Describes the physical properties of granular materials (powders and grains) whose complex behaviour is between solids, liquids and gases.
An exploration of the building and testing of the first atomic bomb in Los Alamos, New Mexico, and the scientists involved in the Manhattan Project. Includes dramatisations, a 3-D virtual environment,...
CD-ROM programmes containing a wide range of interactive animated physics simulations and models. With audio commentary and step-by-step controls for individual learning.
Introduces radioactive decay, using radioactive dating for artifacts and fossils as examples. Explains how to describe decay in terms of nuclear equations and half-life calculations.
Observes the behaviour of light in experiments involving black body radiation and the photoelectric effect. When the observations are analysed from the point of view of Maxwell’s model of light, it is...
Shows how with machines force and distance can vary but work is constant, using the formula: work = force x distance. Shows the inclined plane, pulleys, levers, gears as circuar levers and belt pulleys, and...
Asks what responsibility scientists have for their discoveries. In the early 1940s some of the most crucial work on the atomic bomb was done in Oxford, changing out world forever. In 1995, 50 years after...
Video, audio and software package comprising 83 self-study modules for introductory physics and related mathematics. It is designed as a resource from which a variety of flexible-entry, self-study courses...
Self-paced teaching materials intended to provide theoretical training about radiation safety required by UK legislation concerned with the Protection of Persons Undergoing Medical Examination and Treatment...
Teaching module covering some of the fundamental principles of mathematics, chemistry and physics needed in first-year geology, using geological examples. Approximately 4 hours of teaching material, intended...
