for the P6 six marker,do u think they'll allow if I talked about primary voltage not primary coil

Probably. Hard to tell though

For the first one, I used the letters to indicate the journey of the current- I also stated it was a positive half cycle.

For the second one, I did the same thing (in the opposite direction) but then mentioned it was during the negative half cycle.

I didn't like the wording of the question so I'm not too sure if I did it correctly or not :rolleyes:


I swear the bridge circuit looked different to the one we learned about too :confused:

I can't believe school is completely over for me now... I feel a mix of happiness and nostalgia, it's hard to explain

Thanks to ryan, BP, l'Evil etc. We were like one big revision... machine... thingy. Anyway, I hope I see you guys around threads in the summer holidays and obviously more so when we're doing our A-Levels (because we've all chosen the same-ish!:biggrin:)

It looked quite similar to the one I was taught in class...:s-smilie:
But I wasn't too sure on what they meant by it being positive at P and negative at Q (or something like that :confused:)

Yeah I probably lost a few marks there :frown: oh well, I thought the rest of the paper was quite nice, no motors or generators WOO!

Yeah, it's been fun though! :biggrin:
I'll definitely be seeing you since we're on the same exams for 3 out of 4 of our subjects...I'll probably see Ryan and l'Evil if they're on the same exam boards as us :biggrin:

I have one more exam so I'll probably have the same feelings about a week from now :tongue:

Good luck buddy, make sure you're prepared!

Edit: Um, what is even neg-worthy about that? :confused:

Maths,Further maths, physics and computer science but i want to do chem..ideally would do 5 but workload might be too high and i don't want to do Chem and stuff it up(i like it but find it quite challenging already). My dad does computer science as a job so that's an A in the bag already :P Opinions on Chem? Any advice/changing around would be GREATLY appreciated!

I've taken physics, math, further maths and chemistry (same as andersson) :smile:

I'm being criticised heavily by close friends for taking chemistry (they think I'm making the wrong decision as it's supposedly very difficult :cool: )

What are you taking :smile:

Which exam board do you guys do???? Ours is OCR for all three sciences :smile: And Edexcel for maths.

What do you want to do when you're older? :smile:
Well, before I chose to take chemistry, I looked through the syllabus for the exam board we'd be on and then made my decision from there- I decided to do chemistry mainly because there was a large module in the syllabus all about atoms, atomic sctructures, electrons, orbits etc which I have always found interesting :biggrin:

Some of the concepts taught in chemistry at A level are also taught when doing a physics degree (and possibly engineering as well)...But do what you think you would enjoy :smile:

I'm on Edexcel for maths/further maths/ physics and OCR for chemistry. So we'd be on the same exam boards for all but physics (same as andersson) :redface:

Edit: not sure or why mine, or some of the posts before, were negged... :confused:
