Course Details

PH 12 - Physics 12

This course is a continuation of the concepts covered in Physics 11. In Physics 12, a problem-solving approach is taken with various topics that include kinematics, vectors, equilibrium forces, circular motion, work and kinetic energy, collisions/momentum, gravitation, electric charges/fields, electric potential, current and resistance, magnetic fields and magnetism, electromagnetism and quantum physics.

Students need to have a solid understanding of kinematics including uniform acceleration, Newton’s Laws, graphical methods, single-dimensional momentum and energy. Physics 12 is recommended for students planning to study sciences at university.
