GCSE Physics - Transformer ratio equations

(1)
This worksheet takes students through how to calculate the properties of different types of transformers. It introduces them to the number of turns equation and shows how to manipulate this to calculate either the number of turns or the voltage on the primary or secondary coils. This is provided complete with answers!

GCSE Combined Science - Trilogy - Practical tracker

(0)
This is a tracker sheet that enables students to record when they have completed each required practical for the Trilogy GCSE. It covers the Biology, Chemistry and Physics practicals for the Combined Science GCSE. There is also a useful link to some required practical videos to enable students to revisit these when they are revising.
GCSE Combined Science - Physics - Paper 1 Mind Map
ncrumptonncrumpton

GCSE Combined Science - Physics - Paper 1 Mind Map

(0)
This has the main topic headings for the Combined Science Paper 1 grouped according to topic. Each required practical is highlighted. This can be used as a revision aid for students to work through and identify areas to work on or they can add to and improve the mind map with detail although it may want to be blown up onto A3 for this.
GCSE Physics - Work done calculations Foundation Tier
ncrumptonncrumpton

GCSE Physics - Work done calculations Foundation Tier

(0)
This worksheet is aimed at Foundation Tier students. The worksheet is scaffolded so they can get going quickly and make progress. The sheet progresses in challenge as indicated by circle, triangle, square and there is a super challenge question where they have to rearrange the formula first. This worksheet is suitable for GCSE Physics and GCSE Combined Science.
GCSE Science - Sketch Graphs
ncrumptonncrumpton

GCSE Science - Sketch Graphs

(0)
A worksheet to give practice of drawing sketch graphs for the new GCSE Sciences, Biology, CHemistry and Physics. This teaches students how to draw a sketch graph then there is practise for them to have a go at. Answers are included! There is also a YouTube video instructing them on how to draw a sketch graph - this could all be set for homework.
GCSE Sciences - Maths for Science Knowledge Organiser
ncrumptonncrumpton

GCSE Sciences - Maths for Science Knowledge Organiser

(0)
This knowledge organiser is a great revision aid for all those maths skills that students need for the new GCSE Biology, Chemistry, Physics or Combined Science. It covers standard form, conversions, definitions of keywords such as uncertainty and precision, graphs and operator precedence. Use it for students as a mat to aid in calculations or as a summary of knowledge to be learned.
GCSE Physics - Atomic Theory Knowledge organiser
ncrumptonncrumpton

GCSE Physics - Atomic Theory Knowledge organiser

(0)
A knowledge organiser for the basic knowledge of atomic theory. It covers everything from strcuture of the atom through half-life to nuclear equations all on one A4 sheet. This is an excellent revision aid and can be used for look, cover, write, check or testing each other or many different uses.
GCSE Physics - SUVAT equations of motion, v^2-u^2=2as
ncrumptonncrumpton

GCSE Physics - SUVAT equations of motion, v^2-u^2=2as

(0)
A scaffolded worksheet and answers for the new 9-1 GCSE Scheme. This takes students through the process of calculating final speed using v^2-u^2=2as. It then encourages them to re-arrange the formula and calculate speed. All data is real data for the vehicles quoted.
GCSE Physics - Elastic Potential Energy worksheets
ncrumptonncrumpton

GCSE Physics - Elastic Potential Energy worksheets

(0)
A pair of scaffolded worksheets that take students through calculating the force applies to a spring, the elastic potential energy stored in a spring and then rearranging the equation to calculate spring constant or extension. The answer sheets are also included with rearranged equations and units. This accompanies the work on Hooke's Law which can also be downloaded from my web shop Grade Gain.

ncrumptonncrumpton

GCSE Physics - Force on a Spring and Elastic Potential Energy calculations

(0)
A scaffolded worksheet to help students with calculating the Force on a spring given the extension and the spring constant using F=ke. It then goes on to get students to calculate elastic potential energy in the same situations using E=0.5ke^2 This worksheet comes with an Answer sheet as well!

GCSE Physics - Free body diagrams and vector diagrams worksheet
ncrumptonncrumpton

GCSE Physics - Free body diagrams and vector diagrams worksheet

(0)
A worksheet aimed at helping students to draw Free Body Diagrams. It also gives them the opportunity to calculate resultant forces and vectors based on information provided. Finally they get to draw vector diagrams to combine vectors to find a resultant. Aimed at GCSE Physics but also suitable for combined science.
GCSE Physics - Work done calculations
ncrumptonncrumpton

GCSE Physics - Work done calculations

(0)
A differentiated worksheet of calculations for work done. Students complete a range of scaffolded questions about work done, distance and force. They move on to rearranging the equation for work done.
