Setting year 12 Physics HW

As far as possible I will set Homework in the following manner.
I will post it on this site.
I will mainly refer to these files
These are all pdf files and you can search for the appropiate part eg 30W from the file 6wave behaviour.pdf. (It would be sensible if you could downlaod all these files onto your local computer as well)
I will also add the homework to the learning platform. This should appear when you log on. From my point of view it is here>

Order parts from
http://uk.rs-online.com/web/ order parts through RS as they are usually cheaper than http://www.maplin.co.uk, although you can order parts from them as well. I need part part numbers and prices to order
