In this learning episode, from the Institute of Physics, students derive the equation relating electromotive force (emf), terminal potential difference, current and internal resistance. They then tackle questions about the internal resistance of a power supply.
...This demonstration or student practical activity, from the Institute of Physics, helps students learn to use an oscilloscope to measure voltages. It helps students to understand the use of a cathode ray oscilloscope by showing:
• how the oscilloscope plots a graph...
Produced by the Institute of Physics, this learning episode helps students to distinguish alternating from direct currents before revising why alternating current (ac) is so important.
The range of activities include...
In this series of learning episodes from the Institute of Physics, students undertake a range of practical investigations into capacitors and their properties. Students apply exponential equations, which can help to reinforce other areas such as radioactive decay.
The topics covered are:
Episode 125...
In this learning episode from the Institute of Physics, students are introduced to capacitors. Through practical investigations, students look at their charge and discharge process.
The activities include:
•...
This learning episode, from the Institute of Physics, helps students understand how capacitors charge and the concept of capacitance. Students investigate the relationship between charge and potential difference across a capacitor.
...In this learning episode, from the Institute of Physics, students derive formulae for capacitors in series and parallel to reinforce their understanding of circuits involving capacitors.
The activities in this...
Produced by the Institute of Physics, this learning episode looks at the energy stored in a capacitor. Students undertake a practical investigation to look at the energy stored and how this varies with potential difference and capacitance.
...In this learning episode from the Institute of Physics, students investigate and characterise the exponential discharge of a capacitor.
Activities include:
• looking at exponential discharge
•...
From the Institute of Physics, this learning episode looks at energy stored in capacitors and springs as well as the comparison between radioactive decay and a capacitor's discharge. It allows students to explore the concepts of energy storage and exponential decrease...
From the Institute of Physics, this topic builds up an understanding of the conditions needed for an object to be in equilibrium. The first episode develops ideas about vector and scalar quantities; these are equally relevant to quantities other than forces. The learning episodes in this topic include:
...
In this learning episode, from the Institute of Physics, students discuss, examine and enhance their understanding of scalars and vectors. For some students this will be a revision session whilst others may be less familiar with the concepts. The topics examined include: * defining scalar and vector quantities *...
Produced by the Institute of Physics, this learning episode contains demonstrations and practical activities through which students learn about the conditions for static equilibrium (excluding moments of forces).
Students look at:
• forces on a horizontal washing line with a weight in the middle...
This learning episode from the Institute of Physics, uses discussion and experimental work to help students investigate the application of moments beyond the simple 'see-saw' model.
Activities lead to an application of moments to general equilibrium situations.
Students look at:
* moments and...
In this topic, from the Institute of Physics, students learn to describe motion in terms of displacement, velocity, acceleration and time. There is only a limited discussion of the forces involved as kinematics is concerned with describing motion, while dynamics is concerned with explaining motion in terms of the...
