yeah i just hope that 13/14 mark experiment is one i know properly.. do u have a list of experiments we are supposed to know?
i know that the main ones are
1) finding emf and internal resistance
2) finding spring constant
3) young's modulus

any others..
Also learn the experiment where you have to find the resistivity of a wire.
Once they asked the students to determine the power of a person...

I am pretty well prepared :)
You said that you have a problem with straight line equations...give an example of a question and I'll try my best to explain :)

First of all, c=fw [w=wavelength...i can't write lamda here :p]
therefore, f=c/w
eV=hc/w
Make V the subject, as they want V on the y-axis:
V=hc/ew
V=hc/e * 1/w

Compare it with the equation of a straight line, y=mx +c.
Here, y=V, m=hc/e, x=1/w and c=0
m is the gradient of the line, so the gradient of this line should be hc/e...

This thread is mainly for those who study IAL physics
The classes which I giv(teach) on A levels (Edexcel ) will be recorded and posted.
Just follow the link,which leads to the virtual class of mine and Get the utmost benefit of it..
Hav qns and bunch of suggestions,just welcome
!:):):)

If any specific topics needed,kindly give a request and I will try to post them to you(y)
