Physics

This is a course ideal for students who enjoy investigating the world around them with an emphasis on practical activities. Additionally, students who are interested in pursuing physics and other sciences at VCE level will find this course rewarding. Fundamental concepts related to electricity and magnetism, including the construction of electrical circuits and motors will be introduced. There will be an exploration of forces and motion in relation to a range of real-world applications. There will also be a focus on exploring thermodynamic principles and identifying how these impact on our environment. Students will build upon their skills in critical thinking, report writing, interpretation of data, use of formulae and describing real-world phenomena using physics.
