Static Electricity : Charging Problem
Planes become charged as dusty air rubs against them in flight
They are earthed by connection to the ground when refuelling.
This stops sparks jumping near the fuel nozzle.
Static Electricity : Useful Charging
The paint is charged as it comes out of the nozzle.
The paint is attracted to the car.
The car must be earthed or connected to a positive voltage.
Another use of static: Electrostatic Precipitators.
Precipitator
1. Dust particles collect negative charges as they flow past
2. Positive plates attract the negative charged particles
3. Plates are tapped and the charged particles fall into the hoppers

Fuse
• Thin Tin wire in a glass or ceramic case (with metal ends)
• Wire chosen so that it melts (‘blows’) if too much current flows
• Disconnects live pin from the wire/appliance when it melts
• Can be chosen from 3A, 5A, 10A, 13A• Choose fuse with next highest current
value e.g. TV uses 4A – choose 5A fuse
Circuit breakers and RCD’s
• Circuit breakers work like fuses• Disconnect the live (‘trip’) when current is
too high• Can be reset (no need to change fuse!)• Work by using electromagnetic or thermal
switches• Residual Current Devices (RCD’s) are
more sensitive and disconnect the live if any current is measured in the Earth wire- useful for lawn mowers etc.
• If you double the voltage, but the resistance stays the same, you double the current.
• If you double the resistance, but the voltage stays the same, you halve the current.

What is it used for ?
Ultrasound is sound of such a high frequency that we cannot hear it (i.e above 20 000 Hz)
How does it work?
The waves are reflected off the different layers
Is this a stable (balanced) atom?
Why?
What is the MASS NUMBER?5 (three Protons & two Neutrons)
MASS NUMBER = number of protons + number of
neutrons
SYMBOL
ATOMIC NUMBER = number of protons

What do you notice?
The atomic structure doesn’t fundamentally change.

Gamma source
The gamma radiation from the radioactive source is picked up above the ground, so the leak in the pipe can be detected.
Gamma - tracers
Radiotherapy
X-Rays and Gamma Rays
Gamma rays come from the nucleus of an atom, x-rays come from a machine which fires electrons at metal targets.
Therefore x-rays are easier to control than gamma rays.
They both give out similar wavelengths
(Both are electromagnetic
waves)
Nuclear Fission
This energy is used to heat water into steam.
The steam drives round a turbine.
The turbine drives a generator (dynamo).
The Earth and the MoonThe Earth and the MoonThe Earth’s gravity attracts the Moon, in the same way the Moon’s gravity attracts the Earth.
It is the gravitational attraction of the Moon which causes the tides in the oceans on Earth.

Constant Acceleration Formulas - SummaryConstant Acceleration Formulas - Summary
Symbol Meaning Unit
v final velocity m/s
u initial velocity m/s
s distance travelled m
t time taken s
a acceleration m/s2
We have 4 formulas. These formulas will help you calculate any motion problem in which a body undergoes zero or constant acceleration.
Formulas
s = (u + v ) x t 2
s = ut + ½at2
v = u + at
v2 = u2 + 2as
Whenever you have any 3 of the five ‘v-u-s-t-a’ unknowns, you can find out the remaining 2 unknown values by using one or more of the above formulas…
A tourist drops a croissant from the top of the Eiffel Tower.The croissant falls for 8 seconds.Ignoring air resistance, how high is the Eiffel Tower?

Horizontal
Vertical
Ignoring air resistance, the only force acting on a projectile during the flight is gravity.
Projectiles have a downward acceleration (due to gravity) and this only affects the vertical velocity.
For a projectile there is no acceleration in the horizontal direction.

Calculating Time TakenCalculating Time TakenExample: Calculate the time taken, from firing, for the cannon ball to hit the target.
t = d/s
t = 48/24
Time taken is 2s
t = 2
t = d/s is a formula that can be applied to solve problems, whenever velocity is constant...
Velocity is constant in the horizontal vector...
Calculate the final vertical velocity of the cannon ball as it hits the target. In this case a = g = 9.8ms-2 (9.8m/s2)
Calculating Final VelocityCalculating Final Velocity
Example:
v = u + at
v = 0 + 9.8 x 2
v = 19.6m/s
v = u + at is a formula that can be applied to solve problems, whenever acceleration is constant...
Final vertical velocity is 19.6m/s
v = 0 + 19.6

Impulse & Momentum - SummaryImpulse & Momentum - Summary
An impulse is a sudden force applied for a short
period of time.
An impulse causes(and is equal to) the
change in momentum.

Geostationary - Equatorial Orbiting SatellitesGeostationary - Equatorial Orbiting Satellites
Geostationary satellites are used for telecommunication purposes, and they are also known as geosynchronous satellites.
Geostationary satellites are used for telephone signals and satellite TV broadcasts.
Three satellites can cover the whole surface of the Earth.

Microwaves pass through the Earth’s atmosphere with less interference than longer wavelengths (radio waves), so they are used to carry signals to satellites orbiting the Earth.
PolarisationPolarisation
light beam
beam of polarised light
polarising filter
Polarising filters polarise light because they are composed of long-chain molecules, which are aligned within the filter in the same direction, (e.g. vertically).
As unpolarised light strikes the polarising filter, the portion of the waves vibrating in any plane other than vertical,(e.g. horizontal waves) are absorbed by the filter.
Electromagnetic waves obey the wave formula:

Snell's law also states that the refractive index of a medium can be calculated from the angles of incidence and refraction:
Refraction at a BoundaryRefraction at a Boundary
n = sin i sin r
n = sin 57º sin 33º
n = 0.838 0.544
The refractive index of the glass block is 1.54
Total Internal ReflectionTotal Internal Reflection
42º is known as the critical angle. Above this angle the light ray is reflected internally. This is known as total internal reflection and it is the phenomenon exploited by fibre optic cable technology.
Use the angle slider to see what happens when the angle at which the light enters a glass block is increased...

RESIST a current. It is measured in Ohms, a unit
named after me.
The resistance of a component can be calculated using Ohm’s Law:

Induced current can be increased in 4 ways:
1) Increasing the speed of movement
2) Increasing the magnetic field strength
3) Increasing the number of turns on the coil
4) Increasing the area of the coil
1) Alternating current into the primary coil
2) Current, passing through a coil, generates a magnetic field
3) Because the current is alternating, it generates a changing magnetic field
4) A changing magnetic field induces a current in the secondary coil
Power
• Reminder P = IV
• In a perfectly efficient transformer, the power in is equal to the power out.
• Or,
• So, if the Voltage doubles, the Current will halve.

The basis of a latch is this pattern of linked NOR gates. They can also be made with NAND gates in a similar pattern.NOR gates work with negative pulses, NAND gates work with positive pulses.
A brief high (1) signal at one input results in a permanent high (1) signal at the latch output.
A brief high (1) signal at the other input causes a low (0) signal at the latch output.
A low (0) signal at both inputs leaves the latch output signal unchanged.
