  • Programme 2 Kinetic Theory of Gases
    The Kinetic Theory of gases is developed. It is shown how the theory explains, The Ideal Gal Laws, Diffusion, Evaporation and the Cooling Produced By Evaporation.
  • Programme 3 Atomic Energy levels and the origins of X-rays.
    See above
  • Programme 4 Basic Electromagnetism
    By using the analogy with gravity, the electrical concepts of force, field, potential and gradient of potential around a charge are explained. By linking magnetism to electrostatics, electromagnetism is introduced. This leads to a clear explanation of energy transfer in electromagnetic waves.
  • Programme 5 Geomagnetism
