A comprehensive lesson which teaches students how to calculate and justify if a system is in equilibrium in regards to turning forces, calculate the moment at an angle, describe how the centre of mass and centre of gravity of an object affect its stability and apply these to past paper calculations. Lesson is tailored towards the AQA A-level physics specification - Mechanics
Tasks are differentiated to suit the needs of each learner.
Learning objective: Calculate moments and apply this idea to object stability.
By the end of the lesson learners should be able to:
Success criteria:
SC1: Describe how to calculate moments.
SC2: Explain how to increase object stability.
SC3: Compare the centre of mass and centre of gravity.
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 13 slides and 23 past paper questions.
