Cambridge International AS & A Level Physics Practical Teacher's Guide


Book Description

This teacher's guide complements the practical workbook, helping you include more practical work in your Cambridge International AS & A Level Physics lessons. It contains advice about planning investigations, guidance about safety considerations, as well as differentiated learning suggestions to support students who might be struggling and those who are more able. This guide contains answers to all the questions in the practical workbook and includes model data to be used when an investigation cannot be carried out.




Practical Physics


Book Description

This book sets out to demonstrate the purpose and critical approach that should be made to all experimental work in physics. It does not describe a systematic course in practical work. The present edition retains the basic outlook of earlier editions, but modifications have been made in response to important changes in computational and experimental methods in the past decade. The text is in three parts. The first deals with the statistical treatment of data, and here the text has been extensively revised to take account of the now widespread use of electronic calculators. The second deals with experimental methods, giving details of particular experiments that demonstrate the art and craft of the experimenter. The third part deals with such essential matters as keeping efficient records, accuracy in arithmetic, and writing good, scientific English. Copyright © Libri GmbH. All rights reserved.




Advanced Level Practical Work for Chemistry


Book Description

Advanced Level Practical Work for Chemistry is a guide that will help students to succeed with the practical elements of their Chemistry course. The book covers all main types of practical exercise in physical, inorganic and organic chemistry at this level. Case studies both illustrate the principles and show students how to set about planning, carrying out, analysing and evaluating their experiments. The book is a source of reference with details of the tests used in inorganic and organic analysis. There are entire chapters dedicated to tackling investigations, measurement uncertainty and risk assessment.




Physics for Advanced Level


Book Description

This course study guide is to be used with New Understanding Physics for Advanced Level or other physics core textbooks. It aims to help further develop physics skills such as laboratory techniques, mathematical methods and data handling. The course study guide also provides outline solutions to a selection of questions and gives advice on answering all types of examination questions and support for Key Skills.




Head First Physics


Book Description

Wouldn't it be great if there were a physics book that showed you how things work instead of telling you how? Finally, with Head First Physics, there is. This comprehensive book takes the stress out of learning mechanics and practical physics by providing a fun and engaging experience, especially for students who "just don't get it." Head First Physics offers a format that's rich in visuals and full of activities, including pictures, illustrations, puzzles, stories, and quizzes -- a mixed-media style proven to stimulate learning and retention. One look will convince you: This isn't mere theory, this is physics brought to life through real-world scenarios, simple experiments, and hypothetical projects. Head First Physics is perfect for anyone who's intrigued by how things work in the natural world. You'll quickly discover that physics isn't a dry subject. It's all about the world we live in, encompassing everything from falling objects and speeding cars, to conservation of energy and gravity and weightlessness, and orbital behavior. This book: Helps you think like a physicist so you can understand why things really work the way they do Gives you relevant examples so you can fully grasp the principles before moving on to more complex concepts Designed to be used as a supplement study guide for the College Board's Advanced Placement Physics B Exam Introduces principles for the purpose of solving real-world problems, not memorization Teaches you how to measure, observe, calculate -- and yes -- how to do the math Covers scientific notation, SI units, vectors, motion, momentum conservation, Newton's Laws, energy conservation, weight and mass, gravitation and orbits, circular motion and simple harmonic motion, and much more If "Myth Busters" and other TV programs make you curious about our physical world -- or if you're a student forced to take a physics course -- now you can pursue the subject without the dread of boredom or the fear that it will be over your head. Head First Physics comes to rescue with an innovative, engaging, and inspirational way to learn physics!
