Hi crew, I know I’ve shown you some of these VIDEOS before but you should see them again. I cough during the last line of the galaxy song to cover up the swear word, and suggest you do the same. I hope these SPACE resources blow your mind! The Illustracted Galaxy Song- Eric Idle https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I1w76csYYs4&list=RDI1w76csYYs4&start_radio=1...
Read MoreHi crew, Here are the resources for the N5 Dynamics Topic. Let’s start with a couple of song and then a bit of history to get you ready. There’s so much here to help you on your Physics journey. I can’t condone where the guy places his hands in the first video but it is...
Read MoreHere I will add resources that technicians share with each other. First up is the contribution from Avril Morrison on how to reconnect the connectors to the Unilab Power supplies. For all of these it is expected that you follow your Regional H&S policies and get the apparatus PAT tested and only complete this task...
Read MorePractice your Physics using these Wordwalls, don’t forget this forms only PART of your revision. Sorry I don’t know why some of these wont embed, I’ve had to post them as links. I hope you can still get to play.
Read MoreThese questions will be great for student self study. Beware I will need to edit some of them later as there are some things that are out of date. eg Q= quality factor, now called Radiation weighting factor H = dose equivalent now called equivalent dose.
Read MoreHere are some videos and powerpoint shows that I’ve made for the NPA but the outcomes are the same as those in N5 Physics. Thanks to John Sharkey for the use of the Virtual Flash Physics (Int 2) and to Julian Hamm of furryelephant for the animations of ionising an atom. Videos If you haven’t...
Read MoreUsing John Sharkey's Virtual Animations I complete the Half Life of Protactinium 234. The sound needs to be turned down after the first 60 s
Read MoreI hope that I am not breaking any rules, but these great resources no longer appear to be online. Can’t believe they are 20 years old! The first photos show the background count rate, a reading of counts taken over a 1 minute period. The source is then taken out at 9:00 am and a...
Read MoreWeek 2: Significant Figures You will need to be able to use and understand significant figures in N5 Physics. Don’t worry if you don’t get it straight away, we’ve almost a year to get it right. The video I’ve found is clearer than I could do and sorry it is a bit long, but well...
Read MoreWatch the video below on significant figures. Figure 1: The red and brown is called a counting stick and can only measure to 10 cm. Figure 2: The top part of this metre stick can read to the nearest 1 cm, the bottom to the nearest mm. When Physicist use numbers it is usually because...
