OCR A Level Physics Particles and Medical Physics

A comprehensive OCR A Level Physics Particles and Medical Physics revision PowerPoint designed for classroom teaching, intervention, retrieval practice and exam preparation.

Each major topic begins with Do Now (DNA) retrieval questions followed by a separate answer slide for immediate feedback and correction. Key knowledge is presented using a Cornell note-taking structure with Cues/Questions, Main Notes and Summary sections to support understanding, organisation and long-term retention.

After each key point, students complete three short-answer whiteboard questions testing knowledge, understanding and common misconceptions. Answers are provided for rapid assessment and correction. Longer book-work questions are followed by worked solutions and detailed revision notes.

Topics include:
• Capacitance, energy storage and exponential discharge
• Electric fields and electric potential
• Magnetic fields and forces on charges
• Cyclotrons
• Magnetic flux and electromagnetic induction
• Faraday’s and Lenz’s laws
• Generators and transformers
• Atomic and nuclear structure
• Particle classification, quarks and leptons
• Radioactive decay and half-life
• Nuclear stability, binding energy, fission and fusion
• Nuclear reactors
• X-ray imaging and CT scanning
• Ultrasound imaging
• PET scanning and medical tracers

Designed for whole-class display with clear layouts, worked calculations, misconception checks and exam-focused practice.
