GCSE Physics is a course that explores the fundamental principles of how the universe works. You’ll study a range of topics to understand the physical laws governing energy, matter, and forces.

 

The course starts with the basics of motion and forces, where you’ll learn about speed, acceleration, and the effects of forces on objects. You’ll explore concepts like Newton's laws and how they explain everyday phenomena.

Energy is another key area. You’ll study different forms of energy, such as kinetic, potential, and thermal energy, and learn about energy transfer and conservation. This includes understanding how energy is used and conserved in various systems.

Waves and radiation are also covered, including the properties of sound and light waves, and the behavior of electromagnetic waves. You’ll learn how waves interact with materials and how they are used in technology.
