Hi Ken,

For anyone that hasn't seen the sample paper, a sample exam for the new study design is now available and has answers for the multiple choice section. Thanks for drawing my attention to the paper Ken.
http://www.vcaa.vic.edu.au/Documents/exams/technology/sysengin-samp-w.pdf


I have just skimmed the answers to the multiple choice section and I have several queries that are worth discussing in this forum.

Multiple choice
Q2 I believe that field testing tests refer to performance requirements. My answer (D).
Q6 Hydraulic pumps force the fluid around the outside of an external pump gear, the answer appears to indicate that the fluid is forced through the gears. My answer (C).
Q7 can someone confirm that the pressures are the same at these points? I know that this is not referring to the points where the gears mesh causing high pressure or where the gears separate causing low pressure, but I imagine that there would still be a lower pressure at point D then C. However, I don't have any practical experience with these pumps.
Q18 Nand gate, My answer (C).
Q20 the picture indicates the same number of windings(200) for the input and output, so the ratio should be 1:1. My answer (C).

Neville,

The file you attached was the assessment report to the 2012 Exam.

I am looking for the answers to the 2013-2017 sample exam on the VCAA Website.

Hi Ken,

Have you downloaded the Assessment Report from the VCAA site.



http://www.vcaa.vic.edu.au/Pages/vce/studies/systemseng/exams.aspx



Most of the questions have worked asnswers or descriptions.



There is , however, there is a problem with Question 17b.

The answer is technically correct as the relay does turn the lights on and off. The problem is that realy is energised when the lights are off. This will lead to the battery going flat whenever the car isn't used for some period of time.

The top (normally off) contact should be connected to the lights in order for the curcuit to operate in real life situation, where the relay is energised when the lights are on.



Cheers

Neville Young

Sorry Ken, I didn't read your question properly and assumed you were following on from previous emails. I've had a look and see what you mean regarding answers. I will be giving this to my students on Wed and will see if I can work my way through it by then and send you a copy.

Cheers

That will be appreciated Harry.
And any other Systems Engineering Teacher is welcome to post their solutions.
Some of the questions are very difficult and I am struggling to come up with answers.
