Physics is the study of how matter behaves, at scales from the very small to the very large. Physics is one of the most fundamental of the sciences, underpinning our understanding of the world and the creation of new technologies. This unit of study forms an introduction to some of the major topics of physics, for students who are new to Physics. You will cover the topics of the language of physics, mechanics, and oscillations and waves. You will develop experimental skills and learn how to observe and measure phenomena and try to explain and predict their behaviour. This unit of study is designed for students who have not studied Physics previously or scored below 65 in HSC Physics.
