A comprehensive lesson which teaches students how to resolve vector diagrams via: pythagoras, trigonometry and scale drawings. Lesson is tailored towards the AQA A-level physics specification - Mechanics
Tasks are differentiated to suit the needs of each learner.
Learning objective: Learning objective: Apply trigonometry and Pythagoras to resolve vectors
By the end of the lesson learners should be able to:
Success criteria:
SC1: Compare scalars and vectors.
SC2: Use pythagoras and trigonometry in order to solve net vectors including inclined planes.
SC3: Use scale diagrams to resolve net vectors when coplanar forces are in equilibrium.
Contains past paper questions that target this topic, some questions require knowledge from prior lessons. There is also a guide attached with written walkthroughs of how to reach the final answer, even for those tricky 1 mark questions.
Powerpoint contains 14 slides and 14 past paper questions.
