    Transformer Efficiency

    the first is more efficient in your thinking about self sustaining as the second one needs manual labour but it is obvious that the second one will more more efficent in terms of conservation of power due to the closeness of the coils btw i have seen the first one in action so it does indeed...

    a M&G riddle for ye

    its official the only thing in a school lab concerning eletricity that can kill you besides sticking your hands in a power point is and induction coil 10000 V is dangerous no matter how lil current there is

    Objects thrown under free fall

    answer is b remember you are throwing off a cliff, if you throw it up it will be under the affect of gravitation so if you think about it carefully v = u + at because its under a for a longer amount of time it will accelerate more and therefore will have a greater velocity

    right hand grip rule?!

    out of the palm ... another way of thinking of it is the right hand push rule f = qv x b thumb is v fingers are b palm is f you are pushing in the direction of the force f = il x b thumb is i fingers are b palm is f

    Teaching Physics at School

    hmm physics made fun ^^ random outbursts of "strangers in the night" in a horrible singing voice jokes dropped here and there as for the content we go through the theory and more XD goes into a bit too much detail sometimes but i guess it will raise our standard of answers we ourselves have to...

    Dot point help

    wellid say you'd need to break down the entire equation and evaluate it action at a distance point of view ie F = GMm R2 where M is the mass of the Earth and m is mass of the satellite F gives the force experienced by the object of mass m at a distance R from the center of the...

    Industrial Separation

    if you look around there are some great resouces posted by some hard working members which cover every aspect of this question XD they can be found here http://boredofstudies.org/view.php?course=11

    Chemsrty

    well the water in the sea water will have a boiling point of approximately 100 (as addatives will affect boiling points...) this will result in the water being boiled out and then condensed so i guess a propety is low boiling point

    Physical seperation techniques

    as for examples of those seiving - sand/rocks fractional distillation - crude oil to various carbon chains filtration - salt water/sand boiling is another technique but im sure theres a technical name for it

    Future applications of Batteries/cells

    well wouldnt it be best to describe the current applications? and before moving onto the 'potential' future uses of the batteries? take the button cell for example at the moment because of its small size it can be used in small appliences and gadgets. currently used in items such as hearing...

    Back To School!

    actually its not that bad when you actually get into it .... you might feel the 'stress' at first but then you'll get used to it and it'll be an everyday thing

    Ohm's Law

    ohms law .... potential difference (V) is proportional to the current (A) in a series circuit so basically V=KA where K is a constant which varies depending on the circuit ohms law takes this and says that K = R(resistance of the circuit) so basically you end up with V=RI

    A question on motion

    all possible but F as it must have speed of somesort .... unless of course there is an unmentioned acceleration to balance out the acceleration to the right which would result in zero acceleration = zero speed backing up forevaunited XD (didnt see his post till i finished typing ..)...

    Faraday's Rotating wire experiment - Question

    short version. faradays experiment showed that should a conductor cut lines of flux it will induce an emf longer version should a conductor cut lines of flux it will experience a change of flux, a change of flux results in a seperation of charge. a seperation of charge results in an emf and...

    Universal Gravitaional Constant??

    actually .. we would move .... we would go splat >< and we would feel lots of attraction to other objects .... *imagining human magnets*

    Faraday's Rotating wire experiment - Question

    i dont know about the other guys f3nr15 but at my school we do motors/generators before doing space... maybe the other schools are like this too

    assessing reliability&validity

    sorry but im gonna have to refer you to the other thread you made in physics since its pretty much the same thing http://community.boredofstudies.org/263/space/129516/assessing-reliabilty-validity-secondary-source.html

    Faraday's Rotating wire experiment - Question

    *EDIT (due to mistake found by helper)* eerrr technically a dc* motor is a combination of: a rotor an armature a stator (usually the magnets) a coil a power supply a split-ring commutator some carbon/copper brushes and involves taking electrical energy and transforming to mechanical energy...
