What's in the bank

What's covered

Wrong answers are chosen deliberately. Most of them are the mistakes that lose marks in this unit — leaving time in minutes, forgetting to square the speed, using the final temperature instead of the change, giving a social impact when the question asked for an environmental one, or calling a system automatic when a person is doing the controlling. If one catches you out, that is the bit to go back over.
