Exam Tips for Physics

  • 1Paper 2 (AS Structured): full derivations earn marks — show every algebraic step.
  • 2Paper 4 (A Level): practical component is 30% — understand systematic vs random errors.
  • 3Paper 5 (Planning): plot error bars, draw worst-fit lines to find gradient uncertainty.
  • 4Quantum physics: E = hf and λ = h/mv — link to photoelectric effect for context.
  • 5Circular motion: centripetal force = mv²/r = mω²r — direction ALWAYS towards centre.
