1 Introduction This presentation includes some samples from our Interactive KS3 Physics Software. The two CD-ROMs aim to cover the requirements of KS3 Physics through a series of high quality informative slides, diagrams, animations and interactive questions. To fully access the benefits of the software, you will need to have the MACROMEDIA FLASH PLAYER 7 (or later) installed on your computer/network. This program is FREE and downloadable from the Macromedia website at: If you have any problems using this software, please do not hesitate to contact us. Tel: Fax: Web:

This is done using numerous high quality animations, interactive exercises and a total of over 600 slides.

3 IT: Dispersion

4 Devices Can you identify the electrical device shown?

5 Switches Click on a switch to see its effect.

6 Ammeters Ammeters are used to measure electrical current.

7 Exercise: Circuits 1.Study the circuit below then answer the questions. a)What will happen when the switch is closed? b)Why? c)What do we call this type of circuit? d)Draw how the circuit should be set up so the lamp lights when the switch is closed. The lamp does not light Electricity always takes the easiest route and it is easier to go through the wire than the lamp A short circuit
