Exams and problem solving - twilight session THIS THURSDAY

Dear Y13 Physicists,

We are very lucky to have a lecturer and tutor from Oxford Uni running a session on problem solving and exam technique this Thursday (18th May) from 3-4pm.

This session will give you more opportunities to practice exam questions, and will also look at strategies for when you don't know what to do in exams!

this is optional, but highly recommended.

13b HW for Monday


who is this?
His greatest work was to fundamentally change our view of reality, so much so that Albert Einstein said, “One scientific epoch ended and another began with (this man)”.
He expressed all the existing laws of electromagnetism in four differential equations.
These exemplify the holy grail of Physics – a self consistent, powerful theory that can be written in four lines of mathematics.

This theory predicted the existence of electromagnetic waves and provided the tools to create the technological age, from radio to mobile phones.

Work for 13b from Ms H Friday - no lesson

Dear Y13
I think I saw almost all of you - Donald and Asam need to collect spec rel questions from in front of my computer.
All of you need to read about what happens to mass at high speeds and make notes, then do questions.
Thanks
Ms H
