iGCSE Physics PowerPoint that covers the topic of thermal radiation. This 14 page powerpoint explains how thermal radiation (infrared) is absorbed and emitted from different surfaces. Two experiments are explained in detail as well as the results from the Leslie cube demonstration including a FLIR photo. A vacuum flask diagram is also explained and links back to the previous lesson on conduction and convection. Common misconceptions are also highlighted. This is the third of 6 topics in this units of work and is aimed at covering approximately 2-3 hours of teaching, including the experiments.

This is a lesson and PowerPoint introducing the history and development of the model of the atom. This is the third lesson in the Atomic Structure unit of work (P4). The lesson covers the main scientists that have built up the theory of the atom over the centuries. The idea of theories and how they are developed and refined is discussed and some ideas for classroom activities are also included.

This is a detailed lesson and PowerPoint introducing the change of state of matter. This is the fourth lesson in the Particle Model unit of work (P3). The lesson covers the theories of solids, liquids and gases and the changes of state between them including a practical idea, conservation of mass and the difference between physics and chemical changes. The lesson plan is step by step including extension ideas and the learning objectives linked directly to the syllabus.

This is a lesson and PowerPoint that covers supernova (Type II and Ia), light curves and hydrogen lines of supernova, black holes (Schwarzschild radius calculations and Chandrasekhar limit), gamma ray bursts and the overall luminosity of these events. As well as supporting A-Level Physics for many exam boards this lesson is also part of a chapter that covers the optional astrophysics unit 9 for AQA

This is a lesson and PowerPoint recapping Specific Heat Capacity. This is the fifth lesson in the Particle Model unit of work (P3). The lesson links the theories of solids, liquids and gases and the particle model to specific heat capacity. The PowerPoint explains the formula for specific heat capacity and contains a simple table for pupils to test their mathematical skills against. The lesson plan is step by step including extension ideas and the learning objectives linked directly to the syllabus.

This is a detailed lesson and PowerPoint explaining how a potential difference is induced by a magnet and coil of wire. This is the sixth lesson in the Electromagnetism unit of work (P7). The lesson covers the basic idea of inducing a PD and current, then moves on to explain how to work out the orientation of the current flow and induced magnetic field in a coil of wire. The differences between an alternator and dynamo are covered including the graphs of current over time. Ideas for differentiation, discussion, research and homework also included in lesson plan as well as the equipment list for a recommended investigation and demonstration of AC / DC on an oscilloscope.

This is a lesson and PowerPoint that covers resolution of telescopes, Rayleigh criterion, calculating the maximum resolution for any aperture and links to the use of non-optical telescopes.

This is a 17 slide PowerPoint and a worksheet of questions that covers BTec National Engineering (A-Level equivalent) on the topic of Rotational Motion. This is the fifth PowerPoint in this section which covers an introduction to circular mathematics and applies this to rotational engineering. This includes Angular Displacement, Radians, Angular Velocity, Angular Displacement, Tangential Velcoity, Centripetal Acceleration, and Torque.

iGCSE - Refraction of light and refractive index This lesson covers the refraction of light and the calculation of refractive index when passing from air into transparent materials. This lesson also demonstrates the experiment that can be performed, step-by-step with animation. There are also two examples of light entering and exiting other shapes (prism and edge of a square) which can cause pupils issues in exams.
