What are atoms, structure of atoms, charges of sub atomic particles, isotopes, plum pudding model, nuclear model, mass number and atomic number. This resource was designed for AQA GCSE Physics but could be used for any Physics course.

The resource combines a bit of Christmas with the following physics topics; acceleration, vector addition of forces, Newton's third law, air resistance, distance-time graphs, velocity-time graphs, parachutes, resultant forces and Newton's second law.

Refraction, Snell's Law, Refraction Investigation, Structure of human eye, Function of eye parts, Accommodation, Range of Vision, Near Point, Far Point, Myopia, Hypermetropia, Correcting eye defects, Lens Power and equation, and Focal Length of Lens.

Power, Work Done, Gravitational Potential Energy, Kinetic Energy, GPE to KE conversion, Specific Heat Capacity, Home Insulation and Payback Time, and Efficiency.

A series of powerpoint presentations covering the following; The Earth, Seasons, The Moon, Gravity, Solar System, The Night Sky, Scale of the Universe, Space Travel and Changing Ideas

These resources are designed to go with the AQA GCE Physics topic ‘Turning Points in Physics’. The resources cover Crooke’s discharge tubes and JJ Thompson’s hypothesis of the electron. The PPT also covers thermionic emission and introductory mathematics for the determination of specific charge.

BTEC Level 3 National Diploma in Applied Science. Unit 16 Astronomy and Space Science. Learning Aim A3: The features and characteristics of the inner and outer planets of our solar system

BTEC Level 3 National Diploma in Applied Science. Unit 16 Astronomy and Space Science. Learning Aim A4: Features and characteristics of other solar system objects

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.

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.

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.

This resources has been designed to be used with several different GCSE Physics and Combined Science specifications.
