Electromagnetic Waves Spectrum

(0)
Complete No-Prep lesson with exam questions, tasks and answers on Electromagnetic Waves / Spectrum for AQA GCSE (9-1) Science / Physics. This lesson covers all of AQA GCSE Combined Science 6.2.2.1 / GCSE Physics 4.6.2.1. As a Secondary Science teacher, Deputy Headteacher, writer and examiner for many years I make high quality no-prep lessons so busy teachers can teach outstanding lessons without spending hours planning. This high quality lesson includes explanations, different types of in-lesson assessment (all with answers) and unique exam questions. My lessons are ideal for non-Physicists - as a Biologist who retrained as a Physics teacher I know how to take learners on a journey that builds up their understanding step by step, while still going into a lot of depth. The preview video shows a representative sample of slides from the resource so that you get a good idea of what it includes before you buy. What’s Included: • Teaching notes • Starter / Do Now Activity • Explanation slides in “chunked” sections with animated diagrams. • Worked examples of calculations / questions. • Multiple questions in different question styles and difficulties - no need for worksheets. Each “chunked” explanation section typically includes a set of “learning check / quick questions” followed by a set of in-depth questions on the learning from that “chunk” of the lesson. All questions have answers. • Exam-style questions on the whole lesson at the end of the lesson- these are unique, based on real exam questions but not just copied from exam boards. • Answers for all questions • All easily editable to adapt to your teaching or to use in existing lessons. • Slightly humorous, at points, if you like that sort of thing. Learning objectives: Describe electromagnetic waves as transverse waves and give examples that show how they transfer energy from a source to an absorber. Describe the speed of electromagnetic waves and use the wave speed equation to explain the relationship between wavelength and frequency. Describe the continuous electromagnetic spectrum, including the patterns in wavelength, frequency and energy. The lesson was written for AQA GCSE Science / Physics but is very likely to be applicable to other exam specifications. Please leave a rating / review and all other feedback gratefully received!

Complete No-Prep lesson with exam questions, tasks and answers on Wave Speed (including measuring the speed of sound) and the wave equation (including the ripple tank and vibrating string required practicals) for AQA GCSE (9-1) Science / Physics. I have split AQA GCSE Physics 4.6.1.2 / Combined Science 6.6.1.2 over two lessons because to teach it fully requires more than one lesson. This is part two and covers the parts of AQA GCSE Physics 4.6.1.2 / Combined Science 6.6.1.2 relating to wave speed, measuring the speed of sound, the wave equation and preparation and understanding of the required practicals. All other aspects of 4.6.1.2 / 6.6.1.2 (i.e. wavelength, amplitude, frequency and period) are covered in the previous lesson except for: *“(Physics only) students should be able to show how changes in velocity, frequency and wavelength, in transmission of sound waves from one medium to another, are inter-related”. As that particular exam spec point relates to sound, and is for GCSE Physics students only, I have included it in the lesson on Sound which is also for GCSE Physics only.

What is This Resource About? This PowerPoint supports AQA GCSE Physics students in completing the required practical for measuring wave speed. It explains how to measure wave speed in different media, how to apply the wave equation, and how to analyze experimental errors to improve accuracy. What’s Included? Measuring wave speed in a solid (vibrating string method) Step-by-step practical setup and method. Explanation of how frequency, wavelength, and tension affect wave speed. Example results table and calculation of mean wave speed. Discussion on why wave speed varies and how to improve accuracy. Measuring wave speed in water (ripple tank method): How to create and observe waves using a signal generator and ripple tank. How to measure frequency (counting waves over time) and wavelength (using a meter ruler). Example calculations. Sources of error and improvements. The relationship between frequency, wavelength, and wave speed: Explains why changing frequency does not change wave speed in the same medium. Examines factors that do change wave speed (e.g., water depth, string tension). Review questions: Calculating wave speed from given data. Explaining experimental errors and suggesting improvements. Why Use This Resource? Aligned with AQA GCSE Physics required practicals. Fully editable PowerPoint (.pptx) for classroom use. Clear explanations, structured lessons, and practical guidance. Supports practical work, scientific analysis, and evaluation skills. Includes practice questions and activities to reinforce key concepts. Last updated: February 2025. This PowerPoint is ideal for teachers, tutors, and students looking for a comprehensive, curriculum-aligned resource on measuring wave speed in solids and liquids.

Revision Waves and Standing Waves A-level Physics

This is a revision resource for independent study for Year 12 and 13 A-level Physics students It consists of the chunk of specification relevant to waves (from Edexcel), a list of tasks to help learn the content, including links to online questions and then a range of exam questions with the relevant mark schemes I had the idea of making these “weekly wonder” revision resources for my year 13’s who were struggling to break down the whole specification into manageable chunks in order to get started. I have broken the Edexcel course down into 20 “chunks” and this is one section - waves and stationary waves - so designed for students to spend 2-4 hours on over a week as part of their personal study.
