This comprehensive PowerPoint presentation covers Particle & Nuclear Physics for Cambridge International AS & A Level Physics.
The resource begins with the Rutherford scattering experiment, detailing the evidence that led to the nuclear atom model and the rejection of the plum pudding model. It thoroughly covers radioactivity, including alpha, beta-minus, and beta-plus decay (with nuclear equations), and analyzes the key difference in the kinetic energy spectra of alpha and beta particles. The module extends into modern physics, explaining the classification of fundamental particles into hadrons (baryons, mesons) and leptons, and introduces the quark model with calculation examples.
Perfect for classroom instruction, this PPT saves teachers time with ready-made, curriculum-aligned content. It includes clear diagrams, decay equations, definitions, and thought-provoking questions to effectively prepare students for AS Level exams on this challenging topic.
