AQA GCSE Combined Science: Forces and Motion

This deck covers forces and motion as required by the AQA Combined Science: Trilogy specification. It includes scalar and vector quantities, contact and non-contact forces, gravity and weight, resultant forces, forces and elasticity (Hooke's Law), and the analysis of motion using distance-time and velocity-time graphs. It also covers Newton's First and Second Laws. This deck includes Required Practical 5 (Force and Extension) and Required Practical 6 (Force, Mass, and Acceleration).

Lesson#1
In this deck, we'll explore the world of forces and motion. You'll learn how to describe movement, what causes it to change, and the laws that govern it. We'll cover everything from simple pushes and pulls to the fundamental laws discovered by Isaac Newton. We'll also look at two required practicals: one investigating springs and another investigating how force and mass affect acceleration.
Lesson#2
In physics, we describe quantities in two ways: as scalars or as vectors. A scalar quantity has only a magnitude, which is another word for size. For example, a speed of 30 miles per hour is a scalar. A vector quantity has both a magnitude and a direction. For example, a velocity of 30 miles per hour due north is a vector. The direction is crucial.
Quiz#3
What type of quantity has a magnitude but no direction?

scalar

Quiz#4
What type of quantity has both a magnitude and a direction?

vector

Quiz#5
Is distance a scalar or a vector quantity?

scalar

Quiz#6
Is displacement a scalar or a vector quantity?

vector
