Most correctly identified that W = mg, g is the local gravity

typically on a planets surface, it is subject to factors like altitude
and anomalies (Variation) in the make up of the planet. Pendula
measurement of the local acceleration includes g and the local
centripetal acceleration caused by the rotation of the earth.

Change in GPE is achieved by applying a force over distance or

doing work

For projectile motion at the peak of the motion the Vvert =0, the
time reach a height for which Vvert = 0 is sqrt (2 h/ g) derived from
d = 1/2 a t2.
Thus there are two situations where the time of flight is the same,
1) Where a projectile is launched to the same height
2) Where projectile, is launched horizontally

The aether experiment was designed to measure the

prevailing speed of the aether with respect to the earth, or the
earths speed with respect to the aether. The theory is that any
round trip in a current has a time blow out, or in interferometer
terms has a fringe shifts, interference fringes measure the
time difference of a path

Ampere law states F/l = kI1I2/d. So Y has a force F to the left

due to attraction given from the text Fyz is F/2 as the distance
is double ie 3F/2

Using the fill in the box never fail technique we find Fyz is -1/2
of Fxy

A coil flat to the field has opposing forces up and down on the
sides travelling 90 deg thus rotates around the axis

P = IV, R = V/I V = IR P = I^2 x R

Thus high voltage transmission lines exploit the high voltage,

Induction Cook tops use ohmic heating of metal pan, Eddy

currents heat the actual pan only

Using Faraday law, as you increase the flux over time, the
voltage is negative, if the flux decrease the voltage is positive

Transformer are electrically powered

This statement is true as it explains advantages and
disadvantages of eddy currents

In induction cooking, transformers, magnetic breaking

where the eddy current produces heating, and electric
power where it is wanted this is an advantage.

In transformer cores it is a disadvantage
