Physics Lessons

The physics lessons run along two strands. The first follows waves: what a wave actually is, how frequency, wavelength and speed connect, and where visible light sits in the electromagnetic spectrum next to radio waves, infrared, X-rays and gamma rays.

The second strand is motion and electricity. It opens with speed, then works through current and voltage, the calculations circuits demand, and Ohm’s law taken apart with worked examples — before stepping back to ask where the electricity came from in the first place, comparing renewable and non-renewable generation. All are free and aimed at Grade 6-11 students.
