Physics Exam P3 six marker 17/06/2016

What did you guys write for the six marker?:smile: I seriously messed up on it!:frown:
My answer was along the lines of:
- attach one end of each connecting cable to power supply
- attach other end of each cable to the wire to complete the circuit
- wrap wire around nail and use clamp to hold up nail
- turn on power
- see how many nails electromagnet can hold
- test for different voltages (every 2V) and compare number of paper clips held
- repeat at least 2x to identify anomalies

That had to be one of the easiest 6 markers I have seen in sometime. That alongside P2s Alpha Beta Gamma

I did the wrapping the wire bit and connecting the wire to the power supply.:smile: But I also added some random bits in like rubbing the steel paperclips on the electrolysed nail etc.:redface: Hopefully I get at least 3/4marks!:biggrin: How did you find the exam overall?:smile:
