Still going through the lecture.

I'm so out of my depth, I never did A level Physics!!

Not if you had time to catch up, can you not do it at work or use your 3G from your phone as a hot spot?

anyone done lab0?

I'm getting "unknown error" when trying to check my answers at the end

I'm getting unknown error as well.

Working fine here.

You've got to drop the signs eg V, uA etc... even though it states "volts with correct sign"

[bobbarley]

I got one correct answer.  Absolutely no idea what's going on and I studied Electronics at school!

[Jay]

I had to crack out a calculator, an online calculator to converts some units from representational units to EG uA to full decimal units it's been a long old day and ages since I had to do this level of conversion.

got there in the end 

Nige, don't feel to bad, I also did electrical eng at high school and I can't remember sh!t about it

[bobbarley]

I think my lack of Physics will be my undoing.  I didn't know any of Ohms laws or the other rules.

[Jay]

Neither do I, not had to use them in 13 years - when or if I need them I'll read up on them.

Got that textbook in PDF format?

[bobbarley]

I haven't no, been looking at the online one you get when you've logged in.

How's the course, I did a levels in physics, maths and chemistry, also did electronic engineering and worked in manufacturing in the field for a few years.

Is it time consuming and any practical side to it?
