Graphs of Trigonometric Functions What are the graphs of trigonometric functions? The trigonometric functions sin, cos and tan all have special periodic graphs You’ll need to know their properties ...
Gravitational Field Strength in a Radial Field The gravitational field strength, g at a point describes how strong or weak a gravitational field is at that point g in a radial field (such as...
Newton's Law of Gravitation The gravitational force between two bodies outside a uniform field, e.g. between the Earth and the Sun, is defined by Newton’s Law of Gravitation Recall that the ...
Gravitational Field Lines The direction of a gravitational field is represented by gravitational field lines The gravitational field lines around a point mass are radially inwards The gravit...
Trigonometry Exact Values What are exact values in trigonometry? For certain angles the values of sin θ, cos θ and tan θ can be written exactly This means using fractions and surds You should be fa...
Gravitational Force There is a universal force of attraction between all matter with mass This force is known as the ‘force due to gravity’ or the weight The Earth’s gravitational fie...
Concept of a Force Field A force field is any region of space where a body will experience a non-contact force This will cause the body to move, interact or be deformed in some way A ...
Evolving Models of Gas Behaviour Our knowledge and understanding of the behaviour of gases has changed significantly over time The gas laws were developed by many scientists over thousands o...
Defining Sin, Cos and Tan What is the unit circle? The unit circle is a circle with radius 1 and centre (0, 0) Angles are always measured from the positive x-axis and turn: anticlockwise for positi...
