Physics
Course summary
Fundamental Physics aims to deepen the knowledge gained from GCSE Physics. Covering Mechanics, Electricity and Materials. Theoretical Physics tests the everyday thinking. From discovering the true subatomic particles that make up our universe, to explaining why classical physics fails to describe the properties of light. Covering Quantum Phenomena, Particle Physics, Waves and Optics. Kinematics uses mathematical equations to illustrate the conditions needed for an object to remain in motion, whether that be in a Gravitational, Electric, or/and a Magnetic Field. Including Nuclear Physics and Thermal Physics. Astrophysics, the branch of astronomy, studies the physical nature of stars and other celestial bodies. From The Big Bang Theory to Supernovas and Blackholes. Practical Physics including all of the topics above and learning practical Physics skills for Apprenticeships, University and Employment.
