iGCSE - Total Internal Reflection This lesson covers the refraction of light and the calculation of refractive index as applied to the phenomenon of total internal reflection. This lesson also demonstrates the experiment that can be performed, step-by-step with animation.

This is a 7 slide PowerPoint that covers BTec National Engineering (A-Level equivalent) on the topic of Tensile and Compressive forces which create stress and strain. This then goes on to explain how this relates to the Modulus of Elasticity (Young Modulus). Three question sheets are included complete with worked answers. This is the first of three PowerPoints in this series and covers the mathematical and physics for an analysis of Stress and Strain in Engineering materials v1.1 - PDF question sheets and worked answers added to resource v1.11 - Two more sets of questions and answers added to resource; minor improvements to ppt also made v1.12 - Error on the answer sheet corrected v1.13 - Jan 2023 Error on Powerpoint corrected

This is the first of three lessons that introduce the idea of logarithms The PowerPoint takes students through the difficulties in graphing data of wide ranging numbers and then, using the E-M spectrum and H-R diagrams, shows how log-log graphs can be used to display this data. This is part of the essential mathematics skills needed for A-Level Physics

This is lesson 9.5 Explosions from the latest syllabus and linked to the latest Oxford book (2015) Included here is a PowerPoint of this lesson and lesson plan complete with point by point teaching, homework recommendations and curriculum link; everything that you need to teach this lesson. All of Chapter one is free to sample. I am bundling every chapter of the Year 1 and Year 2 course to make them cheaper.

This is a 12 slide PowerPoint that covers BTec National Engineering (A-Level equivalent) on the topic of Efficiency and Mechanical Advantage as applied to lifting machines in engineering. This is the seventh PowerPoint in this section which covers Mechanical Advantage and Velocity Ratio in ideal systems and then applies this to non-perfect scenarios so that efficiency can be calculated. The lifting machine of a block being pushed up a slope is used throughout this PowerPoint to cover this topic in an easy to understand manner. This is extended to more complex listing machines in the next PowerPoint in the series.

This is a 15 slide PowerPoint that covers BTec National Engineering (A-Level equivalent) on the topic of Lifting Machines which includes The Inclined Plane, Pulleys, Screw Jacks and Scissor Mechanisms. This is the eighth and final PowerPoint in this section which covers each of these main lifting mechanisms and includes worked example calculations for each example.

This is a 6 slide PowerPoint that covers BTec National Engineering (A-Level equivalent) on the topic of Capacitors in both series and parallel circuits. This PowerPoint includes circuit diagrams and worked examples of the capacitance, current and voltage calculations needed for basic circuits. This is an extension from the earlier lesson where capacitance and capacitors were introduced in detail. This is the sixth PowerPoint in this section (Electricity and circuits).

This PowerPoint lesson on Transformers covers the application of induction to the construction of AC transformers. The mathematics and formulae for both power and voltage across transformers is covered, together with a worked example. There is also a comprehensive set of questions and answers. This is the final (of 8) lessons in this section entitled “Magnetism and Electromagnetism” which is available as a bundle in our shop. v1.1 Question worksheet added complete with answers

This PowerPoint lesson on Stellar Evolution covers the development of a star through its entire life. This powerpoint includes the iGCSE details linking surface temperature to the colour of star and the ultimate ending paths of stars depending on their mass. A poster / flow chart activity idea is also included. This is the third (of 6) lessons in this section entitled “Astrophysics” which is available as a bundle in our shop.

iGCSE Physics PowerPoint that covers the topic of thermal radiation. This 14 page powerpoint explains how thermal radiation (infrared) is absorbed and emitted from different surfaces. Two experiments are explained in detail as well as the results from the Leslie cube demonstration including a FLIR photo. A vacuum flask diagram is also explained and links back to the previous lesson on conduction and convection. Common misconceptions are also highlighted. This is the third of 6 topics in this units of work and is aimed at covering approximately 2-3 hours of teaching, including the experiments.

This is a 15 slide PowerPoint that covers BTec National Engineering (A-Level equivalent) on the topic of calculating an Equilibrant plus a worksheet and answers. This covers the mathematical and physics which builds on vector diagrams and includes a 7 slide animated worked example of how to calculate the equilibrant for a system of 3 non-concurrent forces; this covers vector and moment calculations in the system. This PowerPoint forms Lesson 2 in this series
