2009 HSC, Question 4(b)
Another question on the conical pendulum, this time with a minor variation that has it constrained to the surface of a cone. The message is still the same - set your question up clearly, finding components in the horizontal and vertical (or in some cases, radially and tangentially), the use Newton's Second Law.
If you can successfully find the components, most of the subsequent parts following relatively easily.

2014 Sydney Morning Herald HSC Study Guide
As they have been doing for a good number of years, the Sydney Morning Herald have again published their HSC Study Guide. Here is the link for this years guide. It contains a lot of very useful advice.

2006 HSC - The Conical Pendulum
Another question on the conical pendulum. Notice how they are similar?
1999 HSC - The Conical Pendulum
Questions on conical pendulums are quite common in the HSC, albeit with minor variations. Most start with having you finding components of the forces acting on the bob, so this is something you need to be able to do.
