This is a lesson and PowerPoint that covers Cathode Rays (including discharge tubes and the Maltese Cross Experiment) and should be supported with two recommended demonstrations and is a list of scientists that could be researched as a homework task. There is also a worksheet of questions and an answer sheet. As well as supporting A-Level Physics for many exam boards this lesson is also part of a chapter that covers the optional Turning Points in Physics unit 9 for AQA (Lesson 1 of 13) Please see my shop to view all of my lessons and entire schemes of work

This is a lesson and PowerPoint that covers how to calculate the specific charge of an electron (including both the balanced forces technique and the fine beam method) and should be supported with two recommended demonstrations. There is also an additional supporting document to explain how to correctly set up Helmholtz coils and how to calculate the flux density between them. The lesson gives ideas for homework, three example questions with work-through answers and gives ideas for experiments linked to the subject (J.J. Thomson’s original experiment plus the fine beam method) As well as supporting A-Level Physics for many exam boards this lesson is also part of a chapter that covers the optional Turning Points in Physics unit 9 for AQA (Lesson 3 of 13) Please see my shop to view all of my lessons and entire schemes of work

This is a detailed lesson and PowerPoint introducing the change of state of matter. This is the fourth lesson in the Particle Model unit of work (P3). The lesson covers the theories of solids, liquids and gases and the changes of state between them including a practical idea, conservation of mass and the difference between physics and chemical changes. The lesson plan is step by step including extension ideas and the learning objectives linked directly to the syllabus.

This is a lesson and PowerPoint that covers resolution of telescopes, Rayleigh criterion, calculating the maximum resolution for any aperture and links to the use of non-optical telescopes. Included is a short experiment idea to discover the resolution of the human eye. As well as supporting A-Level Physics for many exam boards this lesson is also part of a chapter that covers the optional astrophysics unit 9 for AQA

GCSE Science / Physics - Nuclear Fission (PowerPoint and Lesson Plan) This is a detailed lesson and PowerPoint explaining nuclear fission. This is the twelfth lesson in the Atomic Structure unit of work (P4). The lesson covers the basic idea of splitting the atomic nucleus from neutron capture and expressing this as a diagram and nuclear equation. Chain reactions, nuclear bombs and nuclear power are also used to discuss fission in context. The good and bad aspects of fission are used to stimulate a discussion with a differentiated task list for pupils to then create work of their own on the topic. There is a detailed lesson plan with notes on teaching this topic as well as ideas to assist the teacher in differentiating the lesson and setting homework; a PowerPoint also supports the lesson. Updated March 2017 (Corrected mass numbers on fission diagram)

This is a detailed lesson and PowerPoint explaining Boyle’s Law. This is the ninth lesson in the Particle Model unit of work (P3). The lesson covers the effect of changing volume of a gas at constant temperature (Boyle’s Law), defines the formula, explains pascals and also contains a step by step example question. The lesson plan is step by step including extension ideas and the learning objectives linked directly to the syllabus.

This is a 17 slide PowerPoint and a worksheet of questions that covers BTec National Engineering (A-Level equivalent) on the topic of Rotational Motion. This is the fifth PowerPoint in this section which covers an introduction to circular mathematics and applies this to rotational engineering. This includes Angular Displacement, Radians, Angular Velocity, Angular Displacement, Tangential Velcoity, Centripetal Acceleration, and Torque.

This is an 15 slide PowerPoint that covers BTec National Engineering (A-Level equivalent) on the topic of combining sinusoidal waveforms. This lessons starts with a graphical representation of waveforms for AC voltage, and shows how a resultant wave is formed from two sinusoidal waveforms. This is then extended to a graphical solution method, using vectors for phasors, and then a mathematical method using the cosine and sine rules to add two wave equations together. This is the second PowerPoint in this section (Single phase alternating current). v1.01 (Dec 2021 ) - Minor improvements

This PowerPoint goes through the mathematics needed to calculate Kinetic, Work Done and Gravitational Potential Energy. It builds on and reviews velocity calculations. There are two versions of a step-by-step object on a slope experiment which will enable pupils to test the equating of the formulae for Kinetic energy and Work Done and utilise this for calculating braking forces due to friction.

This is a 13 slide PowerPoint that covers BTec National Engineering (A-Level equivalent) on the topics of Vectors and Phasors. It covers an introduction to vectors, resolving vectors into components (using trigonometry), finding the sum of vectors in 2 dimensions (using trigonometry and Pythagoras’ theorem), introduction to phasors and the sinusoidal formula including phase-difference. A knowledge of trigonometry (see previous lessons in this series) is needed. This is the tenth PowerPoint in this section (Mathematical methods).

This is a detailed lesson and PowerPoint introducing the Particle Model of Matter. This is the first lesson in the Particle Model unit of work (P3). The lesson covers the theories of solids, liquids and gases; the particle diagrams for them and a qualitative assessment of density in the three states of matter. The lesson plan is step by step including extension ideas and the learning objectives linked directly to the syllabus.

This is the first of three lessons that introduce the idea of logarithms The PowerPoint takes students through the difficulties in graphing data of wide ranging numbers and then, using the E-M spectrum and H-R diagrams, shows how log-log graphs can be used to display this data. This is part of the essential mathematics skills needed for A-Level Physics
