Update 18/11/21: Contrast of graph grid lines increased A worksheet to enable students to analyse experimental data from the experiment to investigate the relationship between gas pressure and volume (Boyle’s law). I’ve made a video of the experiment here youtu.be/J9IoAp51_7w . The data collected in the video can be used to complete a table, plot a graph and answer a series of analysis questions in order to empirically determine the relationship between gas pressure and volume. There are links from the PDF directly to the relevant part of the data collection in the video for anyone using the worksheet electronically. There are solutions at the end. Perfect for A-level physics students on any specification. This worksheet is ideal for home learning since it has an accompanying video explanation of the experiment, the analysis of results and solutions to all questions are included in the document.

Copy of the spreadsheet that can be used to analyse gas pressure and volume data to investigate Boyle’s Law. 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.

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. 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 compilation of extended calculation exam questions (calculations worth 3 or more marks). These are questions that prove challenging to many students. The intention of this compilation is to give students focussed practice on these challenging questions. The AS collection covers the modules of first year A-level physics. The A2 collection covers the modules of second year A-level physics. The questions are provided in two separate PDF documents with hyperlinks between individual questions and their mark scheme and the subject headings and their section of the mark scheme for easy electronic navigation. The questions are laid out to make them a great printable resource. UPDATE 24 May 22: Couple of typos / omissions corrected.

Copy of the spreadsheet I used to analyse the experiment to determine the acceleration of free fall in this video. The spreadsheet automatically calculates final velocity of the weighted card from inputted electronic timer readings. The data plots are added to a carefully formatted graph. A line of best fit is automatically plotted. The gradient and y-intercept of the line are automatically calculated from the data plots and the value of acceleration of free fall is calculated from the gradient. This spreadsheet is perfect for rapidly analysing experimental data. 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.
