A collection of key points to remember for M1 Mechanics AS Maths/Further Maths. Prevents against silly mistakes and allows students to reach top marks! Possible mistakes collected from the questions and mark schemes from 20+ past papers. Relevant to M1 content: > Motion graphs > Velocity and acceleration > Displacement / position / distance > Distance and speed and time > Differentiation/integration > Bearings and angles > Unit vectors > Normal reaction > Free motion > Cartesian equations > Terminology - smooth, light, inextensible etc > Projectiles > Particles colliding > Force diagrams > Triangles of forces > Resolving forces Information divided into clear headings. Recommended for A-Level Maths students taking M1, especially relevant for OCR MEI exam board. An invaluable collection of points to have before an exam.

These comprehensive notes and examples cover the Further Mechanics 1 (FM1) unit of the Edexcel new A Level Maths specification. Student booklets are provided for each topic in both Word and PDF formats. There are also teacher booklets for each topic containing detailed worked solutions. The chapter titles are Momentum and Impulse, Work, Energy and Power, Elastics Springs and Strings, Elastic Collisions in 1 Dimension, Elastic Collisions in 2 Dimensions. Also available: Edexcel Further Core Pure notes and examples for the new specification (years 1 and 2): https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/edexcel-further-core-pure-as-11890483 https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/edexcel-further-maths-year-2-core-pure-11931638 Further Statistics 1 (FS1) notes and examples for the new specification: https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/edexcel-further-statistics-1-new-spec-12080991

Car pile up scenario. Pupils have to calculate the momentum of each vehicle, followed by the change in momentum, to calculate impact force. Finally, they have to use the numbers to conclude which driver would have come out worse off. Answers provided.

An introduction to the concept of momentum with formula and examples to fill in

This worksheet contains nearly 50 questions on collisions of objects - ideal practice for students preparing to sit their Mechanics 1 module exams. It has an introductory section which explains the conservation of momentum principle, then there are 18 questions with "before and after" diagrams to help students solve them. The remaining 29 questions are more demanding and typical of examination questions. Answers to all questions are provided.

I use this worksheet to introduce momentum and impulse, and to get students to practise working out the change in momentum of an object using mv-mu. After the introductory explanation there are 9 questions for student to attempt - all answers are included. Other Mechanics 1 resources are available - please go to my shop and search for them.

Here is my attempt to structure questions for the new FM1 module. For use by giving to pupils and leaving them to it, or working through topics as a class. I have included Practice, specimen and sample assessment material to support the limited amount of new papers. I have also attached older questions from the old specification for more edexcel exam style question practice. If you like it, please share and give 5* :). Also works extremely well on iPads.

lesson presentations for all topics of unit C3 A level Mathematics. All powerpoints include in-depth information and diagrams with lesson activities.

Lesson 1 on momentum

Mechanics module notes for someone looking for all the knowledge required to pass this unit.

Presentations that show students how to use conservation of momentum and coefficient of restitution to solve both 1 Dimensional and 2 Dimensional problems. Also included is a presentation about impulse SMART Notebook Express presentations can be used for free by using SMART online or by downloading SMART software, also free, I use it because it allows a more interactive presentation than a powerpoint. Just search 'SMART Notebook Express' and try it with my free SMART resource.

A great plenary or starter task which involves students filling in the gaps with the key information from your lesson. Students work in pairs to complete the task. Once done, pairs can present back to the rest of the class. The file is in Word format and consists of one A4 page to make photocopying easier. If you laminate the sheet, this could be used again and again. A wonderful opportunity for Cross Curricular work with English and Drama. This will make for a very memorable end to your lesson!

This is a checklist for all the mechanics topics from the first year and second year of the A-Level Maths 2017 Spec for Edexcel and AQA Topics covered such as: ‘Moments’ ‘Forces and Friction’ ‘Vectors’ ‘SUVAT’ ‘Projectiles and motion’ There are also checklists available for First year topics: https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/a-level-maths-2017-as-topics-checklist-12055407 Full A-Level (1st and 2nd Year): https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/a-level-maths-2017-full-checklist-12058319 A Level Statistics topics: https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/a-level-maths-2017-statistics-topics-checklist-12055719

The product contains a set of Mechanics (M1) Extension Worksheets from Edexcel AL Specification for the gifted learners. The worksheets contain topic based questions from the following topics. + Kinematics (questions involving more than one object; SUVAT formulae) + Connected particles (problems in which the motion changes, problems involving double wedges, problems involving lifts, pulley attached at two ends of a table, problems involving a helicopter) + Momentum and Impulse (Gun firing a bullet, Impulsive tension) + Moment of a force (Equilibrium under parallel forces) Suitable for all Examination Boards, teachers can use these worksheets to discover the potential of talented and gifted learners and push them to reach for an A/A* grade in Mechanics (M1) paper and get further practice. Answer keys are included for each worksheet.

This 19 slide PowerPoint presentation covers the content required for the A-Level mathematics topic “Elastic Collisions in Two Dimensions”. I developed it in order to teach the topic to my students. The content is based on the Edexcel FM1 specification, and chapter 5 of the Edexcel FM1 textbook. I have included extensive teacher notes with each slide. I have extensively used PowerPoint’s animation effects. All slides use the “appear” animation to build up the content in a clear, meaningful manner. I also used the “zoom”, “free motion” and “fade” animations to animate the collisions. This, I think, brings the material to life. The slides contain all the required theory, and detailed, worked examples for each of the three sections: Oblique Impacts with a Fixed Surface Successive Oblique Impacts Oblique Impacts of Smooth Spheres Most examples are either fully original or extensively adapted/ modified from examples within the Edexcel textbook. I have provided two free previews that you can download separately. The first is an editable PowerPoint presentation containing an example of two spheres colliding, and concludes with an animation of the collision. The second is a PowerPoint slideshow containing an example of a sphere colliding with a fixed surface. This example guides students through the use of the vector dot product. I hope you find the PowerPoint very useful in your teaching practice. Please feel free to contact me if you have any feedback. Regards Gerard
