Has anyone started their detailed study yet, at school we are doing it before electronics and photonics.

We haven't started it yet, we spent the last few weeks of school on our EPI.

I imagine structures and materials will be what we'll be starting next week.

What were your EPI's like?

I did my EPI on structures and materials, all we did was measure the deflection of beams or cantilevers when you applied a force (We just put on weights).

It's fairly easy, just my teacher hasn't explained it to us properly, and we have to hand it in next thursday :)

What's everyone up to in Physics?

We're starting our detailed study first day back.

Can I just say that if you can choose your detailed study, do special relativity! You won't regret it :D

We did ours on motion, almost the entire class did projectile motion.

nope, most people do structures which to me is so damn boring, and if you're doing special relativity, you get 2/3 weeks off physics coz serps said you can self study at home :D

We started our detailed study pretty much the first day back (Further Electronics) which lead on to Electronics and Photonics. On the last/second last week of term we started motion and will be doing that until whenever we finish. From then on, it's revision!

shouldnt further electronics be done after electronics and photonics? or is it a more basic course?

It's about the same, just different content. I thought it'd be more logical, you do need to use ohm's law etc in further.
