ncrumptonncrumpton

GCSE Physics - Work Done lesson plan, presentation and worksheet

(0)
A full lesson plan, presentation, worksheet and answers for students studying GCSE Physics or the Combined Science GCSE. It covers Work Done and gives exemplar calculations. The worksheet has differentiated questions that builds on students knowledge until they are able to rearrange the equation and calculate forces or distances.
GCSE Physics - Free body diagrams and vector diagrams worksheet
ncrumptonncrumpton

GCSE Physics - Free body diagrams and vector diagrams worksheet

(0)
A worksheet aimed at helping students to draw Free Body Diagrams. It also gives them the opportunity to calculate resultant forces and vectors based on information provided. Finally they get to draw vector diagrams to combine vectors to find a resultant. Aimed at GCSE Physics but also suitable for combined science.
Resistance calculations

Specific Heat capacity calculations worksheet

(0)
A worksheet of differentiated calculations for specific heat capacity. Start off getting students to calculate energy and end up with them rearranging the equation to find mass and temperature change. Now with answers!!!
GCSE Physics - Specific Latent Heat of Fusion and Vaporisation Practical Worksheet
ncrumptonncrumpton

GCSE Physics - Specific Latent Heat of Fusion and Vaporisation Practical Worksheet

(0)
A practical worksheet detailing a suitable practical for calculating the Specific Latent Heat of Fusion for ice and the Specific Latent Heat of Vaporisation for water. Included are results tables for the students to complete and circuit diagrams for setting up. The voltmeter/ammeter combination can be replaced by a joulemeter if you have sufficient joulemeters for class practicals. This practical is suitable for AQA GCSE Physics and GCSE Combined Science Triolgy Please see my shop bit.ly/TESncrumpton for further resources on Specific Latent Heat and other physics related topics. Thanks
GCSE Physics - Required Practical 4c Diode

GCSE Physics - Required Practical 4c Diode

(0)
I have reworked the required practical from AQA as using cells did not provide sufficient variability or control for collecting data on a diode. This practical sheet provides detailed instructions of how to set up the circuit and gather the data including how to do this using LEDs instead of a diode.
GCSE Physics - Density calculations
