I'm an A-Level physics teacher. In my opinion independent learning is the key to success so I focus a lot of effort into making resources to help students learn physics independently. A lot of what I make is available for free on YouTube. My website has links to everything.
I'm starting to offer my free downloads on https://wonkylogic.co/a-level-physics-hq which does not require a log in to download.

Copy of the spreadsheet that can be used to analyse the heat capacity experiment in this video.
This is a Numbers spreadsheet. It is possible to convert Numbers spreadsheets to Excel files but I cannot guarantee an easy to use output since the tables may be converted to separate worksheets in the Excel file.
Suitable for most A-level physics specifications.
A poster illustrating the principal bodies of our Solar System. The Sun is shown with the planets in their respective orbits around it. Data is given on the Sun and each planet including: mass, diameter and mean orbit radius around the Sun. Two additional graphics show the orbits to relative scale and the Sun and planet diameters to relative scale.
Suitable for A-Level physics specifications:
AQA and OCR Physics A AS-Level and A-Level specifications.

Revise the key concepts of the photoelectric effect with these two sorting activities. Activity 1 reinforces the relationship between colour, wavelength and photon energy for visible photons. Activity 2 extends activity 1 by introducing differences in intensity.
Included in this bundle are:
Sorting cards for both activities (PDF files). On page two are optional header columns to help students structure their solutions.
Presentation files for teachers to project the correct solutions to the class (a Keynote file for Mac/iOS users and PowerPoint file for Windows users).

Differentiated activity for practicing drawing curved graphs. There are four curves to plot and draw, which includes choosing the scale on the y-axis. The four graphs are gas pressure and volume, gravitational field strength, radioactive activity and capacitor charging.
The first two pages include the activity for students to complete, the third and fourth pages are the same activity but designed for more able students to complete, the final two pages are the solutions.
Suitable for AQA and OCR Physics A AS-Level and A-Level specifications.

This is part of a series of worksheets for practicing different graph skills. If you prefer, you can purchase this in a bundle of Graph Skills worksheets 1-6 here (at a discount): https://gum.co/KBWAH
This worksheet is ideal for home learning since it has solutions to all questions included in the document, it is part of a series that gradually builds up a range of graphing techniques and it includes an extension version of the tasks to challenge more able students.
Copy of the spreadsheet I used to analyse the Young’s Modulus experiment in my video on the experiment.
Now included: a version 2 of the spreadsheet with improved formatting. But note that in order to achieve the neater formatting it is necessary to use more advanced formulae which will make it harder for spreadsheet novices to understand the calculations (especially around indices). Both versions are included to give the user the option of which one to use.

Activity for practicing plotting graph data points on log graphs, drawing a line of best fit, calculating a gradient and analysing the line in order to calculate quantities. There are two log graphs to plot and analyse. The first data set is from the oscillations of a mass-spring system and requires a log base 10 graph. The second data set is from capacitors in series and requires a natural log graph.
Suitable for AQA and OCR Physics A AS-Level and A-Level specifications.

14 September 2024: It was brought to my attention that the data provided an invalid intercept value for analysis if imported into a spreadsheet to compute. I realised that two values for s suffered from typos (u=12 had s=35 and u=14 had s=42). These data give a negative intercept preventing correct analysis. The values have been corrected (u=12 had s=34 and u=14 had s=43). This affected the values in the tables, however, the values plotted on the grid were correct.
