Here’s a collection of multiple choice questions (with answers) for Radioactivity, suitable for GCSE key stage 4 level science (physics). They are a mixture of exam-style MC questions and exam-style questions that I have modified into MC questions. I can easily upload these worksheets online and ask my students to either highlight their answers or type their answers into a word document. I’ve separated the MC questions into sections so that you can use them as worksheets or homework. There are 11 sections in total: structure of atoms isotopes stability alpha decay beta decay gamma radiation penetration power half-life dangers and application of radiation fusion/fission nuclear reactors

Hooke’s Law KS4 Science Physics / KS5 Recap for the topic of materials in physics L.O. To investigate how force is related to extension of a material by Hooke’s Law. To calculate the force required to extend a spring. To calculate the elastic potential energy stored in a spring. The Powerpoint presentation includes 17 slides. They contain theory, tasks, practical experiment, and questions with solutions. Some texts and images are animated, such that they appear upon click. There is a handout to go along with the practical of investigation Hooke’s law (stretching a spring using slot masses and measuring its extension.) A worksheet is included. I’ve used this sheet as homework, but you can also use it as classwork. Enjoy!

The Earth - The Earth and its Atmosphere (Key stage 3) L.O. To compare the layers of the Earth and to describe the atmospheric composition. Contains a multiple choice pre-test great for introduction for this unit.

Resources (including questions) for pupils learning momentum and conservation of momentum.

Use this revision mat for revision of ks4 topics in forces and motion. The powerpoint is more of an aid - the main activity is the revision mat.

This powerpoint consists of 10 slides (around 1 to 1.5 hours of work for students), including step-by-step instruction for a practical. Learning objectives covered: Describe the Earth’s magnetic field. Describe the magnetic effect of a current. The practical activity is for pupils to build an electromagnet using an iron nail and power pack. Pupils test factors that affect the strength of the magnetic field strength. Summary questions and answers (appear on click) are included in the slides. Be sure to check out the bundle for more resources on magnetism. Enjoy!

This set of powerpoint presentations consists of 25 slides (around 1.5 to 2 hours of work for students). Students will learn to explain why the pressure in a liquid varies with depth and density. Afterwards, they will progress onto learning the physics of floating and sinking objects, and the factors that influence it. Enjoy!

11 question booklets with mark schemes I have organised questions (mostly exam style questions) by the topics in forces and motion. They come with mark schemes. Here are the topics: Speed, distance, and time Distance-time graphs Velocity and acceleration Velocity-time graphs Tangent on distance-time graphs Equations of motion Types of forces Scalars and vectors Resultant forces Newton’s second law Mass and weight

GCSE physics worksheet/handout on types of forces. Teacher’s copy of the handout includes complete notes and answers to questions. I have included both the PDF and DOC version of the same handout for your ease of use. Learning objective: Define and identify different types of forces. Be sure to check out my bundles section for huge savings! Happy teaching!

GCSE physics worksheet/handout on Mass and weight. Teacher’s copy of the handout includes complete notes and answers to questions. I have included both the PDF and DOC version of the same handout for your ease of use. Learning objective: Recall that the weight of a body is the force exerted on it because of gravity. Recall that gravitational field strength is the force exerted on a unit of mass. Recall and use the equation relating weight, mass, and gravitational field strength.

I’ve used these resources with my students for the teaching of “solids, liquids and gases” or also known as “states of matter” for GCSE physics. They lasted for more than 7 lessons (45min each period), which will differ depending on your set’s ability and the duration of each period. I’ve tried to include as much detail as possible in the teaching notes. I’ve included answers to all the questions and tasks in these resources. Enjoy! This resource bundle includes: 1 powerpoint presentation (16 slides) 7 class handouts / worksheets 7 teaching notes for class handouts / worksheets 7 homework assignments 7 homework assignment mark schemes Topics State of matter - solids, liquids, gases, changing states Specific heat capacity - calculation of SHC Latent heat - temperature and changing states, cooling curve Temperature - conversion between Kelvin and Celsius Molecular kinetic theory - Brownian motion Pressure and volume - Boyle’s law Pressure and temperature - Gay-Lussac’s law

Here’s a game of Articulate for physics revision. I’ve included different coloured decks so that you can put students into different teams. There’s also a key definition sheet. I usually give my students the key definition sheet ahead of time, either for homework or in class (5 to 10 minutes), so that they can memorise the definitions in preparation for the game.

Topic: Forces in balance: Resolving forces practical 1. Measure and record a component of a force. 2. Resolve a force into two components at right angles to one another. Level: GCSE, key stage 4 I am following the AQA science (physics) syllabus but this resource is suitable for anyone teaching KS3 or KS4 science (specifically physics). Hope this resource is helpful for you. Please do let me know if there's any suggestions for improvement. I aim to upload more lessons following this topic. Check out some bundles I've put together.

Here’s a worksheet for projectile motion in A Level physics. I’ve also included a video that explains the graphs of motion for an object thrown upwards and experiences free fall.

Here’s a handout that I give my physics students for when we learn about the difference between stationary waves and progressive waves. I’ve also included two videos to go along with this: Video to explain the theory Video to show you how to carry out an experiment to find the speed of light using the idea of nodes and anti-nodes in standing waves - I had a lot of fun doing this!
