Physics A Level

UPDATED 20160613 14:33:25

You will be able to study physics as it relates to the real world by exploring the relationship between physics and technology. You will be doing varied practical work, developing your mathematical skills and tackling a range of concepts and ideas about the nature of the universe. Young people aged 16-18. Physicists ask big questions such as `what is the universe made of and how did it start?¿ They study things like mass and energy, light and sound, gravity and time. Physics covers everything from the smallest particles to the largest galaxies. As you learn about physics, you will also carry out lots of experiments and do investigations. These help you to understand the ideas and apply them to real world situations such as sport, music, food technology, satellites, earthquakes and particle accelerators. In the first year you will learn about forces and movement, materials, electrical energy, waves and sound, quantum physics and the nature of light. In the second year you will learn about electromagnetism, electric fields, nuclear and particle physics, oscillations and circular motion, gravity and astrophysics, gases and thermal energy.
