Advanced Physics Homework

Subject: Physics
Level: Secondary
Age Group: 16 - 18

Advanced Physics Homework is a set of question sheets designed to test the main areas of Physics for 16-19 year old students.

Each sheet includes answers as footnotes. These are intended to be given to pupils as most questions test the method of finding the solution, and the sheets on the disk may be edited to remove some/all answers as required. Progress tests can be written quickly by just copying and pasting questions to a new document, and the test document will automatically update the question numbers and provide the answer sheet from the footnote answers of the originals. The facility to edit the sheets makes them suitable for adaptation to any Advanced Physics syllabus although they were initially written to match the Edexcel AS & A2 specification.

Topics intended for use by 16-17 year old pupils (AS Level) are:

• Equations of Motion
• Motion Graphs
• Forces
• Dynamics
• Mechanical Energy
• Radioactivity
• Current & Potential Difference
• Electrical Circuits
• Heating Matter
• Thermodynamics
• Astrophysics

Topics intended for use by older pupils (A2 Level) are:

• Circular Motion
• Waves
• Quantum Phenomena
• Expanding Universe
• Gravitational Fields
• Electric Fields
• Magnetic Fields
• Analogies in Physics (i.e. decay of charge on a capacitor and radioactive decay)
• Particle Accelerators
• A Passage Analysis on the topic of Solar Sailing
