2. Course description Summary: This course is a detailed overview of physics, including mechanics and nuclear physics. Course description: Physics is a fascinating theoretical subject about how the real world (and the rest of the universe) works. It asks about everything from what existed before the Big Bang to how cars can use less petrol. Topics include: - particles - quantum phenomena and electricity - mechanics - materials and waves - fields and further mechanics - nuclear and thermal physics The course combines learning about theories in physics with practical laboratory work and analysing data. You are likely to do well if you can think logically, critically and imaginatively and are willing to work hard. The course can be challenging and you will need to persevere when you cannot immediately see the solution to a problem. It includes some mathematical concepts and theories, so it will also help if you enjoy and are good at mathematics, especially algebra. Physics can be taken with any other subjects, but students often choose; mathematics, chemistry, biology or geography. Assessment: You will be assessed through written exams and practical work.
