A course with both theoretical and practical aspects. Modules 1-4 common to AS and A Level, modules 5 and 6 are only taken as part of the full two year A Level in Physics. Module 1: Development of practical skills in Physics. Module 2: Foundations of Physics – physical quantities and units, scalars and vectors, measurements. Module 3: Forces and motion – 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. Career & Further Study: Physics can be used as a basis for the study of Sciences at University. It is also a pre-requisite for entry to some courses in Medicine and Medicinal Science courses at University. Physics A Level is also a required course for studying Engineering at University. Engineering is a subject which allows students with an interest in Math's and Science to apply their knowledge to problem solving and practical work in real-world situations, working on large and small scale projects such as the Cross Rail network and the construction of the Shard tower. Physics is also a required subject for many Architecture courses at university. Due to the mathematical and modelling skills involved, students with Physics A Level often move into Financial/ Economic research/employment. In fact, Physics graduates earn some of the highest average wages of all degree subjects. Physics (alongside Chemistry and Biology) is seen as a ‘facilitating subject’ by the Russell group of universities.
Two 6 grades in the sciences, 6 in math's. Additional Information: Candidates must also study Math's
