This is a lesson I used myself to teach the Gravitational potential concept of the Fields Unit - A level Physics, AQA specification.
Learning objective: To calculate and interpret changes in gravitational potential and gravitational potential energy in radial gravitational fields.
By the end of the lesson learners should be able to:
Success criteria:
SC1: State why gravitational potential is always negative and how it is defined relative to infinity.
SC2: Calculate gravitational potential and potential energy changes using appropriate equations.
SC3: Explain how equipotential lines relate to gravitational field strength and energy changes.
