Physics seeks to explain the entire universe, from the smallest sub‐atomic particles to the largest galaxies! The course aims to stimulate students’ interest in and enjoyment of Physics and how it explains the world around them. The concepts studied will be applied to uses and applications that are engaging and reflect current areas of interest. Students will complete practical tasks which are integrated into the course, some of which will be assessed for the practical endorsement.
At the end of the course, there are three written examinations. 9PH0/01 and 9PH0/02 are each worth 30% of the marks, and each include questions about the concepts studied in one half of the course. 9PH0/03 is worth 40% of the marks and it includes synoptic questions and questions about students’ theoretical understanding of experimental methods. The practical endorsement is assessed in class practicals.
