Why does the universe behave the way it does? How can an ultrasound create a picture? How fast would you have to travel to fool a speed camera? What force would be necessary to stop a formula one car? What are CERN looking for? These are all questions you can answer by studying Physics. Physics A Level is one of the most universally accepted qualifications for progression to university. The course covers the basis of how things work, from the constituent parts of atoms to the extent of the universe. You will integrate the concepts studied with a range of practical experiments throughout each topic, giving the course both an academic and practical focus. You will learn to apply your knowledge of the key concepts to solve problems in a range of different context. What will I learn? Physical quantities and units Nature of quantities Forces in action Materials Charge and current Electrical circuits Quantum physics Circular motion Gravitational fields Capacitors Electromagnetism Medical imaging Making measurements and analysing data Motion Work, energy and power Momentum Energy, power and resistance Waves Thermal physics Oscillations Astrophysics and cosmology Electric fields Nuclear and particle physics
GCSE grade 7+ in Combined Science or 6+ in single sciences, also 7 in Maths You must study A-level Maths alongside Physics A level
We follow the AQA syllabus which is assessed through 100% examinations. These exams will contain a mixture of short answer and extended writing questions.
