Powerpoint covering the description of images formed by convex and concave lenses. Steps through the ray tracing process for both types of lenses.

Powerpoint covering the content of the first lesson for the Unit 5 Radioactivity topic of the EdExcel GCSE Additional Physics course (P2). Objectives covered include: - structure of the atom - relative size and charges of components of the atom - definition of isotopes (includes a table for students to complete as an activity - answers provided) - comparing the three types of radioactive decay.

Powerpoint covering the content for the second lesson of the EdExcel P2 Unit 5 Radioactivity course. Content includes description of background radiation, description and animation of nuclear fission and diagram explaining how this leads to a chain reaction. Slides also describe the roles of control rods, moderator and coolant in nuclear reactor cores.

Powerpoint for the first lesson in the Particles and Nuclides topic of the new specification AS level physics course. Covers the alpha-scattering experiment and the development of the atomic model.

Test for Capacitors topic including 10 multiple choice questions and 32 marks worth of longer calculation exam-style questions. Cover the whole Capacitors topic and makes a 42 mark test, which should be completed in 55 minutes and therefore ideal for a class-based test. Includes the marking scheme.

Powerpoint for the first lesson in the IB Diploma physics course. Contains 13 slides covering orders of magnitude, fundamental and derived units, homogeneity and dimensional analysis.

Powerpoint covering the year 8 physics topic of Light. There are 38 slides covering how light travels, reflection, refraction, dispersion, how we see colour and how coloured filters work.

Powerpoint covering all the content for the Sound and Hearing topic taught in Year 8. There are 29 slides covering the definition of sound and echoes, animation showing what is meant by longitudinal waves, description of how musical instruments produce sound, graphs to show change in pitch and change in volume, definition of the Decibel, the human hearing range, ultrasound and noise and methods of reducing noise. Structured to be delivered easily within about 5 lessons, allowing time for some related experiments (e.g. tuning forks, signal generator to test hearing range).

Powerpoint covering the content for several lessons of the AQA AS Level Physics Waves topic. Also relevant to the P3 Topic 1 content of GCSE course. The theory covered includes Total Internal Reflection and the significance of the critical angle, the structure of optical fibres and their applications, dispersion problems in optical fibres and how different types overcome those problems.
