    How likely are we to see some of the experiments that have never come p before this year like to show that a is proportional to f and variation of a thermistor with temperature ??

    The F proportional to A one is definitely one to look at for mechanics, but Conservation of Momentum, Boyle's Law and Equilibrium of Coplanar Forces are also likely!

    only thing im sketchy about a prop. f is cause its so damn easy and its only ever shown on the ordinary paper (2iwce i think) in the past.
    coplaner forces lookin good tho.

    My Phys teacher claims to be often quite close to her guesses, and she put a Cadbury's Choccy Bar on:
    • Momentum OR F=ma
    • Latent Heat of vaporisation
    • Snells Law
    • Joules Law OR I-V graph

    Most of the experiments aren't that tricky to word or lay out, it's always the graph (if there is one) that I mess up on :mad:

    What experiment is that ? Does she have any predictions for the long q's ?

    Sorry! Couldn't think of the name for it. It's the Ohm's Law experiment, Current against Voltage.

    Not much on the long Q's as it's so broad. However, she has said she thinks a Q on centripetal force will come up, and then a long list of little bits to memorize for the Particle Physics, fundamental forces, pair annihilation and more.

    Did to measure the wavelength of monochromatic light come up last year? That one comes up quite often.
