KS4 Physics

Learn about the behaviours of objects and foces based on experiments and mathematical measurements.

This page consists of resource links for the subject of physics, covering topics including:

Energy - energy changes in a system, renewable and non-reneable energy sources, energy efficiency
Forces - forces and fields, vectors, pressure
Forces and motion - speed of sound, interpreting quantitatively graphs, acceleration, weight and gravitational field strength
Wave motion - amplitute, wavelength, grequency, electromagnetic waves, velocity in vacuum and differing between media, production and detection and uses
Electricity - measuring resistance, exploring current, resistance and voltage relationships, circuit diagrams
Magnetism and electromagnetism - exploring magnetic fields of permanent and induced magnets, magnetic effects, how transformers are used
Structure of matter - arrangements and motions of molecules, energy changes, links between pressure and temperature
Atomic structure - nuclear model and its development, masses and sizes of nuclei, atoms and small molecules, ionisation, radioactive nuclei
space physics - features of solar system
