Here’s a short video I made to explain the difference between EMF and potential difference. Hope you like it!
How is EMF different from potential difference? When we talk about EMF, that is the energy converted into electrical energy from a source per unit charge. But potential difference is the energy dissipated by a unit charge when charge carriers go through a component, such as a light bulb.
Here’s a worksheet/handout I give to my physics class when teaching magnetic fields. I’ve also provided a link to a video I created to show how to carry out the experiment for plotting the magnetic field lines around a bar magnet.
Enjoy!
Here's a revision mat / knowledge organiser for Magnetism & Electromagnetism. It covers magnetic materials, magnetic fields, electromagnets, left hand rule, right hand rule, and motor effect. Print it out as an A3 or shrink it down to A4 (select scale to A4 when printing). I have included a version of the resource with larger font size.
Enjoy!
Here’s a worksheet for students practising the use of equations of motion. I’ve also included a video that we can use to show students how to derive all the equations of motion.
Enjoy!
Here’s a worksheet/handout for centre of gravity. I’ve also included a video to explain how students can find the centre of mass of irregular shapes.
Enjoy!
15 slides to include tasks (answers displayed upon clicks), summary questions (answers displayed upon clicks), and a practical activity (methods, observation guideline, reflection questions).
This resource has sufficient material for a double lesson.
Pupils will learn:
To explain the difference between mass and weight.
To describe gravity as a non-contact force.
To calculate weight from the equation W=mg.
Understand that objects weigh differently in outer space.
Enjoy!
Here’s a worksheet (and solutions) I’ve used with my 6th form physicists. I’ve also created a video to go along with this. Hopefully, it’ll help you with online teaching!
Here’s another set of circular motion multiple choice questions with answers included.
I’ve also included a video that I created to correct misconceptions about circular motion (angular velocity and tangential speed) that some of my students had. Hope you find it useful, and be sure to subscribe to VTphysics if you like the video!
I’ve included a few exam style questions on harmonics and stationary waves on a string. Answers are also included.
I’ve also included the link to a video I made to explain stationary waves on a string and the calculation of frequencies (harmonics). Hope you enjoy it and, if you do, feel free to subscribe to VTphysics!
