I bullshitted my way through - something about water recycling plants and destroying ecosystems depending on their location and possible emissions if powered by fossil fuels and something something.

Grr, is the consensus that this is a stuff up? That's what I did too, talked about desalination?

Side note, does anyone have funny stories of things that went on at their school, or was it all smooth sailing? Nothing too interesting @ mine, one of the mobiles out the front in a box had a short text tone go off..

for the circuit, you would just have everything connected in series except the voltmeter in parallel with the lamp.

i put the lamp in series and the voltmeter in parallel because it said ' the voltmeter is in parallel to the lamp'

did i interpret the question wrong??

I hope I can scrape at least a mark or two in that

Come to think of it... I changed the diagram so many times that I can't remember what I did in the end :p
