Part of the best-selling '...for Beginners' series that brings to
life the wide world of physics. Rather than explaining details
about how to do physics, this book focusses on explaining what
different branches of physics are about, how we know about them,
and what mysteries remain for budding physicists to uncover. It
doesn't shy away from the hard stuff, tackling black holes, quantum
mechanics and even Einstein's theories of relativity.
Were you looking for the book with access to MasteringPhysics? This
product is the book alone and does NOT come with access to
MasteringPhysics. Buy the book and access card package to save
money on this resource. This best-selling introduction to the
physical and life sciences emphasizes concepts over computation and
treats equations as a guide to thinking so the reader can connect
ideas. Conceptual Integrated Science covers physics, chemistry,
earth science, astronomy, and biology at a level appropriate for
non-science students. The conceptual approach relates science to
everyday life, is personal and direct, deemphasizes jargon, and
emphasizes central ideas. The conceptual ideas serve as the
foundation supporting and integrating all the sciences.

frames structured around the assessment objectives to allow
students to record, analyse and evaluate their results New updated
practical-based exam-style questions focused on common problem
areas for students A Practical Skills checklist, so that students
can track the practical skills they have learnt in preparation for
the exam A full list of equations that students need to learn and
answers at the back Free online technician notes. All the
worksheets and methods have been reviewed and checked by CLEAPSS so
you can be certain the practicals work and are safe in the
classroom.
Following The Element in the Room and That's Life!, this fun and beautiful book will have young scientists unlocking the world of Physics, seeing how the same physical laws which govern the wider universe are also at play much closer to home.
Covering motion, forces, gravity, matter, energy and much more, this engaging and accessible guide includes comic strips to bring the stories of great scientists and their discoveries to life and hands-on experiments to have fun with at home.
Get ready for an adventure as Sherlock Ohms and friends reveal the rules that run the universe!
* Inclusion of realistic 3D simulations that behave very much like
the real thing. This isn't just setting a value and reading
something off the screen. These incorporate the physicality of the
experiments, which might mean positioning yourself so that a moving
needle can be seen accurately by using your position to remove
parallax. * Based on academic research into teaching online. *
Coverage of all of the required practicals (AQA). * Inclusion of
background information on each experiment. * Detailed accounts of
how to perform the experiment for real or with the simulation. *
The simulations have the Association for Science's Green Tick of
approval.

What is motion? Learn all about the concept of motion and how it
plays a part in your everyday life. Find out what is fast, what is
slow and how gravity fits in.
Starring the Cat in the Hat, this rhymed nonfiction board book
about space is perfect for nurturing a love of science in babies
and toddlers too young for the Cat in the Hat's Learning Library
series! The Cat in the Hat and Thing One and Thing Two tour the
solar sytem in this sturdy board book that's perfect for
introducing babies and toddlers to the world around them. With
stops at the Sun and each of the eight planets, there's plenty to
look at and lots of fun facts to learn. (Who knew? A crater on
Mercury is named for Dr. Seuss!) There's no better way to introduce
informational texts or the natural world to kids than with the Cat
in the Hat--someone who knows a LOT about having fun! Also look for

It's time to chuck away your dreary science textbooks and explore
the grim gruesome and grizzly side of science. Leave your test
tubes and bar charts at home - we don't like boring science here.

Provides banks of questions to address the requirements of the
revised CCEA GCSE Physics specification and covers both the full
Physics course and the Physics component of Double Award Science.
Questions are entirely new, not from past papers and suitable for
use as classroom material, for use in homework and to assist with
revision. Includes an indication of whether each question is
appropriate for the foundation tier and/or higher tier. The author,
Roy White, is a highly reputable author and will be well known to
teachers in Northern Ireland. To encourage the students' work
answers will not be printed in the rear of the book. Full set of
answers, including the process where appropriate available via this

This is one of three similar books that will also cover GCSE
Biology and Chemistry.
This book provides a detailed model of both the discourse and
knowledge of physics and offers insights toward developing pedagogy
that improves how physics is taught and learned. Building on a rich
history of applying a Systemic Functional Linguistics approach to
scientific discourse, the book uses an SFL framework, here extended
to encompass the more recently developed Systemic Functional
Multimodal Discourse Analysis approach, to explore the field's
multimodal nature and offer detailed descriptions of three of its
key semiotic resources - language, image, and mathematics. To
complement the book's SFL underpinnings, Doran draws on the
sociological framework of Legitimation Code Theory, which offers
tools for understanding the principles of how knowledge is
developed and valued, to explore the manifestation of knowledge in
physics specifically and its relationship with discourse. Through
its detailed descriptions of the key semiotic resources and its
analysis of the knowledge structure of physics, this book is an
invaluable resource for graduate students and researchers in
multimodality, discourse analysis, educational linguistics, and
science education.
Exam Board: AQA Level & Subject: GCSE Combined Science: Trilogy
First teaching: September 2016 Next exams: June 2023 This Workbook
will support and motivate students to reach their full potential
with targeted questions and support. Provides plenty of practice
opportunities for short- and long-answer questions on every topic
Builds confidence with worked examples demonstrating how to answer
different types of questions Further support from hints and tips
explaining command words, advising how to approach questions and
more The questions begin with confidence-building, lower demand
questions and they are ramped throughout each topic. The workbook
provides coverage of maths and practical skills as well as offering
synoptic questions. The range of questions available encourages
students to develop their skills in applying and analysing as well
as recall. Frequent support notes provide hints and tips on
strategies for decoding questions (for example by identifying key
words in the question), key terminology, and how to write
explanations and give the right amount of detail.
Discover how physics is part of our daily lives with Everyday STEM
Science - Physics. Explore how physics is all around us! Learn how
physics keeps a plane in the air, find out about light and dark
matter, and meet the scientists who have brought physics to life,
including Shohini Gose, Michael Faraday and Vera Rubin. Readers can
also carry out cool physics experiments at home. With
easy-to-understand text written by STEM expert Dr Shini Somara and
lots of colourful artworks, photos and diagrams, readers can best
explore where we encounter physics and why it's even important at
all. The Everyday STEM series makes science relevant to tweens.
Instead of telling kids STEM is important and is the key to their
future success, these books show readers how we use science,
technology, engineering and maths in our everyday lives. While the
topics sound high-level and complex, this series makes these
concepts age-appropriate and accessible. So, while we can't promise
to teach 9 to 11-year-olds quantum physics, we can explain in the
simplest terms the practical applications of STEM.
