change and are based on interpretation of and extrapolation from sample data (for example, data derived from ecosystem surveying techniques); …

ACSPH140

On the atomic level, energy and matter exhibit the characteristics of both waves and particles (for example, Young’s double slit experiment is explained with a wave model but produces the same interference pattern when one photon at a time is passed through …

ACMSM036

When a secant (meeting the circle at \(A\) and \(B\)) and a tangent (meeting the circle at \(T\)) are drawn to a circle from an external point \(M\), the square of the length of the tangent equals the product of the lengths to the circle on the secant. …

ACMGM070

use arithmetic sequences to model and analyse practical situations involving linear growth or decay; for example, analysing a simple interest loan or investment, calculating a taxi fare based on the flag fall and the charge per kilometre, or calculating …

ACMGM074

use geometric sequences to model and analyse (numerically, or graphically only) practical problems involving geometric growth and decay; for example, analysing a compound interest loan or investment, the growth of a bacterial population that doubles in …

ACMSM055

define and use basic linear transformations: dilations of the form \((\mathrm x,\mathrm y)\longrightarrow({\mathrm\lambda}_1\mathrm x,{\mathrm\lambda}_2\mathrm y)\) , rotations about the origin and reflection in a line which passes through the origin, …

ACMSM086

identify subsets of the complex plane determined by relations such as \(\left|z-3i\right|\leq4\) \(\frac\pi4\leq Arg(z)\leq\frac{3\pi}4\), \(Re\left(z\right)>Im(z)\) and \(\left|z-1\right|=2\vert z-i\vert\)

ACMSM136

consider and solve problems involving motion in a straight line with both constant and non-constant acceleration, including simple harmonic motion and the use of expressions \(\frac{dv}{dt}\), \(v\frac{dv}{dx}\) and \(\frac{d(\frac12v^2)}{dx}\) for a …
