S3 (3a) Physics

This is the web page for your physics course in the shell year. Prep and resources on each topic will appear here in due course.

General information

At the end of the year, you will have an exam in physics on everything which you have learnt this year. Provided that you keep up-to-date with work and try quite hard during the year, it should not require much special preparation beyond jogging your memory of all that we have covered, nor prove especially difficult. We shall discuss it further nearer the time.
