Aimed at ks3 students or year 11 students, it serves as a qualitative introduction to resultant forces and their effect on the motion of everyday, and some not everyday, objects. Challenging extension tasks are provided for more able students. Enjoy. A Science Geeks video included too!
Proper Advanced Physics as students are questioned about objects in equilibrium. This DOUBLE SIDED worksheet comes complete with FULLY WORKED ANSWERS. It’s newton’s laws in actions as problems involving inclined planes, things suspended from strings and other such testing scenarios are presented to students. Put your Physics class through their paces and test their limits with this challenging worksheet. Don’t forget to check our BUNDLE offers to make savings on related worksheets.
The science geeks present a two sided worksheet on the pesky topic of redshift and the Big Bang! This DOUBLE SIDED worksheet contains a range of questions to suit all abilities. There is also an accompanying 2 minute Science Geeks YouTube video available that provides students (and teachers) with all the basic knowledge they need to know.
The Science Geeks challenge your knowledge of acceleration in this fiendishly challenging worksheet!
After getting you up to speed gently, the questions increase in difficulty.

Y.O.Y.O. lessons - Scientific investigations designed to develop problem solving skills and make independent learners of our spoon students! In this one they investigate how the mass of a ramp affects friction between it and another surface! Dragging wood blocks slowly in other words! Students must complete the set task without any help whatsoever from their teachers. They have only the worksheet to help them. They can only ask you a question if they use a joker card! (They have three of them - one specific question per Joker). Complete it without using jokers and win rewards! Character building for both staff and students and an excellent lesson to use for formal observations and OFSTED invasions. This is how real scientists are made. The resource comes with a set of joker cards, a worksheet for the lesson and a teacher guide with the YOYO rules as a PowerPoint. Enjoy!
