Chapter 1

Quantities and Measurement

Use units, estimates and uncertainty to judge measurements, and represent vector magnitude and direction consistently.

Chapter 2

Forces and Moments

Identify forces, use spring data, calculate turning effects and combine force and moment balances.

Chapter 3

Motion and Forces

Describe signed motion, interpret graphs, derive constant-acceleration equations and connect resultant force with momentum change.

Chapter 4

Energy and Fields

Account for energy, calculate work and power, and connect field direction with force and potential-energy changes.

Chapter 5

Projectile Motion

Use perpendicular motion components, calculate gravitational energy changes and explain a fall with air resistance.

Chapter 6

Collisions

Use signed impulse and momentum accounts, then distinguish elastic, separating inelastic and sticking collisions.

Chapter 7

Circular Motion

Describe uniform turns, identify the forces producing inward acceleration and apply gravity to circular satellite orbits.

Chapter 8

Currents

Connect charge flow and drift to source energy, electrical power and a measured useful output.

Chapter 9

Circuits

Read circuit connections, explain resistance and source behaviour, and calculate network and sensor outputs.

Chapter 10

Electromagnetism

Connect electric and magnetic fields to conductor forces, a current-balance measurement and the motion of charged beams.

Chapter 11

Nuclear Physics

Connect nuclear evidence and radiation measurements to decay, conservation, mass defect and energy release.
