You guys are saying the circuit was in series?
I thought it was in parallel, as this halves the effective resistance and hence gives a power of 600W which was half of the original 1200W element.

It was in series. Halving the resistance doubles the current and . Sorry to break it to you.

You had to double the resistance, by putting the elements in series, which consequently halves the power. :)

What?.. Why does the equation not align with the explanation.. No matter.. Argh, I trusted the MGS guy at VU. He said Lenz's law is Faraday's with the negative >.<

I reckon a bastard examiner won't see what I meant and would penalise me for what he perceives as hedging my bets xD

MGS guy?

Um Geoff Davies ran the free VU lecture.

lol he ran the TSFX mid-year...got dropped ey  :buck2:

NO I'M OBVIOUSLY KIDDING derrrrr





He took the end of the year Sound too ( if i remember right)

nah it was anthony novak. the guy who always delivered a 15minute hate speech against vcaa before lectures. wouldnt blame him one bit.


oh truee that! but maybe Light then! im sure he was in something :/ maybe im thinking midyear then .
