Part of the Edexcel GCSE Combined Science curriculum.
Edexcel GCSE Combined Science 3 Conservation of Energy is a step-by-step online learn guide for GCSE students in Years 10 and 11, mapped to the Edexcel specification (Pearson Edexcel GCSE Combined Science (1SC0) – Physics Topic 3 Conservation of energy). It covers energy stores and transfers, gravitational potential energy, kinetic energy, conservation of energy, dissipation and reducing unwanted transfers, efficiency and energy resources, then brings it all together with mixed retrieval and exam practice.
There are 23 short steps of about 15 minutes (roughly 6 hours of learning), each made of bite-size explanations with key words, tables and examples, and every bite-size is followed by an activity you check straight away. Key terms include Energy store, Kinetic store, Gravitational potential energy, Gravitational field strength, Kinetic energy, KE = ½ × m × v², Conservation of energy, Closed system, Dissipation, Friction, Efficiency and Useful energy.
