Pendulum key words Amplitude (how far from vertical the string moves) Period ( time taken for one swing) Frequency ( number of swings per secon)
Which falls faster heavy or light?

Centripetal force Is any force that acts at 90 degrees to objects motion (towards centre of circle) of object. With out which object flies off in straight line
Magnetic feilds
The earth acts as a magnet
Arrows on field are drawn north to south Where the lines are close together the field is strongest In electromagnets field can change direction by changing the current

Practical problems
Step up transformer Always with respect to voltage Less coils more coils
Step down transformer Always with respect to voltage Less coils more coils
Stepping up 12 22
Stepping up 1:2 ratio voltage times 2
1:3 ratio voltage times 3 1:4 ratio voltage times 4 1:5ratio voltage times 5 Ratio = big number / small one
