Hi S3 and S4 physicists. Here is a movie on how to work out wavelengths.

Now try the practice worksheet. Click here to download.

My Higher Physics students explored electric fields today.
Most important fact is that an electric field is a region in space where charged particles like electrons or protons experience a force.
The Electric field can be visualised with arrows. The direction of which tells you the direction a small positive charged particle would experience the electric force.
Try this fascinating PhET Simulation called Electric field hockey.

A super time lapse film of the International Space Station as it flies over the planet.
Look out for the aurora. These are the green bands on the edge of the Earth. You can also see lightning storms and big cities lit up at night.
What a joy to see.

Hi physics lovers! Here is the brilliant PhET simulation which is exactly what we were studying this week in both Intermediate 2 and Standard Grade physics.
Run the simulation like the real loop in lab and study the graph of potential energy and kinetic energy with and without friction.

Hi physics lovers. Check my video of the swinging mass. See! I trust in my physics and I`ve still got my teeth.

Hi physics lovers! here is a wonderful skate park physics simulation from those wonderful people at the PhET Simulations

Click on the picture below to run the simulation or better still download the simulation from here

My S3 physicists used the Optoelectronic College`s resource to find out which material could be used for a telecommunication company`s new broadband cables.
Our results are below… enjoy.

Here is an excellent simulation on landing the Lunar Module. You need to know about forces diagrams. it also helps you to understand unbalanced forces. Go on! Click the image and try out the game.
