The home of the Virtual Physics Laboratory which offers ideal resources for when laboratory time or expertise is limited. All these resources can be used by the teacher or by students with or without supervision. I started researching and creating these resources many years ago. I usually create the experiment in reality before creating the final version. I have taught at Universities, FE/HE colleges, and at secondary schools and have ran Virtual Science for over 30 years.

Rutherford's Gold Foil - Interactive 3D practical

(0)
This is a student or teacher controlled experiment that shows that the structure of an atom is consistent with having a small, postitively charged nucleus. The user controls the rotation of the particle detector whilst monitoring the number of particles it is detecting. The user is free to move anywhere within the laboratory in order to interact with the apparatus. You can try one of the simulations from our website. Instructions are viewable within the simulation. The simulation is perfect for demonstrating this experiment in front of the class but can also be used by students in a variety of ways: • Directly to prepare for a laboratory experiment by familiarising them with the equipment to be used and the methodology of the experiment. • As revision for an experiment that has previously been performed in the laboratory. • For home-learning where there is no access to a laboratory. • To make up for an experiment missed due to sickness. • As a personal experience of an experiment normally only performed by the teacher in front of the class. Downloads include: a PowerPoint giving full instructions including a video, background on the Physics and the simulation application in a zip file. The Virtual Physics Laboratory of which this simulation is a part, has the Association for Science Education’s Green Tick of Approval. More information can be found on our website. I’ve found your software very useful when a concept comes up with pupils and I have to demonstrate something really quickly without having the time to set up a formal experiment for them. The graphics are great and I really like the ability to move around the classroom and observe the experiment from different aspects. I am far more likely to go to one of your interactive experiments if it’s demonstrating something that we don’t have equipment for. Andrew McPhee Wellington School I thought that the controls were pretty easy to get used to and the detail in the apparatus was excellent being able to zoom in and see the set up of the multi-meter and read scales, being careful of parallax. This type of software is most useful in experiments which can’t be done in the lab like the gravity on the moon or where the equipment is too expensive or difficult to use like the Millikan Oil drop. ​Physics Scholar Coordinator. ​Licence This product is for a single user and is for personal and classroom use only.

Give your students unfettered access to a multitude of Physics practicals with no laboratory required. No breakages, no setup time, always ready to go. This is a student or teacher controlled 3d experiment that allows you to verify Hooke’s Law which states that the amount a substance stretches when a force is applied to it is proportional to the force. When we apply some force an elastic or a steel wire it will stretch and intuitively we are aware that the bigger the force the more it will stretch. We are also aware that some materials stretch more than others. What exactly is the relationship between the force and the amount something stretches for a particular material? That’s the question that we are going to answer with this experiment. The user can control the weight applying a force to the wire. The user is free to move anywhere within the laboratory in order to interact with the apparatus. You can try one of the practicals from our website.

By measuring the voltage induced in the search coilusing an oscilloscope, and varying the angle of the search coil, the relationship between the induced voltage and the angle of the search coil can be established The user has control over the angle of the search coil, the amplitude and frequency of the signal from the signal generator, the various controls of the oscilloscope which include the amplitude sensitivity, the time frame, and the various cursor controls. The user is free to move anywhere within the laboratory in order to interact with the apparatus. You can try one of the practicals from our website. Instructions are included. The package is perfect for demonstrating this experiment in front of the class but can also be used by students in a variety of ways: Directly to prepare for a laboratory experiment by familiarising them with the equipment to be used and the methodology of the experiment. As revision for an experiment that has previously been performed in the laboratory. For home-learning where there is no access to a laboratory. To make up for an experiment missed due to sickness. As a personal experience of an experiment normally only performed by the teacher in front of the class. Downloads comprise a Powerpoint giving full instructions including a video, background on the Physics and a zip file containing the simulation application. The Virtual Physics Laboratory of which this simulation is a part, has the Association for Science Education’s Green Tick of Approval. More information can be found on our website. I’ve found your software very useful when a concept comes up with pupils and I have to demonstrate something really quickly without having the time to set up a formal experiment for them. The graphics are great and I really like the ability to move around the classroom and observe the experiment from different aspects. I am far more likely to go to one of your interactive experiments if it’s demonstrating something that we don’t have equipment for.“ Andrew McPhee Wellington School Licence This product is for a single user and is for personal and classroom use only.

Playing and Improvising Blues Guitar Solo 1

(0)
This unique approach to playing blues guitar will take you bar by bar from the simplest of introductions to a fully-fledged blues solo. Each lesson is composed of 12 bars and usually introduces a new technique that can be used exactly as shown or modified and incorporated into the blues title being learnt. Explanation of the techniques and the music theory behind each phrase are given for each lesson. The various box positions are introduced as encountered in the lessons. Techniques include: bending, pull-offs, sliding, staccato, vibrato and many more in the later solos. Each bar is accompanied by a video showing exactly how the guitar is played and the animated tabulature. At the end of the solo you have the option of playing along with the entire track as the tab scrolls past (see below) or playing over the 12 bar blues backing. There is also introductory material on the guitar, tuning, distortion and damping, amplifiers, intonation, string gauge, the 12-bar blues, and understanding tablature.

Newton’s 2nd Law 3D practical for A level Physics

(0)
Give your students unfettered access to a multitude of Physics practicals with no laboratory required. No breakages, no setup time, always ready to go. This is a student or teacher controlled, realistic 3d experiment that uses an AirTrack to confirm Newton’s second law that force = mass times the acceleration. A pully arrangement is used to allow an adjustable weight to pull the glider along the AirTrack so that it accelerates. By measuring the time the glider takes to pass through two successive photogate timers its acceleration can be calculated. Changing the weight pulling the glider allows for a range of forces and accelerations to be observed. These values can be plotted to confirm the law. The user has control over the air pump, the positions of the photogates and their settings, the weight pulling the glider. The user is free to move anywhere within the laboratory in order to interact with the apparatus. You can try one of the practicals from our website. The package is perfect for demonstrating this experiment in front of the class but can also be used by students in a variety of ways: Directly to prepare for a laboratory experiment by familiarising them with the equipment to be used and the methodology of the experiment.

Give your students unfettered access to a multitude of Physics practicals with no laboratory required. No breakages, no setup time, always ready to go. This is a student or teacher controlled 3d experiment that allows the determination of Young’s modulus for a thin wire. The user can increase the weight stretching the wire and take readings of the resulting stetch of the wire. The user can position themself anywhere within the laboratory in order to take readings. You can try a practical from our website. Instructions are included.

I am far more likely to go to one of your interactive experiments if it’s demonstrating something that we don’t have equipment for.“ Andrew McPhee Wellington School I thought that the controls were pretty easy to get used to and the detail in the apparatus was excellent being able to zoom in and see the set up of the multi-meter and read scales, being careful of parallax. This type of software is most useful in experiments which can’t be done in the lab like the gravity on the moon or where the equipment is too expensive or difficult to use like the Millikan Oil drop."
