AQA GCSE Physics – Topic 4: Atomic Structure (Overview)

In this video, we cover the key points from the Atomic Structure section of AQA GCSE Physics Paper 1. Learn how atoms are structured, how scientific models of the atom developed, and how unstable nuclei release radiation. We also look at half-life, the differences between contamination and irradiation, and the uses of nuclear fission and fusion.

📘 Covers:
• Structure of the atom (protons, neutrons, electrons)
• Isotopes and ions
• Development of the atomic model (Dalton → Rutherford → Bohr → Chadwick)
• Types of nuclear radiation (alpha, beta, gamma)
• Nuclear equations explained
• Half-life and radioactive decay
• Contamination vs irradiation
• Background radiation and radiation dose
• Uses of radiation in medicine and industry
• Nuclear fission and nuclear fusion

Perfect for Year 10 & Year 11 students following the AQA specification — whether revising for exams or learning the topic for the first time.
