Are you interested in the physics topics in your science studies at GCSE? Are you good at Maths? Do you enjoy problem solving? Would you like to know more about fundamental ideas such as quantum mechanics, cosmology and nuclear physics? If the answer to these questions is yes, then A Level Physics might be for you. • Module 1 – Development of practical skills in Physics: skills of planning, implementing, analysis and evaluation • Module 2 – Foundations of Physics: physical quantities and units; scalars and vectors; measurements • Module 3 – Forces and motion: motion; forces in action; work, energy and power; materials; Newton’s laws of motion and momentum • Module 4 – Electrons, waves and photons: charge and current; energy, power and resistance; electrical circuits; waves; quantum physics • Module 5 – Newtonian world and astrophysics: thermal Physics; circular motion; oscillations; gravitational fields; astrophysics • Module 6 – Particles and medical Physics: capacitors; electric fields; electromagnetism; nuclear and particle physics; medical imaging.
- Minimum Entry Requirement for Sixth is Five 5s. For Triple Science students, 7 in Physics and 6 in Maths. For Combined Science students, grade 7-7 in Science and 6 in Maths. - 5 grade 5s which include maths and either English Language or Literature, or 5 grade 5s AND at least a 4 in maths and English Language or Literature.
There are three papers plus a practical endorsement.
