Full Lesson PowerPoint and resources to teach the GCSE 9-1 specification Physics lesson on Transformers and Energy. It covers how the national grid transmits electricity around the country, why step-up and step-down transformers are used, that transformers can change the voltage of an alternating current, how a transformer works, the factors that affect the size and direction of an induced potential difference and how the magnetic field opposes the original change.
The resource is appropriate for Combined Science classes, foundation and higher tiers. The second half of this lesson is higher tier only, however, foundation classes will need longer for the the first section on the national grid and will probably take up a full lesson for them.
Note: If you are teaching the triple science topic on Electromagnetic Induction (SP13) the lessons are quite different so see my lessons on SP13 in my TES shop instead.
The FREE sample lesson “GCSE Physics Energy Stores and Transfers FULL LESSON (Edexcel 9-1 CP3a SP3a) Conservation of Energy” is also available to download from my TES shop.
