It said MACROSTRUCTURE so you just draw the laminate.... laminated glass for example
Lol I have no idea why I didn't do that, I wasn't sure if they used it on planes. I ended up drawing some disgusting picture of like fibres in epoxy resin hahah had no idea

Well you have an 18V battery and theres some electrical device that uses up 2V so your remaining voltage is 16, do u have skype mate???
Nah. Sorry to be a pain and keep this going but I believe it said the voltage measured after the lightbulb was 2V, not that it used 2V. I must have misread it then. Anyone remember / have a paper?

And the velocity ratio question screwed me..

I don't do engineering but I've seen some of their work, you might be surprised how hard this subject actually is. The calculations are definitely harder (they have mechanics), there's technical drawings and to top it off a lot of theory ---> all that for a low scaling 2 units. I'm glad I didn't pick it that's for sure

My marks are about equal in Physics and Engineering so yeah.. I dunno really. Physics requires you have a good understanding of everything in the course to get good marks, mainly because of the turn to writing more descriptive answers and almost essays than doing equations and stuff. Engineering has a lot of stuff to learn, and the mechanics can be difficult, however for the most part the questions that you just answer in sentence format are usually really really easy.
