no,"
if it gets at least 100',000 signatures, it will be considered for debate in the House of Commons.

Do not you think that 100,000 is kind of impossible?

Yep! Do you think it is a good idea to actually make a thread about this and post this e-petition website in the thread? I am sure many people will come. :smile: Actually, you make a thread on TSR I am going to post this on yahoo answers. What do you think? :smile:

Yeah that's what I got !!!!!

For some reason I divided the total Graviational potential energy by 55 (because it took 55 second) then divided that by 320KN then it came out with 22.2% ?

thats how I got it

Thank god haha ! I left that question right until the end and came off lucky I guess:smile:
Looking at the unofficial mark scheme, I think I've either got 51 (pessimistic) or 55 (optimistic). How many UMS could both of the marks be, respectively?

id say the best way is just to copy paste it on different threads and encourage others to do so, this way more people will see it and ,of course, also let other people know in other websites of you can which could be helpful. I think there already is a thread on this anyways.

98 and 107 possibly
Do you lose marks for significant figures in this exam?

Well you had the useful energy from the part before,

So I took the power it gave you in the question (320kW?) and multiplied that by the time 55s so you'd have the energy supplied in that time


Efficiency is useful/total * 100

I got 22% (2sf)
