This page provides the links to my videos on this site and are arranged according to the NSW curriculum in terms of modules and inquiry questions.

Module 2
Inquiry question: How are forces produced between objects and what effects do forces produce?
|
|
Module 3
IQ: What are the properties of all waves and wave motion? IQ: How do waves behave?
|
|
Module 4
in IQ: How do charged objects interact with other charged objects and with neutral objects?
|
|
Year 12

Module 5
IQ: How can models that are used to explain projectile motion be used to analyse and make predictions?
|
|
IQ: Why do objects move in circles?
IQ:: How does the force of gravity determine the motion of planets and satellites?
|
|
Module 6
IQ:What happens to stationary and moving charged particles when they interact with an electric or magnetic field?
|
|
IQ:Under what circumstances is a force produced on a current carrying conductor in a magnetic field??
|
|
IQ :How are electric and magnetic fields related?
|
|
IQ: How has knowledge about the Motor Effect been applied to technological advances?
Module 7
Download overview
IQ What is light?
IQ: What evidence supports the classical wave model of light and what predictions can be made using this model?
IQ What evidence supports the particle model of light and what are the implications of this evidence for the development of the quantum model of light?
IQ: How does the behaviour of light affect concepts of time, space and matter?
|
Module 8
IQ What evidence is there for the origins of the elements?
|
|
IQ: How is it known that atoms are made up of protons, neutrons and electrons?
|
|
IQ: How is it known that classical physics cannot explain the properties of the atom?
IQ: How can the energy of the atomic nucleus be harnessed?
IQ: How is it known that human understanding of matter is still incomplete?
