StrangeStar1StrangeStar1

BTEC U16 - B1: Earth based telescopes: Design and Features

(0)
This presentation supports the delivery of the Level 3 BTEC Unit 16 Astronomy and Space Science. It covers the design of earth based telescopes: refractors and reflectors. The advantages and disadvantages of each. A summary is given of various earth based telescopes in different regions of the electromagnetic spectrum as well as gravity waves.
BTEC: U16 - B2 Space based telescopes
StrangeStar1StrangeStar1

BTEC: U16 - B2 Space based telescopes

(0)
This resources complements the BTEC U16 : Astronomy and space science unit. This presentation describes the main advantages and disadvantages of space based telescopes compared to earth based telescopes. Details of several important space telescopes are given including the region of the e.m. spectrum they observe in as well as key discoveries that each has made.
GCSE Physics - Sharing Voltage
StrangeStar1StrangeStar1

GCSE Physics - Sharing Voltage

(0)
Resistors in Series, using voltmeter in parallel with component, calculate ratios of resistances, calculate voltage across each component, scaffold of calculation, practical investigation and checking ratios and conclusion.
Electronic charge and Millikan's oil drop experiment
StrangeStar1StrangeStar1

Electronic charge and Millikan's oil drop experiment

(0)
This resource is designed for the Turning Points in Physics topic in AQA GCE Physics. It is the second lesson in the series and describes how the specific charge of an electron can be determined in the school laboratory with deflection methods using a fine beam tube. The resource then describes Millikan’s determination of the electron charge with his oil drop experiment.
