CONCISE A* NOTES AQA Properties of Materials
This revision note includes the whole specification that is needed for this materials topic.
Easy to learn, bullet point revision notes
Covers every point on the current AQA specification
Spec as follow:
• Density
• Hooke’s law, elastic limit
• Stiffness and spring constant
• Tensile strain and tensile stress
• Elastic strain energy, breaking stress
• Energy stored, area under graph
Description of plastic behaviour, fracture and brittle behaviour linked to force -extension graphs.
Quantitative and qualitative application of energy conservation, examples involving elastic strain energy.
Energy transfers- spring energy, gravitational, and potential energy
Interpretation of simple stress -strain curves
