If anyone has got notes on electricity it will be helpful! Thanks! I need to teach myself electricity again from scratch. :s-smilie:

Do ALL past papers twice as practice makes perfect.

Also it's definitely worth doing the questions on the following link:

as practice makes perfect!

Make sure you UNDERSTAND the stuff. I do not create much notes for physics and just focus purely on the practice as it's quite mathematical.

the below links can help:

They are very helpful for understanding the stuff in unit 1

Here's some notes I found which may help some:

Do you think it's going to be easier


Posted from TSR Mobile
What ever it is...you should rush...rush from the moment the paper is given.... don't look back...just rush....just get the gist of the intro or rubric of each question..they usually give dumb stupid crappy intro that has nothing or won't help you to answer. Just do paper as fast as you can...all difficult questions keep for the end

.Unit 1 thought me this!
Just rush rush

No ***king time:frown:
This is the beat advice :biggrin:
Did these exam in Jauary got a D now hoping to aget a A . But today uni 1 raped me and i gurantee I did not enjoy it.

Same here. Everyone struggled

I found it pretty easy to be honest, Just that astronaut question that stumped me! Anyone got the paper or a link?
Reply 28
does anyone know how they did in the coursework? we've literally been told nothing, and I was wondering if this was the same for everyone?
Reply 29
my teacher told us what we need to improve in the coursework, but apparently exam score can affect urcoursework grade slightly as well

What did you get for the CO2 emissions question?

was that question about u need to find out 3 cars emission in 5 ms - 3 cars emission in 20ms?

It wasn't anything to do with physics it was just maths, just adding and timesing etc. Did anyone get the " A small mass is dangling from a string at 7' from the vertical show the cars travelling at 1ms"
Help needed with jan 2009 question 13)b

ImageUploadedByStudent Room1369311311.926043.jpg

What is the method of finding the currents.


Posted from TSR Mobile
I don't get it :frown: it's from the january 2009 paper and i'm so blah, confused. could someone please explain?

A student looks at the sunlight reflected off a puddle of water. She puts a polarising (Polaroid) filter in front of her eye. As she rotates the filter the puddle appears darker then lighter.
Explain this observation.

Its simple addition and subtraction. Since its a parallel circuit the current has split up. If we start off with 30mA, 20mA goes towards the top then obviously 10mA goes to the bottom. And If we know 20mA is flowing at the top then 15gmA goes downwards then 5mA will continue going forward. For I3 however much current we started with must be the same we ended with.
