Physics is the fundamental science that lies at the heart of modern engineering,
technology and medicine. The subject is studied through a variety of different
applications and contexts. For the AS course you will study 'Physics on the
Go' - the physics in sport, the food industry and the human body and 'Physics
at Work' the physics in Archaeology, space, satellites and sound recording.
Coursework includes experimental work and a case study or visit. For the A2
course you will study 'Physics on the Move' the physics in rail transport,
communication systems and particle physics and 'Physics from Creation to
Collapse' the physics in earthquakes, building design and astrophysics.
Coursework is based upon completion of an experiment. |
