Sessions

Short interactive lessons that ask a question before they explain. One session takes about ten minutes and ends with questions to check what you have understood.

SESSION 1 1 Units and Measurement Class 11 · Physics Units and Measurement Free

Measuring, and the SI system

A measurement is a number and a unit. Seven SI base units define every other unit in physics.

SESSION 2 2 Units and Measurement Class 11 · Physics Units and Measurement Free

Significant figures

The significant figures of a measurement are the reliable digits plus one estimated digit.

SESSION 3 3 Units and Measurement Class 11 · Physics Units and Measurement Free

Rounding through a calculation

Products keep the fewest significant figures; sums keep the fewest decimal places.

SESSION 4 4 Units and Measurement Class 11 · Physics Units and Measurement Free

Dimensions of physical quantities

The dimensions of a quantity state which base quantities it is made from, and with what powers.

SESSION 5 5 Units and Measurement Class 11 · Physics Units and Measurement Free

Dimensional analysis

If two sides of an equation have different dimensions, it is wrong. A match does not prove it right.

SESSION 1 1 Charge and the Field Around It Class 12 · Physics Charge and the Field Around It Free

Charge, and its three rules

Like charges repel and unlike charges attract. Charge is additive, conserved and quantised.

SESSION 2 2 Charge and the Field Around It Class 12 · Physics Charge and the Field Around It Free

Coulomb's law

The force between two point charges is proportional to their product and to 1/r².

SESSION 3 3 Charge and the Field Around It Class 12 · Physics Charge and the Field Around It Free

Force from many charges

The total force on a charge is the vector sum of the forces each other charge exerts alone.

SESSION 4 4 Charge and the Field Around It Class 12 · Physics Charge and the Field Around It Free

The electric field

The field is the force per unit charge at each point. A charge q in a field E feels F = qE.

SESSION 5 5 Charge and the Field Around It Class 12 · Physics Charge and the Field Around It Free

Field lines and flux

Field lines show the field’s direction and strength; flux Φ = EA cos θ measures the field through a surface.

SESSION 6 6 Charge and the Field Around It Class 12 · Physics Charge and the Field Around It Free

The electric dipole

Equal and opposite charges a small distance apart. In a uniform field: no net force, but a torque pE sin θ.

SESSION 7 7 Charge and the Field Around It Class 12 · Physics Charge and the Field Around It Free

Gauss's law

The flux out of any closed surface equals the enclosed charge divided by ε₀.
