Pulleys not too likely to come up in Electronics Smile

On the plus side, I got all the cogs/gearing questions right - good job too, logic fairly important in my job Big Grin

@Ian - I have indeed, and must note that I have actually shown a greater interest in Parent's Night since my son got into P2... :wink: Miss Mackay (not her real name :biggrinSmile is very nice!

They were called cogs when I was at school, junior...

And do note the use of the term "cogs/gearing" (you even quoted it) which I believe demonstrates I am aware of the terminology in use.

Defence rests m'lud.

Sparkystav I can see what you mean about it

A downwards piston will create a vacuum, in physics the vacuum does not suck in air, its the force of atmospheric pressure filling the void of negative pressure inside the cylinder.
But I can understand the confusion.

Defence rests m'lud.

*Technically* 'cogs' are the teeth. But there's also a bit of variance between British English and American English there as well.

Will stick with my plan of buying beer for the more mechanically minded :lol:

What you got against the word "cog" anyway Oli? Seems an awfully odd thing to try and one-up me over, seeing as I used both the term I'm familiar with and the "correct" one... heh must do better with witty retorts, Oli!
