I dont know r u asking this question or telling us

You have to say 'without it changing state'

I rate that still.

Mechanical engineering at Imperial. If you are at imperial next year you have to link me g.

my firm is mathematics at imperial still, Ill holla ya when the results come through.
My offer includes STEP exams, so it depends on those if i get in or not

"with no change of state" is a pretty important part of the definition I think, when I've seen it before you need that for the marks.

Ah, well I'm glad I included it then! Makes up for the stupid mistakes I made on other bits :frown:

Will be interesting to see if the boundaries increase for this given people seem to agree it was similar if not harder than last year's?

I hate medical physics! I'm doing Mech Eng at uni and it doesn't help in the slightest. :frown:

Our teacher's claimed it was the easiest module though, so I just went with it. :P

aw no! It would've been so much better to do applied then :frown:

not fair you didn't get to choose! lol it so isn't, purely cos of the detail you need to learn

I think it stated the specific heat capacity of Lead and asked what that sentence meant. In which case I believe I'm right in saying you had to explain specifically that 130J of energy would raise the temperature of 1kg of Lead by 1K.
