System and transfer
Define the system and identify how energy or momentum is transferred. Conservation applies to the correct system and time interval.

Energy: structured theory, worked examples, answered practice, and a mastery checklist for KS3 Year 7.
Unit
The essential chapter ideas in a clear sequence before practice.
Define the system and identify how energy or momentum is transferred. Conservation applies to the correct system and time interval.
Write initial and final quantities before substituting numbers. This exposes losses, external work, and direction.
Energy describes an amount, while power describes its transfer rate. Do not compare systems using work alone when time matters.
Physics
Follow the method step by step and check why every step is valid.
A 2 kg body moves at 7 m/s. Find its kinetic energy and momentum.
Physics
Link each topic to equations, units, data handling, and required practical thinking.
The structure follows the official textbook layout and is used to organise study.
The areas that usually create mistakes or need extra revision.
Ek = 49 J, p = 14 kg·m/s
Before calculating, explain the key idea from “Energy stores” and which conditions must be checked.
The answer should show not only which rule is used for “Energy stores”, but also why it is valid here.

Try independently, use the hint if needed, then open the answer guide.
1. Explain the idea and give one correct foundation example for “Energy stores”.
Write known quantities in SI units, draw a diagram where useful, and state the law before substitution.
A complete answer links “Energy stores” to a physical law or model, correct units, and an interpretation.
2. Solve an application and show every intermediate step for “Energy transfers”.
Write known quantities in SI units, draw a diagram where useful, and state the law before substitution.
A complete answer links “Energy transfers” to a physical law or model, correct units, and an interpretation.
3. Compare a correct and an incorrect approach and justify the difference for “Heating”.
Write known quantities in SI units, draw a diagram where useful, and state the law before substitution.
A complete answer links “Heating” to a physical law or model, correct units, and an interpretation.
4. Create a short exam-style question and check your answer for “Energy resources”.
Write known quantities in SI units, draw a diagram where useful, and state the law before substitution.
A complete answer links “Energy resources” to a physical law or model, correct units, and an interpretation.
Where to start: textbook, daily material, PDFs, videos, and worked examples.
Targeted practice before full tests so coverage is clear.
