Physics 12 Assignment

Today's assignment:
- Complete the 'Back EMF' worksheet

Also, I am still looking to take a team of students to the 31st Annual UBC Physics Olympics. As far as prizes go, participating in this event will look mighty impressive on any university/college applications you submit as well as for any scholarships you may be applying for. It will show your scientific ability as well as your ability to think out of the box.
The deadline to register is February 9th so I need responses preferably before the end of exam week so I can mail everything in on time.

More details to come.

PS. If you want to look at what the past Physics Olympics competitions were like here is a link to old rulebooks

Also this will be at least the second time NVSS has sent a team down as I ran across a District 91 news item from 1998 that had a Physics class attend the event. Couldn't find the ranking of NVSS then, but if we go I'm sure we'll do better!
