Remote learning session 2 – Electricity

This session will be looking at

• Series and parallel circuits ·
• Voltage, current and resistance ·
• Ohm’s law ·
• Resistors in series and parallel ·
• VI graphs (filament lamp, diode and fixed resistor) ·
• Electrical power ·
• Heating effect of an electric current

AQA 8.2.3 Required practical activity 3 - Use circuit diagrams to set up and check appropriate circuits to investigate the factors affecting the resistance of electrical circuits. This should include: · the length of a wire at constant temperature AQA 8.2.4 Required practical activity 4 - Use circuit diagrams to construct appropriate circuits to investigate the I–V characteristics of a variety of circuit elements including a filament lamp and a resistor at constant temp.

Remote learning session 6 - Particle model

Kinetic theory · Density · Doing work on a gas · Specific heat capacity · Specific latent heat AQA 8.2.1 Required practical activity 1 - An investigation to determine the specific heat capacity of one or more materials. The investigation will involve linking the decrease of one energy store (or work done) to the increase in temperature and subsequent increase in thermal energy stored. AQA 8.2.5 Required practical activity 5 - Use appropriate apparatus to make and record the measurements needed to determine the densities of regular and irregular solid objects and liquids. Volume should be determined from the dimensions of a regularly shaped object and by a displacement technique for irregularly shaped objects. Dimensions to be measured using appropriate apparatus such as a ruler, micrometer or Vernier callipers.
