The course will be 100% exam-based with compulsory investigations that will need to be carried out, in order to be able to complete all of the expected questions. ● Physics is the most fundamental of all Sciences providing the foundation stones upon which many diverse disciplines are based. Physics is the study of energy and forces and how they interact with matter. In this course, you will study the biggest to the smallest and everything in between, from the Universe and beyond to the fundamental particles that make up matter itself. ● At TBCC, we teach the new AQA Physics A Level course, which has been designed to make studying Physics both rigorous and enjoyable. ● This new specification provides a traditional approach to Physics and is designed to encourage candidates to gain hands-on practical skills and data analysis skills. ● Year 1 topics include: Subatomic Particles and Radiation; Waves; Mechanics and Energy; Electricity. ● There are two Year 1 exams: Paper 1 covers all topics, and Paper 2 also covers all topics plus practical skills & data analysis. These papers would only be sat by students who would not be continuing the course into Y13. ● Year 2 topics include Further Mechanics and Thermal Physics; Magnetic and Gravitational Fields; Nuclear Physics; and One option from Astrophysics or Engineering Physics. ● There are three A-Level exams: Papers 1 and 2 cover all Year 1 and 2 topics, and Paper 3 covers the option topics plus practical skills and data analysis.
