Post by: CharlieW on November 10, 2010, 02:46:12 pm
for all the people who thought the exam was piss

there were tricks

post some if u found some, i lost 2 marks on 0 flux. my head of physics also fell for it until some kid corrected us both

another trick i found was .0486 nm one, some ppl might accidentally write 486 nm

The question where ti asked for current through the ammeter rather than through the square loop.

Photonics, question 10. Lots of people would have said 1600nm where the graphs intersect, but if you add the two graphs, the lowest attenuation occurs at 1200nm (option C)

I almost fell for the first one, but correct myself. The second one wasn't really a trick.

The question of working out the peak-to-peak voltage when the RMS voltage was given (20.8).

I put in the Peak voltage, not peak-to-peak :(
