Hi Physics lovers!
Use the simulation above to find the frequency of the passing waves.
Press the UP Green arrow to start the wave motion. Pressing it again increases the wave speed while pressing the down arrow will reduce the speed.
If the waves run out just press the pause button and then the RESET button.
Hi physics lovers here is your nasty nine health test you got today with answers.
Look over the questions and check the answers.
Hi physics lovers!

Hi Physics lovers,
Here are a few links on this wonderful topic:
This video is a recap on what happened in the lab this afternoon when Mr. McKenna, the technician, demoed the electroscope discharging when UV light was shone on the zinc plate on top of the electroscope.

Run the above simulation and find out the minimum wavelength of light needed to eject electrons from different metals
Hi physics lovers here is your Nasty Nine Health Test.
Go through the slides and record your answer on the paper grid then click the link below the slides to record your answers
This is a fantastic piece of simulation software from PhET which allows you to build electric circuits and study what happens when you change resistance or voltage.
Download the simulation by clicking on the picture.

To get you started why don`t you build this circuit
Investigate:
Have some fun building more circuits and investigating the the current, voltage and resistance of the circuit.

My fellow physics teacher Mr Mackenzie from Thurso has produced a wonderful little movie summarizing what we talked about last day in physics, namely Total internal reflection.
I will let Mr Mackenzie explain:
