TOPIC 01

Motion, forces and energy.

The foundation of physics: how things move, what makes them move, and the energy that drives them. The single most-tested area of the syllabus.

TOPIC 02

Thermal physics.

The particle model of matter, heat transfer, and the connection between temperature and motion at the microscopic scale.

TOPIC 03

Waves.

From ripples in a tank to the electromagnetic spectrum. How energy moves without matter, and how light bends, reflects, and disperses.

TOPIC 04

Electricity and magnetism.

From magnets and static charge to working circuits, motors, generators, and transformers. The largest topic in the syllabus by mark allocation.

TOPIC 05

Nuclear physics.

Inside the atom: protons, neutrons, isotopes, radioactivity, and the half-life calculations that show up reliably in every paper.

TOPIC 06

Space physics.

From the Earth and Solar System to the life cycle of stars and the expanding Universe. The newest, most narrative topic on the syllabus.
